Fury withdrew from the January 18 fight, citing Till's comments about potentially using MMA tactics in the ring.

  • Tommy Fury announced the cancellation of his January 18 boxing match against Darren Till, citing concerns over Till's remarks about possibly using MMA techniques during the fight.
  • Till had previously joked at a press conference about kicking Fury if the fight didn't go his way, but later clarified it was a mental tactic and he had no intention of breaking boxing rules.
  • Fury, who holds a 10-0 professional boxing record, stated he wants his return to the ring to be a proper boxing match and is now seeking a new opponent and fight date.
  • Former WBO champion Billy Joe Saunders has offered to replace Fury as Till's opponent, though Till has not yet responded to the challenge.
  • Speculation arose online about Fury potentially pulling out to pursue a more lucrative rematch with Jake Paul, but there is no evidence to support this claim.
