It all began amicably, with Fury and Ngannou even thanking each other for the opportunity, but then John was invited on stage and all hell broke loose.

John started off his speech with a few niceties, praising everyone on stage for their accomplishments in boxing, before he added: “But, you know what, give me a special mention.

“The man who bred him, John Fury, fears no man on Earth. No matter what they’ve done, no matter what the accolades.”

“Here I am!” John shouted. “Any man alive want to fight John Fury I’m here and ready to go, Mike Tyson what have you got to say to that my brother?”

Tyson initially swerved the question, focusing on the fight at hand, before John jumped in once again and said: “Let me tell you my brother, the world is going to see what happens to your man.

“Your man will get his head boxed off and stopped at will my pal, don’t you worry about that. And if I’m wrong you and me will fight right after.”

“Yeah,” replied Tyson enthusiastically, as John continued: “Me and you will fight no matter the result.”

After Fury and Ngannou had said their piece, John couldn’t resist chiming in once again, standing up and screaming: “My son cannot be beat.”

Ngannou’s team with Tyson then began chanting ‘Francis’ over and over again to drown out John.

But, John did not take kindly to this as he went around the front of the stage to confront Ngannou and Tyson, while being held back by security.

“All day every day I’m with you let’s do it,” Tyson said in response to John.

This high energy then seemed to transfer over to Fury and Ngannou as to end the press conference both men were on their feet trading insults.

“I’m knocking you spark out, game over, out cold, no problem, without a doubt, that right hand is going to detonate right in your face you big ugly dosser,” Fury said.

Ngannou then promised to knock Fury out in under six rounds, before ‘The Gypsy King’ continued: “I know you can’t punch, no power… look at him he’s a big fat sausage.”

“Yes I’m fat but you used to knock people out when you were fat,” Ngannou replied as Fury burst out laughing and admitted: “That’s true, I’ll give him that.”
