Tommy Fury has called out two fighters just days after withdrawing from his planned fight with former UFC star Darren Till.

Fury, 25, was due to fight Till in Manchester on January 18 on a Misfits Boxing card but last week pulled out of the event.

He withdrew because of threats from MMA fighter Till, who vowed to kick his opponent in the head if he was losing the fight. However, it is yet to be officially confirmed if the Fury vs Till fight is off.

"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. I promise to get a better opponent and better fight for you guys," said Fury, in a statement released last week.

It was due to be Fury's first fight since his controversial points decision win over KSI in 2023, a win which extended his professional boxing record to 10-0.

Fury, the half-brother of heavyweight legend Tyson Fury, remains determined to make his return to the ring next year and has now called out both Jake Paul and Logan Paul for his next fight.

It comes after Logan branded Fury 'pathetic' on his podcast and claimed the British fighter was avoiding a potential rematch with Jake, who he beat via split decision in 2023.

Jake, meanwhile, has previously claimed Fury was offered $8 million (£6.2m) to have a rematch with him on Netflix but rejected the offer, with Paul going on to fight - and beat - heavyweight legend Mike Tyson instead.

"I've just woken up and saw Logan Paul talking on his podcast yet again about how I don't want to fight Jake and I'm running scared," Fury said in a video posted on Instagram.

"I saw Jake tweeting the other day how he offered me X, Y and Z on Netflix.

"I just wanted to come on here and say that nobody is running from that fight. I beat you once already, I handed you your first loss. The minute you stepped up and fought a real boxer, you lost – fair and square.

"I can give you a second loss, that's not a problem, but let's talk some serious numbers down the phone. If you want to get in touch, you know where I am – it's as easy as that. I can come back after a year and beat the pair of you."

Paul has since fired back at Fury with his own post on social media, commenting on X: "What absolute muppet. Buddy you just pulled out of a fight for the 3rd time. You have ZERO credibility.

"I offered you $8M dollars and you ran away from it. And now you got dumped by Molly [Mae Hague], getting sued by DAZN and still can’t call a shot without your dad. GTFOH."

SPORTbible has reached out to DAZN for comment.
