Derek Chisora was at it again on Friday, threatening to walk out on his fight with Joseph Parker in Manchester.
And that was after losing a coin toss which meant he had to walk out first against the former WBO champion.
It was easy to write-off as an empty bit of publicity.
But if some people were desperate for an update of whether the fight was on or off, updates were thin on the ground.
Compared to previous Chisora controversies, this was small beer.
It was also in Manchester that he once threw a table at Dillian Whyte.
Early in his career, he bit an opponent in the ring.
But no one will readily forget the events in Munich around his WBC heavyweight title challenge.
And that was when he slapped Vitali Klitschko at the weigh-in and spat at Wladimir Klitschko in the ring.
He thereafter had a wild brawl with Haye at the post fight press conference.
Haye who that night tried to smash a camera tripod over Chisora’s head is now, of course, his manager.
“You should enjoy us while we’re here,” Chisora said. “Write good stuff now before we all go.
“I don’t see too many big characters coming after me apart from maybe Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte.
“And those are the people who can give you the headlines you like.
“This is the problem with you guys, I think you should change the way you write.
“That is because you want to write about somebody but at the same time, you want to write us off.”
There is no sense of menace around Chisora these days, although, he still has a bit of an edge about him.
But while Parker hopes a win will put him back in line foe a world title shot, Chisora feels otherwise.
“Let’s all be honest, you should ask Dillian if he wants a world title shot. And that is because he’s been waiting five years,” Chisora said.
“I don’t want a world title shot to be honest, I just want to fight.
“To put myself in those positions, it means I have to be begging, saying ‘please let me have this’. And no, I don’t want to beg.
“If you have a mandatory, you have to fight another mandatory to prove yourself as a top mandatory.
“Then, if you beat that guy, you fight another mandatory. So it’s round and round and round we go.
“Instead, I am making boxing work for me. I won’t say ‘oh please, give me a shot at the world title’… no, I’ll do it my way.”
