Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua adopted a surprisingly cordial approach at their first press conference for the highly anticipated 'Battle of Britain' fight. Fury, known for his psychological tactics, indicated a change in strategy, stating he would focus on a 'devastating right hook' rather than exploiting Joshua's 'mental fragility'.

Joshua, meanwhile, has made strategic team additions, bringing in Fury's former trainer Ben Davison and his estranged uncle, Peter Fury. Joshua stated that Peter Fury is 'willing to help me' and that they 'get along'.

Despite the generally friendly tone, some jabs were exchanged, including references to a 2010 sparring session and Joshua's past losses. Fury also questioned Joshua's patriotism, noting his residence in Dubai, which Fury described as part of Joshua's 'fake facade'.
