i remember kevin lear hopping through the ropes, walk over to michael gomez and giving the menacing manc a great big kiss.
kevins crowd including myself knew at that moment that it would be our night. and so it proved.

are there any more examples of pre fight chutzpa that worked a treat?
this was a classic

I enjoyed it when bully boy Tyson, his plane fuelled up and ready to go, walked to the centre of the ring early for his fight with Buster Douglas. In fact, Tyson was so keen to get on with it, he was closer to Buster's corner than the ring centre.
Douglas casually waited for all the announcements to finish, then marched into Tyson and forced him back to the proper point.

And Witter somersaulting and landing right in Zab's face, just as his name was introduced. Unfortunately, it was downhill from there...
