Fury alleged that Till ‘refuses to ‘abide by professional boxing rules’ following a threat
The outspoken Till was quick to respond to Fury – the younger brother of former heavyweight world champion Tyson – labelling him and father John s**thouses and insisting that he didn’t need to ‘throw kicks’ to win the contest during a heated press conference.
‘All of yas, ya f***ing *****,’ he continued, before storming off.

During the first press conference for the fight, Till threatened to kick the younger Fury brother in the head inside the ring. That to prompted Fury, whose last fight was a unanimous decision win against Youtuber-turned-boxer KSI last October, to drop out of the contest.
The former UFC fighter finished his opponent with his third knockdown of the fight, with Taylor stepping in for Tommy Fury after the former Love Island star was left bothered by Till’s threats.
Former Love Island star Fury announced at the start of December that his fight against Till would not longer be going ahead, alleging the ex-UFC welterweight title challenger refuses to ‘abide by professional boxing rules’.

‘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.
