The truth has finally been revealed and it's not what fans thought as the pair are heading to Old Trafford
Tommy Fury and Liam Payne sent the internet into a frenzy when they appeared to hint that they would be going head-to-head in the boxing ring. On Wednesday , Manchester boxer and former Love Island star Tommy and former One Direction singer Liam both shared a nose-to-nose promo picture of themselves in what fans thought could be a fight poster.
Both posts quickly racked up thousands of comments as confused fans asked 'what is this?' and wondered if Liam was ditching music for a boxing career. While others feared they were about to make an 'absolute mockery of boxing'. But fans need not worry as the truth was finally revealed less than 24 hours later on Thursday .
Tommy, meanwhile, has signed up for the Soccer Aid World XI team which includes Olympic legend Usain Bolt as captain alongside Lee Mack, Steven Bartlett, Kem Cetinay, Mo Gilligan and Maisie Adam. Instagram Speaking to the PA news agency, Tommy said of being on the pitch with Usain: "I used to watch Usain in all the Olympics and to be playing alongside him on a football pitch will be absolutely incredible. I think for the first 10 or 15 seconds I’ll be a little bit starstruck until he tells me to get in position. But I’ll try and do him proud."
