Stephen Thompson relishing chance to play the role of the 'bad guy' at UFC Liverpool as he backs himself to derail 'predictable' Darren Till's hype train

EXCLUSIVE: Stephen Thompson predicts there will be fireworks at UFC Liverpool but is confident the Darren Till's hometown crowd won't be partying come the end of the night. Thompson looks to defend his status as the No 1 contender in the welterweight division when he takes on rising star Till in the Liverpudlian's own backyard at the Echo Arena on May 27. And while he expects a tough contest and a hostile reception, the overriding feeling for the American is one of excitement.
