I like a mix between self praise and trash talk. Ali and Tyson both mastered that, and as such, raised a shit load of money for each of their fights ( though having amazing skills didn't hurt )

One of my favorites is the Tyson-Ruddock interview, featuring such classics as: " How dare you talk to me like that, you should kneel before me now and I'll spare you on the night of the 28th " and " I can't wait till the 28th, I'm gonna make you my girlfriend. " and my personal favorite: " You're sweet, you make sure you kiss me good with those big lips. "

Now, THAT is how you talk shit and raise money for a fight.
