Ahead of their heavyweight bout at the ExCel Arena in London on Saturday night, Dereck Chisora and Tyson Fury attended the final press conference on Thursday.
The pair have been involved in some heated exchanges in the past, but they remained calm and collected on Thursday and repeatedly shook hands as they were asked to face off.
Both fighters have insisted that all the talking has been done at this stage, particularly after they have already had two scheduled fights cancelled due to injuries and so all that is left to do is get in the ring and fight on Saturday.
However, both appear in top shape ahead their title eliminator, with the winner expected to go on and face Wladimir Klitschko, although Fury has publicly insisted that the Ukrainian is unlikely to face him.
Chisora insists that he was in a bad frame of mind the first time the two British stars met back in 2011, but after bringing in a strength and conditioning coach and taking his training seriously, he is ready to produce a knockout performance.
Meanwhile, Fury is equally confident and believes that Chisora is just a stepping stone to bigger and better fights as he edges closer to getting a title shot.
Nevertheless, the excitement is building for Saturday night as Fury and Chisora finally put their rivalry to bed, while Billy Joe Saunders and Chris Eubank Jr will also take to the ring to settle their feud on a packed undercard.
