During the press conference, both men stood face to face smack talking before taking their seats and sharing with press what we can expect from the upcoming rematch.

Fury who took to the mic first declared that he was actually the winner of the match.

“What’s going to happen in this fight is that I’m going to get what I rightfully won last time. I’m going to get the green belt and keep my lineal title. And if he wants to rematch me after, I’ll beat him again. I’ve already beat him once, and I know I can beat him three times in a row.

However, Wilder says that was not the case.

“If he beat me, then why all the new trainers? Every day it changes. Firing and hiring. He wants to talk about being out of shape the first time, but he was in great shape. He spent 100,000 pounds on all those camps. I still to this day have the same people with me and I don’t need to change it.

During their times to speak, both men shared that they expect there to be a knockout with Fury calling it in the 2nd round.

“I’m looking for a knockout. That’s why I hired Sugarhill. He gets you to sit down on that big right hand. That’s what I’m looking for. There’s the game plan. If I wasn’t looking for a knockout, I would have sharpened up what I did in the last fight. I’m not coming for that. I’m looking for my 21st knockout

As for Wilder, he said;

“I knocked him out the first time we fought. I told him two years ago I was going to baptize him. Rising up is part of the baptism. But this a different story. This is unfinished business. Because he’s in WWE I’m going to make sure he gets knocked out of the ring, I might even come down with a flying elbow from the top rope.

This fight will be Wilders’s 4th time taking the ring in a rematch while Fury comes behind him with it being his 3rd time in a rematch.
