Till vs Rockhold - KSI makes his prediction for Misfits Boxing 22 main event

Tensions are simmering in Manchester with Darren Till and former UFC middleweight champion Luke Rockhold set to meet on Saturday in the main event of Misfits Boxing 22: Ring of Thrones.

The contest will take place at the AO Arena, live on DAZN PPV, in what is the biggest Misfits event of the year so far. 

For Till, it's a chance to continue his impressive showing after producing back-to-back wins following his Misfits debut in January.

Rockhold however will be his toughest test to date with the American still keeping active in various combat sports disciplines following his final UFC fight in 2022. 

The difficulty Rockhold poses is something which Misfits founder KSI acknowledges when he previewed the contest for DAZN. 

"A very tough opponent for Darren Till, it’s going to be a close," he said.

"You could argue that Darren is the favourite because of his run, his form, he’s in good nick right now.

"Luke Rockhold is a tricky guy; I think he’s going to make things a little difficult for Darren."

When pressed for a prediction, KSI is backing Till to emerge victorious and continue a career resurgence inside the Misfits ring. 

"I think as a betting man, I would probably bet on Darren Till winning, but you never know."
