    Tommy Fury says he never watches Love Island and has not even seen series he starred in with girlfriend Molly-Mae

    TOMMY FURY revealed he never watches Love Island – and has not even seen the series he starred in alongside girlfriend Molly-Mae. The unbeaten boxer – brother to heavyweight legend Tyson – went into the hit ITV series in 2019.

    He came runner-up with now partner Molly-Mae, with the happy couple now expecting their first child together.
    But Fury admitted he is not exactly a big fan of the show, either before or after his successful stint, but credits it for building his career.
    He said in an interview with Tom Moore: “I never watched Love Island before doing it and I’ve not watched it since, didn’t even watch my own series back.
    “But it was one of those things, Love Island has given me the platform of a world champion already.

    “It put me out there, it helped me step out the shoes of being Tyson’s little brother, which was all I was called growing up, which isn’t a bad thing.
    “It’s amazing to be related to the best fighter there’s ever been, in my opinion. So that was amazing but it helped born me.
    “Everybody knows me now for Tommy Fury and what I’m like and my own personality.”
    Fury went into the villa as a 2-0 boxer and has since added six more wins to his record.

    Over the last two years, he has been linked with a massive celebrity grudge match against YouTuber-turned boxer Jake Paul.
    He was forced to twice pull out of their first two scheduled fights after suffering a rib injury and US visa issue.
    But the two are set to announce the latest rehashed date of February 25 in Saudi Arabia.
    And Fury, 23, said he will focus on a traditional path to boxing titles after a quick cash grab bout with Paul, 26.
    He said: “All I see with Jake Paul is a business.
    “If you want me to beat a man that can’t fight and throw millions of pounds in my face, no problem, sign me up.
    “I describe it all the time as being on route 66, I need to stop off and fill my camper van up and get back on the road.
    “I am on a straight and narrow road to world titles but you want me to take a slight detour for an awful lot of fuel, pick that up and jump back on the road.

    “And that’s all I’m doing here. It is a business at the end of the day, you’ve gotta to use your head and every fighter in my position would take that fight if it got offered to them.”

    Match of the Day prankster Dan Jarvis who tricked Gary Lineker with porn noise reveals how he did it

    SEX noise prankster Daniel “Jarvo” Jarvis told how he beat security by marching into a football stadium with TV crew — and even helped himself to beers in a hospitality box.He and a pal later activated a £20 phone — one of the world’s loudest — to pump moans around the live Match of the Day studio.

    The stunt had BBC host Gary Lineker in stitches and stunned millions watching Tuesday’s Wolves v Liverpool FA Cup replay.
    YouTuber Jarvo, 30, wore black jeans and coat to blend in as he and the pal followed a TV crew into Wolves’s Molineux stadium a day before kick-off, nodding at security who let them pass unchecked.
    The pair used double-sided tape to stick the gold Yepen mobile to a 7ft wall on set, and changed the ringtone to the raunchy soundtrack.
    Jarvo told The Sun: “These things are all about confidence.“We got in because we made it look like we were meant to be there, so no one bats an eyelid.
    READ MORE ON FOOTBALL
    “If you hesitate, then you’ll get asked questions. But people from Wolves thought we were with the TV, and vice versa.
    “TV crews don’t dress particularly smartly so I fitted right in. There were about four staff working in the studio. We tried not to speak to them much, just saying ‘How are you?’
    “Our plan was to strap it under a chair or the table, but they might’ve got suspicious if we started moving stuff around.
    “So we strapped it to the top of the wall and because of the colour no one could see it. We had a cheers with the beers afterwards then it was a waiting game, hoping no one had found the phone.”

    A YouTube video posted during Tuesday’s match showed Jarvo call the phone to trigger the X-rated noise.
    He added: “I was at my cousin’s and couldn’t believe it worked. It was hilarious. We’ve tried this before and it didn’t work. But this must’ve been the magic of the FA Cup.”
    Jarvo and his mate spent 90 minutes inside Molineux. They filmed a jokey interview in the mix zone and posed in the dugouts.

    Jarvo, known as Jarvo69 online, added: “Staff didn’t say anything. I was tempted to jump in the home changing room ice bath but didn’t have a towel. I also used the toilet in the away dressing room, which is terrible — it’s like a PE changing room from the ’90s. After we planted the phone, we had a beer and got out.”
    Jarvo rang the phone at 1am on Tuesday to check it had not been found. He then buzzed it around 12 times from a burner device after the BBC went live at 7.30pm.
    The noise drowned out Lineker as he cut to the commentary team.
    He could barely be heard saying: “It is toasty in this studio. I am not sure if someone is sending something on somebody’s phone.”
    Jarvo streamed his calls, cracking up with laughter while ringing his mate who was inside Molineux recording the studio reaction.
    It showed pundit Paul Ince pointing to the noise’s source, while crew searched for it to no avail.
    Jarvo, of Gravesend, Kent, said: “There is a short delay with the TV so I was worried it didn’t work, but the camera went back to Lineker at the perfect time.
    “Those situations are so funny because no one has been in it before. You could see they were panicking but Lineker is such a pro and handled it really well. Everyone seems to have loved it. I feel like we’ve cheered up the nation a bit at a bad time.”
    Jarvo tried to prank BT Sport’s coverage of Fulham v Tottenham in 2021 but was let down by that phone’s sound quality.
    The incident also sparked a police alert.

