Fury vs Till: What was said?

“It feels great to finally be able to say I’m back. I’ve been out of the ring for far too long,” Fury said.

“I’m getting itchy knuckles and that’s why I’m happy to announce my return.

“This is extra special because I’m the A-side and I’m headlining a big event in my hometown and in front of my fans.

“Till had a good UFC career, but he steps into the boxing ring now, against a real professional, and he will quickly realize that he is out of his league, and this is not the game for him.

“I plan to deal convincingly with Till and then pursue even bigger fights in 2025.”
