Who is Aaron Chalmers?

Chalmers found fame on reality TV show 'Geordie Shore' but has leveraged that notoriety into a fight career which has seen him compete in multiple disciplines.

Beginning in MMA, he won five of his seven fights and competed for the Bellator promotion. He notably won a fight in his home city of Newcastle as he was cheered on by his former 'Geordie Shore' friends.

Chalmers won his sole professional boxing match, but then lost to Idris Virgo in a Misfits fight.

He has competed three times under exhibition boxing rules, remarkably once against Mayweather. There were no judges scores for the Mayweather bout, as per exhibition rules.

In the Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship, Chalmers has won both of his bouts including against Jack Fincham, a former 'Love Island' contestant.

What is at stake?

For Till, first and foremost, pride. He is an established, veteran fighter who won't want to lose to somebody who might never shake off his reality TV roots.
