TOMMY FURY has threatened to SLAP Jake Paul when the pair come face to face in Dubai.
Fury returns to the ring on Sunday on Floyd Mayweather’s undercard against 5-2 American Paul Bamba.
Mayweather, 45, faces Deji, 25, in the night’s headliner, meaning the YouTuber’s brother KSI, 29, will also be in attendance.
And Paul, 25, is also the special guest, meaning Fury, 23, has two celebrity boxing rivals ringside at his fight.
But he said: “I’m not interested who’s there. There could be a million Jake Paul’s sat ringside.
“My mindset is laser focussed on Paul Bamba, getting him out the way then I’ll jump out ringside and slap him in the face.

“I’m not really bothered about Jake Paul or KSI or whoever they’re with because a load of boys really, with a load of men, that’s what it is.”
Fresh off his win over 47-year-old UFC legend Anderson Silva, Paul landed in Dubai ahead of Fury’s fight with Bamba, 33.
And the American, 25, took the chance to aim a dig at Fury, who has TWICE pulled out against him.
Paul said: “Dubai…It’s about to be a party. I’m ready to step in if Tommy pulls out.”

Fury first withdrew against Paul last December after suffering a rib injury in training.
And for their rescheduled date in August a US visa issue saw the grudge match scrapped once more.
Fury’s travel restriction still persists leaving Paul faced with traveling abroad for the celebrity mega-fight.
