Fighter who talked the talk but did not want walk the walk

Bruno vs Tyson 2nd fight.
Bruno seemed really confident during the build-up, saying that Tyson is rusty etc but fell apart during the ring walk. He was easily beaten after that.

 

pretty sure that's broner's middle name.

 

Wlad Vs. Haye ?

 

Hi Guys.
Could be a tad nuanced, and a little obscure for the thread, but I remember Adolph Pruitt saying what he was going to do too Napoles when they met, accused Jose of avoiding him, and promised to relieve Napoles of his title inside 5 rounds, consequence being that Napoles normally a fairly slow starter, was all fired up, and gave Pruitt an unmerciful beating over two rounds, the caption in the Ring " looked like Pruitt had swallowed an hand grenade " same with Rondon and Foster, Vicente was giving it large, only to suffer the same fate.
stay safe guys, chat soon.
