Curtis, 23, has been training hard for his first match that's set to take place in the Troxy in London next month.

On Saturday, he headed to an amateur boxing match to get a feel for the sport and was joined by Tommy and his girlfriend Molly-Mae.

The trio attended The Queensbury Boxing League with a camera crew and were surrounded by security guards in the VIP area.

However, Curtis' Irish girlfriend Maura, who worked as a ring girl before starring in Love Island, skipped the event.

A photo shared on Instagram revealed the reality stars posing with a fan, as a source told Sun Online: "

Curtis is gearing up to enter the ring for his first white collar amateur bout.

"They've started filming in Epsom, and Tommy and Molly were there with him ring side, but Maura wasn't there - which is unusual since she used to be a ring girl.

"They were in the VIP area and security were trying to stop people taking pictures of them."

However, Curtis and Maura reunited on Sunday at celebrity hot spot Sheesh in Chigwell.

The couple dined with fellow Love Islanders Joe Garratt and Lucie Donlan, and Curtis showed off his slimmer figure

Curtis previously touched on the couple's struggle to make time for each other in an interview with Sun Online.

He said their busy schedules appear to be keeping them apart - something that's only gotten worse with 28-year-old Maura signing up to Dancing On Ice.

The Love Island hunk said: "We would love to go on holiday together but it’s not happening.

"Maura has Dancing On Ice and hopefully she makes it to the final. And then I’m working solidly up until July.

"I’ve got a pantomime at the end of the year, then I’m on AJ’s tour and I’ve got the Greatest Dancer. I’m also working on another show too. I love to work."

Curtis' new programme, dubbed The Boxer And Ballroom, is set to air before Christmas.
