'I'll just kick you in the face': John Fury sparks melee at wild Darren Till v Tommy Fury press conference
Former UFC fighter Darren Till said he would kick Tommy Fury in the face if he's losing their boxing match on January 18.
In an eventful press conference on Wednesday (AEDT) that ended with a melee of sorts after Fury's father, John, threw water at Till, who is 1-0 as a pro boxer, the former UFC star made an unusual threat.
"At the end of the day, I can't beat you, I'll just kick you in the face in there," Till said.

"How about that? I'm a proper fighter, not a boxer. I don't walk in a room like this and see boxing and go, 'Shit.' I walk in, no one here is a threat to me. Not one person in this room, security, you, your dad are not a threat to me.
"I'm an MMA fighter, so if I want to kick you or elbow you in the face, I will, and no one can do anything about it."

Fury responded: "That's not going to happen Darren, because we're not in a cage now we're in a boxing ring and you're going to find out boxing is different to MMA."
Unperturbed, Till expressed supreme confidence that he will get the job done.
"I just haven't seen anything, to be honest with you," Till said. "I'm just going to obliterate him, I am. I'm going to f-----g absolutely do a number on him, I'm going to walk him down and obliterate him."
The event ended after Fury Snr, threw water from a bottle at Till, who then marched over towards the Furys, before security got in between them.
Till then made security chase him around a few more times before things mellowed.
