The final news conference for the much-awaited fight between Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury started on a fiery note as both fighters shoved each other prompting their teams to rush on to the stage.

Their verbal sparring was often circus-like and continued as US television networks paused for advertising breaks.

Wilder claimed that he is the reason that Fury is back in the sport of boxing and he is doing it for the second time this Sunday.

He says he is the reason that Fury is back in the big time.

Meanwhile, Fury says he is the reason Wilder has millions of dollars in his account.

Fury says he will put Wilder into permanent retirement.

The fight program is expected to start at 2pm this Sunday.
