TOMMY FURY revealed his opponent Anthony Taylor APOLOGISED for dragging his girlfriend Molly-Mae Hague into their feud.
Fury faces Taylor, an MMA fighter and sparring partner of Jake Paul’s, on Sunday night.
Paul, 24, headlines the bill against ex-UFC champion Tyron Woodley, 39 and has been in talks to fight Fury afterwards.
It came after they rivalled online with Love Island star Molle-Mae involved in the spat.
Taylor has latched on and also tried to get under Fury’s skin by mentioning Molle-Mae to insult the 6-0 light-heavyweight.
But in a private U-turn, the Bellator lightweight messaged Fury on Instagram to say sorry for his antics.
A message read: “Hey bro heads up I won’t bring up molly mae any more. My apologies.”
Fury, 22, branded Taylor, 32, a ‘clown’ for the DM as they later went face-to-face at the pre-fight press conference.
The Brit, brother to WBC heavyweight champion Tyson, opened up about the DM but vowed to make Taylor pay for his words.
Fury told iFL TV: “The man’s been messaging me, private messaging me though Instagram.
“Sent me a message this morning while I was sat with a couple of guys from Frank Warren saying, ‘Oh, I’m not going to mention Molly anymore, I apologise, bro.
“All that sort of s*** private messaging me. This man’s a fool, imagine messaging the person you’re going to fight in a couple of days in fight week saying all of this.
“The man’s an idiot, he’s looking for a bit more clout, he’s a nobody. I’m going to get in there and cave this man’s face clean in.
“Because the things he’s said can’t go unnoticed and that’s just the way it is so the more he says the bigger the hole it is for him to get in really.
“The hole I’m going to put him in because he’s messing with a different animal here.
“You see the size difference today, I’m not just a big dope who’s in the ring I know what I’m doing and it’s dangerous for him.
“So we’re going to see Sunday night.”
