Darren Till may get an opportunity to avenge his submission loss to Derek Brunson at UFC Vegas 36.
That’s because Brunson, 42, recently signed a multi-fight deal with Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship (BKFC) and will make his in-ring debut at the upcoming BKFC “Fight Night” event on Fri., Nov. 20, 2026 inside Myrtle Beach Sports Center in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
“I’m excited to compete again,” Brunson said. “I’ve been training for the past three years, getting my younger guys ready. Time to get back out there and have some fun. I have a very strong grind in me right now.”
Brunson has not competed since losing to Rodolfo Vieira at ADXC 7 back in late 2024.
“We’re honored to have Derek Brunson sign with BKFC,” said David Feldman, Founder and President of BKFC. “We’ve long admired his world class skills and can’t wait to see him in the Squared Circle. We’re positive he’s going to make some serious noise fighting for BKFC.”
The 33-year-old Till, who joined BKFC back in April, has yet to comment on the addition of his former foe.
