    I wouldn’t want to shake hands with Warren a day after he said he had the flu.

    I don't mind John Fury, but he should not have been up there trying to take centre of attention, nor should Dillian's fake brother. Think Big Shane does a much better job when in US of being Tyson's right hand man. Never tries to to take limelight, but always making sure things are ok for Tyson.

    Would not mind him acting the hard man but he shat himself when Micky Theo offered him a fight in the ring.

    A real fighting man would never lose face like he did.

    He can be funny and knowledgeable at times but he really is a nobber at times

    I can see why people wouldn't like him but he doesn't bother me. People like "Dean Whyte" are much more irritating. He is a true hanger-on if I've ever seen one. Ludicrous that he is getting a cut of Whyte's fees for doing nothing. Whyte is an absolute pleb.

    See John Fury came out and said it was his fault and apologised for his behaviour. Said he is had to be edge over the years and thought they were going to on offensive, so done what he did. Said Dillian and Tyson are both gentlemen and he is a nobody. Said Tyson told him off.

    Fury and Whyte face off- both each others entourages being mouthy in particular John Fury and Dillians brother acting like ****s. Dillian and Fury both came across well and told their own entourage to shut up and back off, plus shook hands. Both Whyte and Fury very respectful, which I like to see instead fake "beef" to sell the fight.

    Agreed. People get far too caught up in the pantomime - most fighters respect eachother really. It’s a pretty small circuit at the top level.

    Don't get me wrong it's entertaing when two fighters have genuine dislike for eachother e.g Marshall vs Shields for instance. However fake beef for example Fury vs Wilder 1 and 2 was clearly fake and staged to sell tickets is full cringe. As supposed to their 3rd fight were the was genuine Ammonite due to Wilders pathetic different excuses over the loss in the second (where Wilder gave the silent treatment with headphone and Fury was in full wind up mode and rightly so after Wilders accusations.

    I do also like it when a fight is so good between two top fighters that display mutual respect for each e.g. Wlad and Usyk vs AJ.

    Not as cringeworthy as using "cringe" as an adjective, or "full cringe". You're not a 14 year old girl, Mitch.
