Brutus appeals to reason, Antony to emotion.
Brutus and Antony.
Brutus does.
Although both Brutus and Antony offered eulogies, Antony offered one tempered with sarcasm and disrepute, while Brutus's was sincere with praise and good will.
Antony would have his way with or without his approval because he is the head of the army.
Antony, in his funeral oration for Caesar, repeated the phrase, "Brutus said he (meaning Caesar) was ambitious and Brutus is an honorable man," in Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.
The crowd did react to Brutus and Anthony funeral speeches because they had much intellectual appeal.
During Caesar's funeral, Antony refers to Brutus as an honorable man. This is said sarcastically as Brutus was a traitor to Caesar.

Fickle.
The two things that Antony requests of Brutus is for Ceasar to receive a proper burial and for him to have the opportunity to speak at his funeral.
Brutus believes that Antony is the same kind of person he is; a man who can be trusted to keep his word and act honourably. While Antony is suggesting that Brutus is dishonourable by calling him honourable, he himself is acting dishonourably by breaking the spirit of his promise to Brutus. Irony upon irony!
Because Antony promised he would not do the very thing he ended up doing, and Brutus trusted him. Unfortunately for Brutus he really was an "honourable man".
brutus spoke first and then they let Antony speak under certain conditions
Brutus sets these rules for Antony to abide by; 1. that Antony will not blame Brutus and the conspirators " You shall not in your funeral speech blame us" 2. to speak only of the good things Antony can think of about Caesar "speak all good you can devise of Caesar" 3. ensure that he [Antony] informs the plebeians/people that he is only speaking at Caesar's funeral because he was given permission to, by Brutus and co. "And say you do it by our permission" 4. that Antony will speak in the same pulpit where Brutus is going to speak "and you shall speak in the same pulpit whereto I am going" If Antony does not agree, then he "shall not have any hand at all about his [Caesar's] funeral" Hope that helps
Brutus allows Antony to speak at Caesar's funeral to show that they have nothing to hide and to demonstrate their commitment to fairness and democracy. It was also part of their strategy to win the public's support by giving Antony a chance to address the crowd.
