UFC Liverpool weigh-in results: Darren Till misses weight by 3.5 lbs

Get the Full StoryDarren Till went way over the welterweight limit for his headlining UFC bout against Stephen Thompson. There were a couple of issues during the UFC Liverpool weigh-ins, which saw two athletes miss weight, including the headlining fighter in Darren Till.

Till, the hometown favorite that s being built up as possibly the promotion s next big star, unfortunately botched his weight cut and came in at 174.5 lbs. The 25-year-old has always been one of the biggest fighters in the division, but even with the one pound allowance for non-title fights, he still came in 3.5 lbs over the welterweight limit.

His opponent, Stephen Thompson, came in exactly at 171 lbs. The main event is still not finalized as of this writing, but should Wonderboy decide to accept and proceed with the bout, he is expected to receive a sizable portion of Till s purse.

Also missing weight was another Liverpool native in Molly McCann, who is coming in for her UFC debut. The former Cage Warriors champion tipped the scales at 127 lbs, which is a pound over the flyweight limit.
