You guys do realize that the whole point of these press conferences is to say outrageous things that will get the fans talking, right?
Might get people talking but I can't see it winning him many fans. I dread to think what sort of stuff he will be coming out with nearer the fight because he is making a right nugget of himself already :P
Press conferences are about making money, it has nothing to do with winning fans.
If both guys got up there and kissed each other's a**, maybe they'd win some fans because people would say, "Wow they seem like such nice guys.."
But no one would be talking about it and they wouldn't be hyping the fight at all.

I'm not directing this to you personally, but it surprises me how many fans don't understand at all what the purposes of a press tour are.
