SOT, Tyson Fury, boxer: "If you want to admit it or not, it's really important to me because your belt is going to be on the line so that's up for grabs. If you don't want to win mine then I'll just win yours." *MULTIPLE SHOTS AT SOURCE*
SOT, Tyson Fury, boxer: "This is why it's an eagerly anticipated fight. People want to see who's the best and I do as a boxing fan and so does Deontay, I know he does. This is why we are throwing down, this is why I respect this man because a lot of other weight divisions, especially in our era, we're the only two undefeated warriors. We turned pro at the same time, we're still undefeated at the same time. And we're going to put it all on the line yet again for the fans. The fans are the only real winners here."
M/S Wilder on banner; Host [UPSOUND]: "Does he have the power to knock you out?"
SOT, Deontay Wilder, boxer: "I don't think so. We've seen a couple of knock out but we haven't see it as a continuous of occurrence like mine..."
Host: "Did you feel it, in the last fight?"
Wilder: "I did. I mean I still think Tyson has a pillow as a fist, but he's a skilful fighter."
SOT, Deontay Wilder, boxer: "It's gonna be a bit more special for me [host: "why?"] because of the history that we have, the controversial draw. And you know for me I consider Tyson as a breath of fresh air, for me especially in the heavyweight division, because a lot of other guys they don't want to open their mout, they don't want to let themselves loose and have fun. With a fighter like him and what he brings to the table, you have to have a kind of awareness. But still on the other hand with me, just being blessed with power, for me it will be his job to stay away from it." *MULTIPLE SHOTS AT SOURCE*

SOT, Deontay Wilder, boxer: "When you're coming forward you're giving me all of the momentum that I need coming forward to land a shot."
SOT, Tyson Fury, boxer: "I'm the gypsy king, you know, there's only been one gypsy king, and there's only likely to be one gypsy king going forward, and that's one belt Deontay can't win because for one he's not a gypsy and he definitely can't take that title. So yeh, that's what makes me unique."

SOT, Shawn Porter, boxing analyst: "When you get touched more than you used to getting touched, that does something to you up here. If Tyson Fury is able to get on the inside of Deontay Wilder, which is something he didn't do in the very first fight, and be effective, that's going to do something to Deontay's mentality and set something up along the lines, going on with the fight."
Mark Kriegel, boxing analyst: "You know what I don't think happens? Fury can't get knocked out if he's holding him on the inside, playing him on the inside, so that's a safer place for him to be and he doesn't have to win by knock out. The other guy, Wilder, might have to win by knock out"
Kriegel: "I agree with that."

SCRIPT
Heavyweight boxers Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder faced off at a press conference in Los Angeles on Saturday less than a month out from their keenly anticipated re-match.
While the two boxers were generally respectful of one another Fury talked up his chances, saying "I still think Tyson has a pillow as a fist."
"When you're coming forward you're giving me all of the momentum that I need coming forward to land a shot," he added.
Fury for his part said "if you want to admit it or not, it's really important to me because your belt is going to be on the line so that's up for grabs."
During their fight back in December 2018, the 'Gypsy King' won most of the rounds, but the 'Bronze Bomber' knocked Fury down twice.
Fury claimed that he should have been declared the winner on points while Wilder complained that the referee started the count late when the Mancunian was on the floor in the 12th.
Both fighters left undefeated while Wilder retained the WBC heavyweight title.
The pair will meet again on Saturday, February 22 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
