Intro:

British heavyweight champion Tyson Fury tapes up his mouth and refuses to speak to the media as details of his upcoming heavyweight bout with Dereck Chisora are announced in London. Fury was fined £15,000 by the British Boxing Board of Control after using explicit language during a rant at his previous conference. Warning: contains rude hand gestures throughout.

Script:

Tyson Fury put tape over his mouth to ensure that he gave the first silent press conference in the history of boxing.

So determined was the giant 26-year-old not to cause further offence in the build-up to his heavyweight battle of Britain with Dereck Chisora that he uttered not one word as the two came face to face in London.

Fury has been fined £15,000 by the British Boxing Board of Control for the four-letter outburst at their previous head-to-head confrontation.

Chisora replied simply that he'll 'knock Fury out':

SOUNDBITE: (English) Dereck Chisora, defending European Heavyweight champion (on why he's confident ahead of the Fury bout):

"Because I'm going to be fit and I'm going to be ready for it and it's going to be exciting. I won't let it go 12 rounds."

The pair meet in November at the ExCeL arena in London's Docklands for the rescheduled world title eliminator which was postponed when Chisora cracked his hand in sparring.
