For boxing specifically, it is absolutely part of the fighters' marketing strategies.

For sports in general, trash talking during a game is "real." Extended beefs that get major media coverage might be intentionally played up for publicity.

Yeah I guess it just depends overall on the players mental stability, some players can be calm throughout and some can easily be triggered. So yeah you're right.
