I never understand logic of all that. We have two professional fighters who knows how to protect themselves. But they always walk and are crowded by team and bodyguards on press conference and weigh-ins. Lets suppose drawl starts. What next? Professional fighter gets injured. The fight goes canceled. Everyone looses money, everyone fails to earn, opponent misses chance to get one more victory in record or belt. What is the idea to start such a fight, if because of you, your team suffers?
That should not happen, especially in an epic fight like this. The promoters have spent a lot of money on preparation and promotion, and they might file a suit or case against the parties that started the brawl. Fighters should be protected at all costs. They know their obligation. They have bodyguards, and their bodyguards know what to do because they have instructions to protect their boxer at all costs.
I wasnt talking about protecting, I was talking why would such brawl even be started. What is the point of that? You are about to have a fight, with rules and etc. And you start pushing and throwing punches in press conference. Why not just wait day or two and do it officially.
I dont understand the "team" part in all that. Event and promotion hire bodyguards. That is for protection. A fighter comes with his coaches, sparing partners and friends. Fighters goal is to win during professional fight and earn money or belt. But, if someone of your team starts a brawl before the fight, and theoretically injures your opponent, then the fight is cancelled. Then due to your team you do not earn. <--- That logic I dont understand.
In the situation with John Fury. Look what could have happened. John headbutts Usyk team guy. That guy throws a counter punk. Some of Fury team members throws his punch and in all that mess accidentally punches Usyk. Usyk gets a cut, fight is postponed.
