He would probably respond that that was a 4-punch combo, though in reality Chisora was gone straight away from the enormous left hook that started it
Plus that was the first time his chin had been been cracked. Softened up for everybody else.

Fury did a job on him and Haye finished him.

This wasn't a peak Haye either, was a great build up and good fight whilst it landed.

Tyson’s saying he’s having a media blackout until after the fight. Assume he’ll still do press conferences but no social/other interviews. Probably wise for him but wonder if he’s able to stick to it given Bob/Frank will want him pushing the fight.

Haye was a TKO with Chisora on his feet and the ref waving it off

Dillian slept him

He dropped him a few times didn't he?

Also Whyte Chisora 2 was like 6 years later..

I don't think Tyson runs his own social media in the run up to fights anyway.

Who knows but he’s been posting loads of short videos recently and has done several of the usual YouTube interviews in the lead up to his recent fights.

Either way it’s a good move for him I think.

:TU:
Might have someone running the socials.
Isn't the media "blackout" in response to Whyte wanting to be paid to turn up to a presser?
I know Tyson was really pissed off about it and this could be his way of tit for tat? :maybe:

It might be. However I’d be amazed if Fury is guaranteed the 80% of the purse in his deal. He’s probably on a deal where his pay off will be based on PPV sales etc so it’s in his/his teams interest for him to promote the fight.

Let’s see what happens. I listened to an interview with Eddie earlier and his intimated that Whyte will do the press conference but wants a private plane to pick him up from Portugal and take him back (Eddie said he’s not going to risk getting Covid from flying RyanAir).

I don't reckon you would get much change from 30K for a return flight and that would just be for Whyte travelling alone

The beef between them is so fake, they were always friends and have been photographed together loads of times and when Fury fought Wilder one channel had a camera on Whtye watching it live and he was cheering for Fury.

I think it’d be a little less than that but not sure. I get Whyte though not wanting to travel on a commercial plane at the moment so it’s up to Frank/Bob if they want to fly him in.

One article said they fell out because Whyte said Tyson changed his name from Luke to Tyson to sound hard, even if he did say is that really going to annoy Fury, this was in the press a few months ago, perfectly timed to start the beef off :roll:

I've no idea if Tyson was called Luke first. I do know a lot of people use their middle name. Or boxing guys just make them up. Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, bums like that.

Sugar wasn't his real proper name?

Fury is gonna do a Ali on Whyte.

Beat him around the ring showing ‘what’s my name?’

Imagine.

Luke had an issue with Whyte a long time ago, there was a time when Whyte was actively calling Luke out, and Luke wasn't having any of it.

I recall IFL bringing Whyte up in an interview at the time, and Luke refused to even have a conversation about it and said no questions about Whyte. I ain't going to talk about him. Kugan did as he was told, as he naturally does with Luke and that was that.

So can you confirm he's called Luke?
