UFC middleweight contenders Darren Till and Jack Hermansson have verbally agreed to a matchup on July 23 in the Octagon's return to London, England.
MMAnytt's Matias Andres was the first to report the news of the matchup being in the works, although the promotion has yet to officially confirm anything regarding the booking themselves. Till is 1-4 in his last five appearances and will try to rebound from a third-round submission loss to Derek Brunson back at UFC Vegas 36. Hermansson meanwhile is 2-3 in his last five fights and is coming off of a split-decision defeat to Sean Strickland at UFC Vegas 47.
