The fighters were led on to the stage by the Brooklyn Nets Beats Drumline and immediately met face to face. Just like a day before in London, the 6-foot-7 Wilder and the 6-foot-9 Fury had to be separated midway through the press conference when Fury ordered Wilder to take his sunglasses off so he could see his eyes.

Below are flash quotes from today\u2019s event at Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York:<\/p>\n
DEONTAY WILDER<\/p>\n
\u201cThis fight means everything to the heavyweight division. This division was once in a dark place. A lot of people considered the division boring and not entertaining and not enough great fighters. You know, people always look back at the past and say, \u2018Where are the golden days? Where has it gone?\u2019 And now today\u2019s era is different\u2026 We\u2019ve brought the sport back to life in the heavyweight division.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe all know with me it comes with power and with knockouts. And that\u2019s what I do. I get you guys motivated and I get you guys inspired to come and see a heavyweight fight. Because what you guys come to see in a heavyweight fight is a knockout. And I deliver that each and every time. Like I\u2019ve said before, when I say I promise you, I promise you I\u2019m going to knock out the Gypsy King, as well. TIMBERRRRRR!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m the one who brought him back. I\u2019m the one who encouraged him when he was in that dark place. I told him, \u2018You can do it.\u2019 I dared him to come back. I dared him for this very moment. I want him to have confidence. I want him to have energy. As you can see, that\u2019s nerves. That\u2019s all nerves. Because he knows what\u2019s going to happen. He knows his face is going to get smashed in. And he knows his body will be on the pavement. Let him burn out this energy. It\u2019s entertaining. Because when we get in the ring he\u2019s gonna be all by himself and his demeanor will change. His mannerisms are going to change. He\u2019s so nervous right now. He don\u2019t know what do to with himself.<\/p>\n
\u201cDon\u2019t give people false promises. I was born off of false promises and got nothing for free. I promise I\u2019m going to knock you out. I speak it, believe and receive it and it\u2019s mine. I don\u2019t have to show so much energy, baby.\u201d<\/p>\n
TYSON FURY<\/p>\n
\u201cEven Deontay Wilder knows to sit in the presence of greatness. Why I am going to beat this bum is because he can\u2019t box. He\u2019s a big swinger and he\u2019s knocked a few bums out. He\u2019s been in 40 fights and 35 of them have been against total tomato cans who can\u2019t fight back. So really he\u2019s only had five fights. If he thinks a five-fight novice is going to land one of those big swinging windmills onto my chin, then he can think again. After he feels a bit of power and a few stiff jabs in the face his ass is going to fall out. This is what\u2019s going to happen: At about round five or six I\u2019m going to start landing the overhand right and going downstairs to the body. And then around eight, nine 10, the championship rounds then it\u2019s welcome to my world. He\u2019s only been 12 rounds once in his career, and I\u2019ve been 12 rounds championship distance many, many times.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m very experienced and I\u2019ve come back against all odds. I\u2019m here today having beaten so many, many problems. How am I going to let this little spaghetti noodle beat me? How am I going to do that? They don\u2019t call me the Gypsy King for nothing. I didn\u2019t come to New York and Los Angeles and all these press conferences to be embarrassed by this little skinny runt. I\u2019m going to knock him spark out.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m a big, fat, bearded man who can fight like hell. You don\u2019t need to see this fat. We all know I\u2019m the master of disaster. We all know I have a fat stomach. But it\u2019s going to look even worse for you when you get beaten by a fat man.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want the Deontay Wilder belt. I want the Tyson Fury belt. I want the limited edition WBC belt. There\u2019s only one Tyson Fury!<\/p>\n
\u201cYou are on a suicide mission. You know I\u2019m a CRAZY man. I\u2019m gonna make this bum quit. I\u2019m going to make him quit. I\u2019m going to show him what\u2019s it\u2019s like to fight a real man. A real world champion. Does he even know they don\u2019t just give lineal champion belts away? This man has never beaten a world champion. He fought some bum [Bermane] Stiverne that no one\u2019s ever heard of.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou already know you\u2019ve lost the fight. You\u2019re very nervous right now because all the pressure is on you.\u201d<\/p>\n
LOU DIBELLA<\/p>\n
\u201cOn Dec. 1 on the floor of the Staples Center it\u2019s going to be bombs away. You\u2019re going to get to see the Power, and the Fury when the undefeated, hardest punching and most feared heavyweight of the world, the WBC champion, the Bronze Bomber Deontay Wilder faces the fearless Gypsy King, the undefeated linear heavyweight champion of the world.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s no magic to making a fight of this magnitude. All it takes is for each champion to want to fight. On December 1 two of the three best heavyweights in the world are fighting each other, and the winner can walk away saying, \u2018I AM the man!\u2019 Until proven otherwise. That\u2019s what this is all about. As the heavyweights go, so goes boxing. And the heavyweight division is heading for big things. On December 1 you are going to see a heavyweight fight for the generations.\u201d<\/p>\n
STEPHEN ESPINOZA<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is something undeniably unique about a heavyweight title fight. Not just unique in boxing, but unique across sports. There\u2019s a mystique, a mythical quality. Boxing\u2019s heavyweight champions have always been heroic figures; almost super heroes. There\u2019s a feel, a buzz in a heavyweight championship fight that is unique across all sports. And there\u2019s certainly a unique feel to this fight, as well. We have the two tallest men, the biggest men in the heavyweight division \u2013 6-foot-9 and 6-foot-7; two huge figures both literally and figuratively.<\/p>\n
\u201cDeontay Wilder: 40 fights, 39 KOs, most in devastating fashion. He\u2019s one of the hardest punchers not just in boxing today, but modern boxing history. In Tyson Fury we certainly have a unique skill set. You do not see athletes who are 6-foot-9 who move the way Tyson Fury moves. He has a unique set of skills with athleticism. Outside of the NBA there\u2019s not another more athletic 6-foot-9 athlete on the planet. It\u2019s a fascinating clash of personalities and it\u2019s a fascinating clash of styles and we are happy to bring it to you on SHOWTIME Pay-Per-View.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
