Rumor says Darren Till vs. Robert Whittaker could be the fight that headlines the event. Till, who is coming off the back of a win against Kelvin Gastelum, can definitely use another victory to further gain back the love of the fans as well as his confidence, both of which he once lost.

What happened at UFC London?

Till was there in the main event the last time as well, but went on to lose the bout against Jorge Masvidal in a second-round knockout and his career took a southward turn after that till the win against Gastelum. Leon Edwards and Gunnar Nelson featured in the co-main event. Masvidal vs. Till won the Fight of the Night, while Masvidal himself along with Dan Ige won Performance of the Night bonuses.
