But following a hand injury, he was forced out but now returns on January 18 on DAZN PPV against ex-UFC star Darren Till.

Promoter Kalle Sauerland headed up the negotiations to bring Fury back to Misfits - which homes to crossover-style bouts.

And there was even speculation he could rematch KSI next.

Sauerland revealed Till was always the opponent for Fury's return - but admitted talk for a KSI rematch has taken place.

He told SunSport: "We've discussed that.

"This one was never the intention, I saw some rumours around it but never discussed the idea was always Tommy Fury versus Darren Till and that's more or less it.

"That fight (KSI vs Fury rematch) can happen down the road but at the same time, I never look past a mega-fight."

KSI has also not returned since defeat to Fury, his first loss in the ring.

He was due to fight 7-0 YouTuber Slim Albaher, 30, and former MMA fighter Anthony Taylor, 34, in a two-on-one handicap bout.

KSI was also forced out with a hand injury but is now eyeing a return in the first quarter of 2025.

Sauerland added: "It will be early part of next year. Few weeks off an announcement.

"There's different types of opponents in the running. Nobody without a combat sports background.

"Sorry I can't give you more clues than that."
