By now, it’s crystal clear — John Fury and public events are a recipe for chaos every time.

On Tuesday, Fury Sr. joined his son, Tommy Fury, and former UFC star Darren Till on stage at the kickoff press conference for their Misfits Boxing showdown, scheduled for January 2025 in Manchester.

The atmosphere at the presser intensified when “The Gorilla” fired a barb at John’s other son, Tyson Fury, mocking his first career loss to Oleksandr Usyk in their undisputed heavyweight title bout this past May.

Fury Sr. didn’t take the jab lightly and, consumed by rage, flung a bottle of water at Till, triggering a chaotic, melee-like scene. Security quickly intervened to disperse the escalating tension while Till aggressively pushed forward to confront the Furys.

Fury and Till are set to face off in an eight-round heavyweight showdown, headlining Misfits Boxing 20 on Jan. 18 at the Co-op Live arena in Manchester, England.

“TNT” is coming off a dominant unanimous decision victory over social media sensation KSI at the MF & DAZN: X Series 10 event in October 2023, which came on the heels of his narrow split decision win against Jake Paul. Fury remains undefeated, boasting a perfect 10-0 professional record, with four of those victories coming by knockout.

Meanwhile, “The Gorilla” made his squared circle debut at Social Knockouts 3 in July, facing off in a chaotic bout against Mohammad Mutie that escalated into a takedown and an all-out brawl inside the ring.

Former UFC welterweight and middleweight contender Darren Till will be returning to the boxing ring, this time making his professional debut.

Till, who competed unsuccessfully for the 170-pound gold on MMA’s biggest stage, will face Tommy Fury on Jan. 18 in the main event of a Misfits Boxing card at the Co-op Live in Manchester, England.

Ariel Helwani broke the news on social media this weekend.

Till competed in a boxing ring for the first time earlier this year, defeating Mohammad Mutie at an event in Dubai. The bout was infamous for Mutie being ruled unable to continue due to an injury from what appeared to be rabbit shots to the back of the head, but the two continued to brawl after the bout was declared over.

Darren Till To Make Professional Boxing Debut Against Tommy Fury

Till was once a rising English prospect who joined the UFC as an undefeated fighter in 2015. “The Gorilla” went 5-0-1 to start his UFC run, which included wins over Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone and Stephen “Wonderboy” Thompson.

That earned him a welterweight title shot against Tyron Woodley at UFC 228, which the Scouser lost via second-round submission.

Till went on to get knocked out by Jorge Masvidal in upset fashion, marking the start of “Gamebred’s” sudden rise to superstardom. The Brit then rebounded with a decision win over Kelvin Gastelum in his middleweight debut, but he was unable to continue that winning form at 185 pounds.

“The Gorilla’s” UFC run ended with three straight losses against Robert Whittaker, Derek Brunson, and current middleweight champ Dricus Du Plessis.

The 10-0 Fury, meanwhile — the half-brother of former WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury — will be fighting after being inactive throughout 2024. “”TNT” handed Jake Paul his sole boxing loss in February 2023 before a decision win over KSI eight months later.

UFC star Tom Aspinall has gone head to head with boxer Tommy Fury to see who has the hardest punch, and they’ve captured the best moments on video for Aspinall’s YouTube channel.

At 15-3, Aspinall has been a menace to the UFC’s heavyweight division. He’s young, fast, powerful, and technical. Aspinall encompasses a very well-rounded base while also possessing some impressive physical attributes. He’s ended his last three fights via KO/TKO, and obviously, his hands contain some serious dynamite.

On the other hand, you have Tommy Fury, the younger brother of the infamous boxing star Tyson Fury. Tommy Fury and Aspinall are definitely much different in size and stature, but they still wanted to hang out and take a literal swing at things on a punch machine, which turns punching strength into a numerical high score that shines on the machine.

Tom aspinall and Tommy Fury take a swing at things

Fury has been taking time off to recuperate from surgery on his right hand, so the duo started the competition off with some left hooks. Tyson’s little bro clocked in some left hooks at the scores of 827 and 825 but was just paving the way for Aspinall to outshine him. The UFC interim champion didn’t disappoint and took the round with a left hook that scored a whopping 843 to win the first set.

The next round would feature elbows, and it was ironic because Fury seemingly picked the strike, even though one would imagine the MMA fighter Aspinall would have much more practice at throwing elbows. Surprisingly, Tom Aspinall lost this round with a score of 770, and Fury clinched it with a score of 783.

Next came headbutts. These didn’t score very well, and both men scored around 300. Finally, paying homage to Dana White’s slap-fighting league, came slaps. Aspinal took this final round, slapping his way to a high score of 764.

Do you think Tom Aspinall will ever unify the belts in a match against Jon Jones?
