‘TNT’, in his exclusive interaction with Behind The Gloves, opened up on the same and gave an honest take. He said, ”Thank you very much, Mr. Paul. Appreciate it. And I’ve got to say I don’t really feel the same towards you mate. I mean listen, if it comes down to nearly really, you know, he is what he is. He’s a blogger, he’s a YouTuber he’s done very well for himself and there’s no bad blood or hatred towards the man.”

In the pre-fight press conference of the Paul vs Woodley event, every pugilist fighting on the undercard took an active part. In this press event, Paul and Fury made the most out of their opportunity and went all guns blazing against each other.

Fans expected a brawl between the two, but both pugilists knew that this was not the time or place to fight. However, verbal punches were not off-limits, and these may set up a sanctioned brawl very soon.
