"I know they're terrified of the Spartans... But listen, we'll sell this show, it's a Tyson Fury show, forget them. I'm not even gonna mention his name, he's not worth mentioning. His team ain't worth mentioning. He's a mandatory, this is what mandatory's do and this is how mandatory's behave. But I've been in boxing a long time, never seen anything like this, mind games? The only thing I'm disappointed, [smashes hands together] I'm not going to be able to do that."
