    Oh here we go...

    Tyson Fury shoves Wilder half way across the stage.

    "I have never been so sure of something in my life, you big dosser."

    "Look how small you are you midget," Fury tells Wilder...

  4. Another kick off?published at 21:42 Greenwich Mean Time 19 February 2020

    Just a reminder that before the first bout between these two, things kicked off a bit at the news conference.

    Plenty of people said it was staged but those lucky enough to be there largely agreed it was genuine. The mood in the room got progressively more hostile that day, I can remember feeling it.

    I have a feeling Fury will look for some kind of edge today as he always has some sort of agenda at these kind of things.

    Let’s see. Duck for cover.

    Both fighters look like they're about to pop down the shops, hoodies on... Fury has his shades on too, must be bright in that arena. They're having a little square off, almost breaking into a dance with each other on stage.

    "And now ladies and gentlemen..."

    You guessed it, "from Manchester, England..." Tyson Fury!

    And here we go, out first comes Deontay Wilder....

  8. Wilder v Fury II - who wins?published at 21:39 Greenwich Mean Time 19 February 2020

    This week's Fight Talk has all the predictions that matter, but none come bigger than boxing legend Mike Tyson, who is supporting his namesake over his fellow American.

    "I always root for him [Fury] because he was named after me," he said.

    Deontay Wilder talked of surpassing Muhammad Ali yesterday and this week we were treated to image after image of the great man as we walked around the office of promoter Bob Arum.

    Arum promoted close to 30 Ali fights and was a close friend with the legendary heavyweight.

    Images like this one jumped off the wall. There’s just something about Ali that draws you in.

    A rare, rare breed.

    So this week we’ve already sat down with both fighters. Fury arrived in shorts, a hoodie, socks and flip flops.

    Wilder turned out in leather, fur, gold and diamonds.

    Both were in good form but there’s a real appetite around Wilder to minimise his media commitments.

    I wish I could explain just how much media these men do but I couldn’t do it justice. Imagine how many interviews you likely think they do and then multiply it by 500!

    Wilder says he’s going to defend his title for an 11th time - surpassing Muhammad Ali’s total of consecutive defences.

    Fury told us he has three fights left and that in this one he will stand up to Wilder and hunt a stoppage. He called the American a “playground bully.”

    Hundreds of media packed in, cameras everywhere and Deontay Wilder’s trainer Jay Deas walking around with his hold-all like he’s just come from the gym.
