Darren Till has admitted he’d love to potentially fight Gary Neville or Cristiano Ronaldo – and has criticised Roy Keane for rowing with an Ipswich fan on Sunday.
The 31-year-old is currently in the spotlight after it was recently announced that he’d be fighting Tommy Fury.
Till has made his name in MMA but has since opted to switch to boxing.
He won his first fight against Mohammad Mutie back in July, beating his opponent via knockout.

And Till, speaking to Norske Bettingsider, has admitted he’d relish the chance to face either Neville or Ronaldo in the ring.
The Liverpool superfan said, when asked about his dream opponent: “Gary Neville because me and him have had a Twitter beef. He doesn’t like me. Got a little bit of beef with Gary. I don’t hate the guy.
“But yeah, it’d probably be Gary Neville or Cristiano Ronaldo, because he seems like a big, tough fellow, Cristiano.
“I’d like to see his speed and his power. Seems like a very explosive man.
“He’s obviously ripped to the gills, isn’t he? You know, he doesn’t drink Coca-Cola or anything like that.
“I need to take a leaf out of his book.”
Till then decided to blast Keane for his behaviour, even though he’s full of admiration for the Manchester United icon.
On Sunday, after 1-1 draw between Ipswich and the Red Devils at Portman Road, Keane decided to confront of a supporter who had been heckling him in the stands.
The former United skipper could be overheard asking the fan whether he wanted to meet him in the car park.
Yet Till feels Keane was wrong to confront the supporter.
He added: “I don’t think he should be saying to the fan, Come to the car park,’ because let’s have it right. He’s never going to have a straightener in the car park.
“His team isn’t going to let him. And obviously the fan – that’s just not how it’s going to go down.

“I respect Roy Keane, and I respect him so much. He’s still of the old school, you know, even the way he speaks on that Overlap show.
“But address it? Yeah. Call him to the car park? No.
“Obviously, if it was me calling to the car park – yeah. But I’m a f*****g fighter, and that’s different.
“But yeah, I think you should address it more like Sergio Ramos did that time.

“Remember when all the fans were kicking the cars outside, and Sergio stood on business? I think it’s sort of a thing like that.
“But, it’s never gonna end up in the car park, so there’s no point.”
