The comments came as part of the raunchy villa challenge, Wary Tales.
Fellow Islander Catherine Agbaje, 23, branded Tyrique "disgusting" - yet when it was revealed she kissed five men in one night after a separate confession, he was quick to hit back.
Chatting with the other boys after the challenge, the semi-pro footballer said "Kinda surprised at Catherine, she kissed five guys in one night, fair enough.
"No one said nothing bout that, no, but when my body count's 100 it's a problem."

As the boys awkwardly laughed and pulled faces following Tyrique's comparison, he went on:
"Kissing five boys in one night and over 100 in my lifetime, bearing in mind I've been single..."
Fans called out the sports star's hypocrisy, with one writing on Twitter: "Tyrique having all this mouth for Catherine kissing five boys in one night is insane because a body count OVER 100???
"I don’t even think I’ve met or interacted with up to 50 people I’ve found attractive in my lifetime."

A third then put: "He vibed so well with Catherine but i’ll be happy if he stays away lmao she doesn’t need his f***boy energy."
A fourth put: "Body count over 100 is crazy for anybody, thats horrid and you’re tryna compare it to 5 kisses pftttt bffr."
One candidly added: "Wait but both Catherine and Tyrique openly shared a personal info so we shouldn't be slut shaming any of them let’s stop this plz!!"
Earlier in the episode, the Islanders were forced to guess who a certain statement was about before planting a kiss on them to confirm their choice.
One of the statements read aloud by Molly Marsh asked: "Which boy stopped keeping count of his body count when it hit 100."
Instantly the girls were left gasping but it was what hunky semi-pro footballer Tyrique had to say next that left them with a sour taste in their mouth.
As the girls asked him to explain the story, he said: "Yeah, obviously, it's not a flex.
