Funniest Pre-Fight Build Up?

[EXIGE]

What, in your opinion, was the funniest pre fight build up that you ever saw. I can think of 2 examples that i have seen but i forgot the opponent for one:

- Tyson VS Somebody?? (i forgot) - Tyson was saying that he is gonna kiss the other dude on the lips, because he had big lips. He was also saying "im gonna make you my girlfriend", and i remember watching it and just ****ing creasing up. It was so funny, because the other man was trying hardly to appear as witty and Tyson was just messing around makingthese dumb comments but they were funny. (forgive my memory, i know the fight was one of his "more documented"/"higher profile" ones).

- Naz VS Kelley: Naz was saying that he was gonna set up a job with HBO for Kelley to be putting posters up, amongst other dumb ****. Kelley was all like "im gonna smoke your boots". In fact for the fight previous to the Kelley one in the post fight interview Naz's trainer was abusing Kelley over the mic and stuff which was funny to hear, especially with his Irish accent.

I understand Toney has a bit of a rep for trash talking, and of course we have Zab calling PBF: Pretty Girl now. But im talking in the past. What were your favourites?

tyson's rant aimed at that reporter climaxed by his famous quote: "i'll **** you 'til you love me, ******!"

another one was ali's just before his 3rd fight with frazier.

he pulled out of his pocket a toy rubber gorilla and he was saying "i got his conscience (Frazier's) right here, to keep me on guard. this is what he looks like when you hit him. (he punches the gorilla a few times and it keeps bouncing around). c'mon gorilla! we in manila! (he hits it a few more times) c'mon gorilla! this is the thrilla! (he keeps hitting it)"

classic ali.

Lol. I remember seeing another interview of his after the Lou Savaresse fight, where he got in so much of a stress because the interviewer kept asking him what he was going to do about Lennox Lewis. That was the same one that he made that famous line "my defence is impregnable ...." blah blah.

I havent seen that one, but i saw some footage of Ali doing a public training session and he had a stuffed gorilla in one of the corners and he was punching it and shouting out a whole load of ****** ****, similar to what he was saying in the one you posted. That was funny too.

What was up with Ali randomly opening his mouth really wide though haha. I remember he was being interviewed after a fight once and the dude finishes talking and the camera moves away from Ali a bit, and all of a sudden he just opens his mouth really wide and just stares at the camera. I was like "WDF!" lol.

just recently when jermaine taylor pulled out that crying doll wearing a pink shirt that said "executioner"on it was kinda funny, but the funniest part was when nobody laughed.......i thought i heard a damn cricket

What about the Julian Francis v Tyson press conference build up. Standing toe to toe for the press shoot, Francis came wearing shades coz he was scared to stare Mike in the eye.
