Tommy Fury has withdrawn from a bout with Darren Till that was scheduled on January 18, 2019.
The plan was for them to spar with each other in a boxing battle hosted by KSI’s Misfits group in Manchester next month, but that suddenly doesn’t seem realistic.
Fury accused his opponent of not wanting to follow boxing rules when he announced on his Instagram Stories that he would not be fighting Till.
Fury tweeted, “I can’t believe I’m writing this but I am now not fighting Darren Till on January 18th 2025,” in an attempt to let fans know that there was “good news around the corner.” For the sole reason that Darren has repeatedly declared that he will use kicking and other foolish MMA techniques if he is losing the fight and that he does not wish to follow professional boxing rules.
“As a professional boxer who hasn’t competed in over a year, I wanted the spectators to have an amazing BOXING bout. Training camp has been a waste of weeks for me. We’re putting a lot of effort into finding a new opponent and date. I swear to provide you guys a better opponent and a better battle.”
Till has been saying that he would ‘kick them in the face’ if they punched him in the run-up to the fight that is now over.
“If I’m in that fight and I’m losing, I’m going to go ‘right, I’m kicking him in the face now,’ and you ain’t gonna do s**t,'” Till stated during a news conference.
He also discussed his sparring experience with Tyson Fury with Norske Bettingsider, claiming that he was able to “just take him down easily” and that Tommy wouldn’t pose a threat to him if he could accomplish it.
“This is the problem. When it comes to facing a boxer, Till stated, “I’m a realist.”
“Neither Tommy nor John posed a threat to me during that news appearance. Because I’ll kick someone in the face if I turn when I want to and they punch me. Yes, I will.
“I can raise my leg as fast as a jab.” They’ll be in serious trouble after I take them down and kick them in the face.”
Till referred to Tommy as “the biggest s**thouse I have ever met in my life” and stated that “never in a million years would I throw a head kick in a fight that is only boxing rules” in response to Fury’s declaration that the fight was off.
He said in a social media video that he was merely attempting to build up the fight and that his threats to kick Tommy Fury in the face were a “mental warfare tactic.”
Fury was ‘divvy’ and ‘being knocked spark out’ anyhow, he continued, so he wouldn’t even need to kick him.
“Tommy Fury, you are the biggest s**thouse I have ever met in my life. Never call yourself a fighter again. I sold the fight to make more money for you and me. You are a complete jerk who fights like a s**thouse. You and your dad are s**thouses. I don’t need to throw kicks; you were getting knocked out, you divvy. We made money on this fight because I built it, not you. You should be fighting and giving me credit. over and out. Nobody wants to battle me. “What are you up to, big fat dummy Jake Paul?”
This has just “confirmed what I said,” according to the MMA fighter, who claimed to have been telling “everyone that Tommy was going to pull out regardless of anything” and to have “f**king known it since the press conference.”
