Frank Warren jokes Tommy Fury is now 3-0 after boxer ‘stole someone’s bird’ on Love Island

BOXING promoter Frank Warren joked that Tommy Fury moved to 3-0 after he “stole someone's bird” on Love Island.

The brother of former heavyweight champion Tyson temporarily put his ring career on hold this week to enter the Love Island villa.

Having already beaten Jevgenijs Andrejevs and Callum Ide before joining the Reality TV show, his promoter claimed the 2-0 fighter picked up another win last night.

Tommy chose to couple up with Lucie Donlan, leaving fellow contestant Joe Garratt without a partner.

When quizzed if the light-heavyweight boxer had “stole someone’s bird yesterday” the veteran promoter responded: “He’s now 3-0.”

 

Warren - who promotes both Furys - said Love Island can help the 20-year-old build a name for himself away from his famous brother.

Warren said: "He is going to step out of Tyson's shadow, that's for sure as far as recognition is concerned.

"The British public will certainly know who he is, it's been great for his profile.

"If he continues to box - and I hope he does - it will improve his profile, then he becomes more of an attraction, sells more tickets, there is more awareness about him and that is great for any promotion.

"It's great for boxing. For me, anything that can get more eyeballs to boxing is brilliant for our sport.

“It seems like good fun, obviously a programme that is watched a lot by youngsters and brings a new generation to the sport."
