Chalmers has transitioned from TV to boxing and then to MMA before settling on the most violent of combat sports in bare-knuckle boxing.‌And while he believes Till might expect a soft touch on his BKFC debut, Chalmers insists he can leave a lasting impression. "I was offered the fight eight weeks ago and I personally think they were looking for a bigger name," he said. "I heard there were a few big ex-ex-UFC fighters they were trying to get in but maybe they priced themselves out.‌"Maybe I'm a name they think is an easy fight to win and then he goes on to the Mike Perry fight. Am I just, in their eyes, a fight to give him a win? Let's be honest, everyone thinks Till's just going to walk through us, but that's not the cloth I'm cut from. There's no way I'm going down without a f***ing serious fight."I'm the only crossover person who has gone from reality TV to fighting MMA who is now fighting one of the biggest names in the UFC a few years ago. It just shows how far my career has pushed on. Till is an absolute beast, a f***Ing huge name and it's a big fight.Article continues below"I still think that I'm going to win the fight. Bare-knuckle is a f***ing mad sport and one shot changes everything. I'm under no illusion as to what Darren Till brings to the table. He is a horrible, awkward, strong southpaw, so I know I'm going to have my work cut out for 10 minutes, or however long the fight lasts."I always prepare for the worst, so whatever doesn't happen, it's a bonus. Obviously with Till, I know I'm going to get hit, I know I'm going to get f***ing hit hard. Probably nine times out of ten, I'm going to have some serious cuts, but so is he. Whatever can happen to me can also happen to him."Choose Daily Mirror as a 'Preferred Source' on Google News for quick access to the news you value.‌UFCAaron Chalmers
