The whole thing is right up Fury's alley, as he was born to yell and clown. Wilder looks a bit uncomfortable doing it, and probably realizes Fury owns him in the trash-talking department.
Still.... it's a must in order to drum up interest in the fight, since unfortunately many casual fans would be unable pick either of them out of a lineup. We can only hope neither has hurt themselves in the process.
Master you get too affected by people's behaviors, Tyson Fury like Donald Trump is just a big mouth we can all agree on that but so was Muhammad Ali and so we have to just take it as marketing and promotion stuff and not so affected by it on a personal level.Quote:

I am glad he has got back into condition but this fight is too soon to take on someone as seasoned as Wilder.
Fury has been caught taking drugs, stopped boxing for nearly 3 years and cancelled fights. That behaviour is piss poor.Quote:

Oh yes I agree with you on that! Drugs and talking about "she slaps up good" misogynistic crap at public events, that is piss poor. I'm just referring to his promo trash talking though.
I do not mind his banter at these press events, singing after the fights and wearing costumes. Fury has to put on a show because his punch power and boxing skill is limited. Fury has size but very little else to offer which is why has to entertain people to keep them interested.Quote:

He can also switch hit.
Who else in the division can do this?
Limited boxing skill?
Tyson Fury is God
Fury has fast hands but he is more awkward and unconventional than a skilled technical boxer.Quote:

Anyone that punches themself in the face from one of their own uppercut illustrates that.
Fury's biggest threat is his sheer size.
WILDERS demeanor/expression is pure cringe, he's psyched out, Fury has already won.
