They came face-to-face two months out from the fight in a heated press conference and Till vowed to kick Fury in the face if he is losing.
And the former UFC title challenger posted a video online practising high kicks in what could be a warning to Fury.
But if Till was to perform the illegal boxing move, he would be disqualified and likely issued a financial penalty.
Although the Muay Thai specialist seemed to care little when revealing his plan to boot Fury.
He said: “At the end of the day, I can’t beat you, I’ll just kick you in the face in there. 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, ‘s***.’ 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.”

But Fury, 25, responded: “Well that’s not going to happen is it, Darren?
“Because we ain’t in the cage now, we’re in the boxing ring and you’re going to find out that boxing is very different to MMA.”
Till, 31, hit back: “Well it obviously is, how are you going to stop me?
“If I’m losing the fight, I’m going to kick you straight in the face. You won’t know what’s hit you.”
Till left the UFC off the back of three straight defeats and had a boxing match in Dubai last year.
Meanwhile Fury beat YouTube’s biggest boxing stars in KSI, 31, and Jake Paul, 27, in 2023.
