"The marketing for this fight is next galaxy."
"The best fighting promo I have witnessed..."
"This will go down in history as one of the best promo in sport."
"What a commercial!"
"One of the best promos I've seen so far."
Fury's comment section was more of the same:
"This is the type of promotion we should have for a big boxing fight, nobody does it nowadays."
