It’s a bout that has seen plenty of trash talk during a heated build-up that required a heavy security presence to ensure the pair didn’t come to blows during the pre-fight press conference.
And, speaking to the Misfits Boxing YouTube channel, Till said that his opponent is far from the most popular fighter he’s faced during his combat sports career.
“I don’t think anyone really likes him,” Till suggested.
“He’s full of himself. If he was a bar of chocolate, he’d eat himself. I don’t think he’s got any respect for me, to be honest with you. I’m gonna punch a hole through his face for it. I see the way he talks and the way he is. It’s just so arrogant, and I just don’t think he has any respect for me.
“He tries to undermine me, and undermine my skillset and stuff like that, which I haven’t done to him. I’ve called him names and stuff like that, but when it comes down to the nutty gritty, for me, I respect his accolades and what he’s done. I just don’t think that he respects me.”

That supposed disrespect, Till claims, will prove to be Rockhold’s undoing on Saturday night when they meet in the main event at the AO Arena in Manchester.
Till seemed to find his groove inside the Misfits Boxing ring in his unanimous decision victory over fellow former UFC athlete Darren Stewart last time out, and he predicted that it would be a bad night for Rockhold when they face off on Saturday night.
“He just doesn’t know what’s gonna happen on Saturday,” he explained.
“I’m gonna be too fast, too quick, too powerful. He says he can hit me and all that. He’s gonna hit me, but he ain’t gonna rock me, or anything like that.
“I’m gonna put on an absolute clinic for this man. I set a pace they can’t handle. I’m gonna properly get him out of there. He’s just gonna get the shock of his life.”
