Tommy Fury sticking with crossover boxing

Tommy Fury and mixed martial artists Darren Till will meet in a crossover boxing match in Manchester, England on January 18th live on DAZN pay-per-view. Misfits Boxing comes flying out of the blocks for 2025 with Fury, who returns to the ring for the first time since his win over KSI last year. Fury has also beaten Jake Paul. MMA hero Till takes on his biggest challenge yet since swapping the octagon for the squared circle.
 
Fury said: “It feels great to, finally, say that I am back! I have been out of the ring far too long, I’ve been getting itchy knuckles, and so I am thrilled to be able to announce my return. This is extra special as I am the A-side and headlining a massive event in my hometown and in front of my fans, at Co-op Live. Till had a good UFC career but he’s stepping into the boxing ring now, against a proper pro, and he will quickly realise that he is out of his depth, and this is not the game for him. I plan on dealing with Till in conclusive fashion and then chasing even bigger fights in 2025.”
 
Till said: “January 18th is my time, my night.”
 
Mams Taylor, Co-President of Misfits Boxing, said: “We are starting 2025 with a serious statement of intent! Fury vs. Till is an absolute banger, one of the biggest crossover fights that can be made, and it will set up the X Series for a record-breaking year. The build-up to this is going to be compelling, it could get personal, and the fight will be one of the most brutal we have ever seen on Misfits. Get your tickets now!” 
 
Kalle Sauerland, Co-President of Misfits Boxing, said: “Fury vs. Till is an absolute Misfits Boxing blockbuster. On January 18th, at the brilliant new Co-op Live, it is Manchester vs. Liverpool - and it’s going to be electric. Fury knows victory sets himself up for a giant year but Till steps into the Misfits Boxing ring for the very first time, straining at the leash and ready to take a giant scalp. We expect an incredibly red-hot atmosphere in the arena with a big undercard to be announced shortly.”
 
Alfie Sharman, VP DAZN said: “What a fantastic way to kick off a big year for MF & DAZN: X Series. Last time we were in Manchester we were there for the unrivalled Prime Card a year or so ago-and I truly believe this fight can match that in terms of noise and viewership. Darren Till is one of the biggest names in British combat sports and Tommy Fury needs no introduction at all. So tune in for this mega fight, only on DAZN January 18th”.
