Tyson Fury And Deontay Wilder Engage In The Most Bizarre Face-Off That Lasted 5 Minutes And 33 Seconds

It's fair to say the press conference in Los Angeles on Tuesday afternoon was a strange one.

To kick things off, a bare-chested Fury strolled into the press conference without a care in the world, while a subdued Wilder just sat there, wearing headphones throughout the 40-minute event.

For the most part, Deontay Wilder's new trainer Malik Scott spoke for his fighter, but The Bronze Bomber did make a short 25-second statement, where he thanked his lord and saviour Jesus Christ, as well as his legal team.

He also said it was "time to cut off his [Fury's] head" as he promised bloodshed in the trilogy fight

Fury, meanwhile, opened up about his game plan for the Las Vegas bout and taunted Malik Scott about bursting his eardrum.

After the fight was 'promoted' between all parties at the event, a bizarre staredown between Fury and Wilder followed as both fighters stared at each other for five minutes and 33 seconds. No, your stream isn't frozen. This actually happened.

Fury vs. Wilder 3 was supposed to take place in July 2020 before the pandemic scrapped the contest.

A trilogy is all set to take place next month but Tuesday's press conference was met with mixed reviews from social media.
