Tommy Fury is set to face MMA veteran Anthony Taylor on the undercard of Jake Paul vs. Tyron Woodley.

Tommy Fury has threatened to "smash in" Anthony 'Pretty Boy' Taylor's face when they meet later this month.

Taylor, an MMA veteran, joked he would take Fury's girlfriend Molly Mae Hague to his own 'Love Island' after fighting the younger brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.

The light-heavyweight prospect took to social media to respond to the taunts posting the following on an Instagram story post.

"Anthony, you ain't going to be so pretty after the 29th mate - I'm going to smash all the front of your face clean in and that's a promise." Fury said.

"And after I've done you, you little Oompa Loompa, I'm coming for your best pal Jake Paul, because the both of you couldn't beat him in the same night together.

"So, I look forward to seeing you on fight week because talk's cheap and I want you to say it to my face, and see how brave you are then.

"I'll see you soon boys, take it easy."

Fury will be a huge favourite to beat Taylor — standing six inches taller than the Californian and holding a 10-inch difference in reach, the 22-year-old is expected to use his size to his advantage. 

The fight is set to take place over six rounds on August 29 with a maximum weight of 190lbs in Cleveland, Ohio.
