    Because trash talk is fake and just for hyping up the event. Fury is actually not a disrespectful person.

    It's all fun and games, to separate the poor man from his gains.

    Pity, he saw that cat had Usyk's tongue and felt bad for him. Usyk has to up his verbal skills.

    Because Fury knows Usyk isn’t scared of him or intimidated in the slightest. Fury has shown every sign of a man that is weary of Usyk.

    Next up, his own post-fight Joshua 2.0 melt down. I can’t wait.

    Because Fury isn't some sort of evil lunatic like some of you on here believe. He's playing up and hyping up the fight. He probably also felt a little sorry for Usyk who was being booed by the crowd all night.

    I also think Usyk looked a little bit like a deer in headlights, he won't know how to handle Furys antics and it will get to him.

    Every fury thread ol boy is in here trying his best to change the narrative.

    It’s cute to see a middleweight shake up Fury’s meat fondlers this much.

    Because it's all part of the show, to build up the hype for the fight. It's not that deep.

    He did look a bit deer in the headlights, but I suspect it was mostly his lack of English that caused that.

    But if you think Fury's antics will get to him in any way you're going to be disappointed. He's as unflappable as a concrete flag.
