Even the press event only added to the cloud that continued to envelope the upcoming fight. The two combatants, Talimbe and Prodoskevy, had harassed each other’s families, issued fake press releases under assumed names, and vandalized each other’s vehicles. To keep the peace, there were more security personnel than reporters. Every question caused both men to erupt into fake coughing fits in which they hurled insults at each other. Their card garnered more interest than the title match that capped the evening.
Before the fight, the two boxers met in private and congratulated each other for generating a big audience.
