He wants a 'better fight'

Tommy Fury just announced he has pulled out of his fight with Darren Till with an explosive statement.

The pair were set to face off in a professional boxing bout under KSI's Misfits umbrella in the new year in Manchester. However, the former Love Island star confirmed this morning (6 December) that this will no longer be going ahead.

Fury wrote on instagram stories: "I can't believe l'm writing this but I am now not fighting Darren Till on January 18th 2025. For the one simple reason being that Darren has stated over and over that he does not want to abide by professional boxing rules and that if he is loosing the fight he will resort to kicking and other stupid MMA tactics.

"I am a professional boxer, I have been out of the ring for over a year and I wanted this to be a great BOXING fight for the fans. I have wasted weeks in training camp. We are working hard to get a new opponent and date. I promise to get a better opponent and better fight for you guys.

Good news around the corner."
