Misfits Fans Allege Robbery as Boxer Falls Out of the Ring in Long-Drawn Battle at Till vs. Rockhold

The Misfits have been going wild with their numbered 22nd event inside the AO Arena in Manchester, England. While some thrilling scraps have stolen the spotlight, controversy has also been a major theme of the night. And with Luke Rockhold and Darren Till still yet to make their walkouts, fan frustration has already boiled over—this time during the Ty Mitchell vs. Sean Hempell fight.

Chaos began earlier in the prelims when Carla Jade had a heated post-fight clash with ‘Lil Bellsy.’ Things escalated further in the Chase DeMoor vs. Natan Marcoń showdown, which ended abruptly after a doctor stopped the fight following a crushing uppercut from DeMoor. Ending up in a post-fight brawl between them. But if anyone thought the drama would cool down afterward, they were mistaken.

The third bout of the night saw Ty Mitchell and Sean Hempell battle through all 10 rounds for the MFB Pro Super Middleweight Title. Fans, however, grew restless as Mitchell relied heavily on the clinch throughout the fight. To make matters worse, there was even a moment when he fell out of the ring, stalling the action and testing the patience of the Manchester crowd.

One fan quickly jumped online to write, “Ty Mitchell fell off the ring!!” after the English boxer unexpectedly tumbled outside the ropes. It didn’t take long for another to chime in, sarcastically calling him “the smartest time waster.” That sentiment only grew louder when a fan added, “He was hurt to the body clearly and faked a fall to get extra time.”

Now, it’s true Mitchell was hurt, but whether he slipped out of the ring deliberately to buy recovery time remains pure speculation. Still, frustration shifted from Mitchell to the officials when one user blasted the decision, posting: “Daylight robbery. Clueless judges!” after the split decision win was announced in Mitchell’s favor.

But that wasn’t the end of it. Another fan went as far as labeling the entire event rigged, writing: “RIGGED A–S FIGHT! F–K MISFITS.” Meanwhile, a more detailed critique surfaced as one fan asked, “How there wasn’t a point deduction after those last clinches is blasphemy,” calling out the referees for ignoring repeated holding.
