It’s official, Nicolas Dalby and Darren Till is the latest bout to be added to the highly anticipated UFC Fight Night 76 event.

Dalby (14-0) was thrust into the limelight after his stunning knockout victory over Sergei Churilov in European promotion Cage Warriors in 2014. That spectacular head kick KO saw him succeed Cathal Pendred as the promotion’s welterweight champion.

The Danish fighter followed this win up by successfully defending his belt against Mohsen Bahari before signing to the big leagues. He won his promotional debut by scoring a somewhat lacklustre split decision victory over Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos at UFC Fight Night 67 in Brazil.

Till (13-0) made his UFC debut on the same card, but his was a little more memorable. The Liverpudlian stopped Wendell de Oliveira Marques in the second round with vicious elbows. Till has nine knockout victories and two submissions on his record.

At the time of writing. the confirmed bouts for the UFC Fight Night 76 in Dublin are as follows;

Joseph Duffy vs. Dustin Poirier
Norman Parke vs. Reza Madadi
Cathal Pendred vs. Tom Breese
Scott Askham vs. Krzysztof Jotko
Bubba Bush vs. Garreth McLellan
Nicolas Dalby vs.Darren Till
