    Fear is not supposed enter your thinking. I'm not scared, is far from saying, Fury should be scared. It's admitting there is something to fear.

      Not sure how it is in the UK, but I feel like there's no buzz for this fight in the US. As cliche as it is, I think some good presser soundbytes or even a face off skirmish would have generated some buzz for the ESPN audience.

      On a personal note, I have to say that the undercard is probably one of the weakest I've seen for a PPV fight. Looking for a reason to get this PPV but not really finding anything that moves the needle.

        Yeah, same here. I'm not one for manufactured hype and silly press conference brawls, but there is something to be said for just seeing pictures of them together and hearing a few sound bites on the regular in the lead up. Keeps the fight fresh in your mind as something to look forward to.

        I'll be watching the fight of course, that's not in question, but you're right, it seems there is something to this promotion malarkey after all.

          Yeah it will be. Warren himself said it wouldn’t be up to much due to their having spunked the cash on the purse bid

            I don’t think you or anyone else has given enough respect to Whyte for turning up, with the temperature at 20 degrees Celsius, in all out road-man gear.

            I mean, ****, look at him.

              Very disrespectful of the promoter who is putting the money up, lots of work goes into an event, its poor form from Whyte.

                This is ridiculous. I think whyte knows the outcome of this fight and he is planning his retirement.

                  Fury should automatically have to pay 10% percent of his purse to Anthony Joshua for the fact that he constantly uses Joshua’s name to promote his fights.
