John Fury causes chaos again at Tommy Fury vs Darren Till press conference

John Fury was up to his old tricks at a press conference again on Tuesday evening, causing chaos ahead of son Tommy's fight against Darren Till.

The bout, scheduled for January 18 at the Co-op Live arena, was announced on Sunday night and it all kicked off in the press conference.

Former UFC fighter Till was branded "a disgrace to Liverpool" by Fury Sr and after he claimed John hadn't been seen since Tyson was "battered" by Oleksandr Usyk, as well as calling 'TNT' an "emptyhead", the red mist soon descended.

He launched a glass of water in Till's direction and then removed his jacket as security intervened to try and diffuse the situation. Till, as expected, did not take kindly to the action and desperately tried to get across to the Furys as insults were traded.

The duo are squaring off in a heavyweight fight, which will be eight, three minute rounds in the main event of a big Misfits Boxing card.

KSI, who faced off with Fury in his last fight and lost on the judges' scorecards, is promoting the card. He lapped up the wild scenes and plugged how to get tickets for the upcoming event.

Fury is looking to improve his professional record of 10-0, while this will serve as Till's official boxing debut. He has had 24 professional MMA fights, including half under the UFC umbrella.

He left the promotion after suffering three consecutive losses and was slated to make his boxing debut on the undercard of Jake Paul's fight with Mike Tyson until the initial event was cancelled due to the latter's ulcer flare-up.

The Gorilla did step inside a boxing ring in July, taking part in an exhibition match against Mohammad Mutie at Social Knockout 3 in Dubai, Emirates.

Till was awarded the victory by technical knockout and a brawl ensued at the end when the decision was announced.
