10 Loudest Crowd Reactions In UFC History

9. Darren Till's Sweet Return To Liverpool (UFC Liverpool)

Want to know a sure fire way of conjuring up a nuclear reaction from a live audience?

Have the dude who grew up in the place strut down to the ring with one of the most karaoke worthy tunes of all time and watch the magic happen.

Muay Thai kickboxer Darren Till came into UFC Liverpool with a career that had seen him contest the majority of his professional skirmishes in Brazil. In true ironic fashion, he would pick up his UFC debut victory over a Brazilian, Wendell de Oliveira Marques, by KO in the second round.

Three more wins followed, even managing to TKO Donald Cerrone in the first round. Now the stage was set for the UFC's hottest property to return home to hammer home his credentials.

In Stephen 'Wonderboy' Thompson, Till knew he would be facing one of the Welterweight's most tried and tested pair of hands (and feet). That meant that he had to rely on some crowd reinforcement to fire him through the bout.

Setting the tone, he skipped down to the Octagon with Sweet Caroline blasting through the speakers. The Liverpool faithful rallied behind their man in a truly epic experience that couldn't be fully appreciated through a television screen.

Till would win by unanimous decision.
