Final Press Conference Quotes
“I’m really excited we’re almost here now, only a couple of days left and it’s my time to correct history and right the wrong,” Said Chisora.
“Me and the big man are ready to rock and roll on Saturday night. When the gloves go on it’s fight time and we are going to give the boxing fans something special to remember,”
“I don’t need to bad mouth the guy, he’s a warrior like me, we’re going into the ring and laying everything on the line, it’s going to be a war,
Undefeated Wilmslow talent Fury is desperate to defeat Chisora again and go on to finally face reigning WBO World Champion Wladimir Klitschko next year.
“We’ve seen each plenty of times at press conference and I’ve said all I’ve got to say, I’m done with talking, I’m here to fight now and Saturday night I’ll produce the goods,” Said Fury.
“I’ve worked my arse off for this fight, it’s the hardest I’ve ever trained, definitely. I know that I’ve done everything I can in training camp and now it’s down to Saturday night,”
“It’s no secret that I want Klitschko once he’s stops running from me. He knows that his reign is on borrowed time. Once Chisora is dealt with then I’ll do everything in my power to get Klitschko in ring,”
Promoter Frank Warren added, “That’s it, all tickets are now gone and the only place to see it if you haven’t got a ticket is live and exclusive on BoxNation,”
“It’s been a long time coming since the fight postponement in July, but I’m delighted to say we’re almost there and it’s going to be a big, big, night of boxing in the capital,”
“With Chisora looking to settle the score against Fury, and Billy Joe Saunders big grudge fight against Chris Eubank Jnr., plus the other big all-British title fights, it’s a terrific card from top to bottom.”
Chisora and Fury will face each other one more time at tomorrow’s weigh-in to be held at the Empire Cinema in Leicester Square.