    This time he bought five phones after searching for the world’s loudest mobiles.
    Man Utd fan Jarvo said: “This Yepen worked a treat. We’ve still got a few so TV and the Premier League better watch out!”
    Police have said it was not a criminal offence.
    The BBC apologised to viewers who may have been offended but Lineker said the corporation had nothing to say sorry for.
    He shared a picture of the phone after it was discovered and said: “As sabotage goes, it was quite amusing.”
    Liverpool won 1-0 and Lineker said at half-time: “Harvey Elliott’s goal was a screamer . . . which was not the only one we’ve had tonight.”

    Yesterday talkSPORT pundit Ally McCoist joked he’d never heard such a noise in his life, adding: “I’ve been doing it wrong for 40 years!”
    Jarvo added: “This prank will go down in history. I’ve always got things planned. I can’t tell you what’s next.” More

    The presenter said he enjoyed his half-time analysis with sex-filled innuendo – pictured The Sun’s coverage of the story
    But Gary, 62, who memorably had an on-pitch “accident” during England’s 1990 World Cup opener, joked: “If you told me yesterday morning that I’d be on the front page of The Sun, involved with a porn ­scandal, I’d have s*** myself — again!”
    Gary added: “I thought it was funny, and the YouTube prankster has shown his work.
    “It was that loud that I couldn’t really hear myself think, or what the other guys were saying, and realised people could probably hear it at home so I knew I had to both keep it together, whilst also addressing the matter.
    “In these situations, you have to keep your head.

    “Yes, it’s funny but you can’t overwhelm the show — you can’t ignore it.
    “But, and after the studio manager had located the strap-on phone, I started to have a bit of fun with it all.
    “So at half-time every question I asked about the analysis, my comments were some kind of reference to it.
    “Things like ‘Wolves huffed and puffed’ or ‘the only goal was a screamer — and not the only screamer we had’, and ‘Liverpool pressed really hard in trying to get behind them’ — all that kind of thing.
    Most read in Football
    “It was daft but it really did amuse me. And once I realised it was a prank, I knew that if I started laughing I probably wouldn’t have stopped.
    “It was the most surreal and one of the strangest things I’ve ever encountered in broadcasting.”
    Prankster Jarvo, a serial pitch invader, had broken into the studio and activated a sexy sounds ring tone on a mobile phone, which he hid on the set.
    He then called the phone during Gary’s studio segments at the Wolves v Liverpool FA Cup replay at Molineux on Tuesday.
    The BBC later issued a po-faced apology.
    But Gary questioned that decision.
    He said: “I’m not sure why the BBC apologised because it’s not our fault obviously.
    “It’s a security issue, and there is a serious side to it; if someone can do that, they can do something else with something that could be more dangerous.
    “But, in this instance, I felt that universally people were finding it really funny.

    Prankster Dan revealed that he and a pal brazenly knocked back a beer from a hospitality box before getting out of the TV set.
    He told The Sun: “All the boxes were open and we just walked in there – there was no one to stop us.
    “We both had a Corona and just chilled out.
    “In those situations, you just want to be as relaxed as possible and be yourself, so that’s what we did.

    “We did a cheers with the beers after getting out of there.  It was hilarious.
    “At that point we didn’t know we’d nailed it as there was still some time to wait.”
    The honking noises started just moments before the FA Cup third round replay was about to get underway.
    It was first played as Lineker went live to co-commentator Shearer who was waiting to speak to him in the stadium.
    Lineker started laughing and said: “I don’t know who’s making that noise.
    “I don’t know if somebody is sending a joke on someone’s phone, I don’t know if you heard it at home.”
    Being the professional that he is, Lineker continued to present the show impeccably despite the sound simply not going away.
    It kept stopping and then restarting almost immediately.
    A BBC spokesperson said: “We apologise to any viewers offended during the live coverage of the football this evening.
    “We are investigating how this happened.”
    However, former football star Lineker insisted that the BBC has “nothing to apologise for” after the controversy.
    The 62-year-old said: “The BBC have issued some sort of apology, I know not why. It’s certainly got nothing to apologise for.
    “It was quite hard to carry on the pre-match build-up and take it seriously when this was going on in the background.
    “As pranks go, it was a good one and credit to them. It was funny I thought.”
    Once the game had started, Shearer joked that it was coming from Danny Murphy’s phone with the ex-Liverpool man also in the studio.
    But Lineker took to Twitter to reveal exactly what had happened.
