Liverpool's 20th title parade turns tense as Darren Till narrowly escapes accident and shares footage

Former UFC welterweight title challenger Darren Till has shed light on the horrific accident that took place in Merseyside during Liverpool Football Club's 20th league title-winning parade.

Till showcases a professional MMA record of 18-5-1. He decided to step away from the UFC after suffering five defeats in six fights, with future middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis handing him his final loss in the promotion in 2022. He has since found success in the sport of boxing, picking up wins against Mohammad Mutie, Anthony Taylor, and Darren Stewart.

'The Gorilla' is a massive supporter of his local football team, Liverpool FC, and he decided to join the celebrations as thousands of fans flooded the streets for the parade held on May 26 (Sunday).

However, to his surprise, the celebrations turned tense as a car plowed into the crowd in the streets, injuring more than 50 people, with 27 people requiring immediate medical attention and two people, including one child, sustaining serious injuries. Till wrote in a now-deleted X post that he narrowly escaped, as he had left the exact spot five minutes before the accident occurred.
