An interesting match
Till last fought professionally in MMA at UFC 282 where he suffered a submission loss to Dricus du Plessis. Till was one of the UFC’s top welterweights but he has gone winless in his last three consecutive fights and now, “The Gorilla” is trying to test his mettle in the boxing ring, facing off against the experienced Chavez Jr.
Chaevz Jr., on the other hand, was the former WBC Middleweight world champion with a massive pro boxing resume. He has a pro record of 53-6-1, with 34 of his total wins coming by way of knockout.
Paul vs. Tyson will take place on July 20 and will be aired on Netflix.
