And the trash talk quickly flowed as they got up close and personal with one another.
Taylor kicked off the smack talk by saying: “You said something to the king, bring it.”
As he approached Love Island winner Fincham, he said: “I’mma break you [in the] first round. I’mma break you first round.”
Fincham then said: “Listen, I’ve done a lot more [than you].”
But before he could finish his sentence, Taylor shot for a single-leg takedown and began wrestling Fincham.
Fincham, to his credit, managed to stop the takedown before the amassed crowd separated them.
A fired-up Taylor then roared: “I can’t be stopped.”
“You’re a snack to me. You’re a Lunchable I like my dessert first.”
Fincham’s clash with MMA star Taylor – who boxed Tommy Fury last year – will mark his professional boxing debut.
Boxing has long been a passion for Fincham, who told Planet Sport: “I think people are going to be shocked.
“It won’t look like I’ve just stepped in from reality TV, it will look like this geezer knows what he’s doing. And I’ll be able to adapt to anything that’s in front of me.
“That’s part of being from the amateurs really. Sometimes you turn up to shows as a spare and you’d get on the show and you’d fight.
“Sometimes you’d fight three times in a week against three different boys.
“I can adapt, I wouldn’t say I’m one style. And also, you’ve got to remember that the pro game is a lot different to amateur.
“Sometimes you might settle into a new style because amateur is very pitter-patter and very counter-punchy.
“Whereas pros ain’t so much that. I’m still sort of discovering that a bit more now. Training as a pro.”
