Just finished watching the fight - was much better then I expected. Fury was twitching around and making faces like the ex-junkie he is which caused Wilder to miss pretty much everything - was an excellent tactic as the couple of times Wilder was able to get him, he knocked him down. I thought that the last knockdown was it and the ref actually reached 9 before Fury got back up. Scoring wise I gave Fury 8 rounds and Wilder 4 but since 2 of those were 10-8, that is 114-112 to Fury.
No surprise in an American in America getting a dodgy decision. A draw works out best for everyone all in all - Wilder can actually prove he is a draw and Fury prove he isn't a prick before they face Joshua. Assuming that Joshua still has the belts - would be hilarious if after all this he loses to one of the mandatory defences.
Fury can be a prick, but some of the very best sportsmen wind up their opponents to gain a competitive advantage. I think he’s technically the best boxer in his division. All the casual boxing fans want to see is big KO’s so they hype the **** out of folk like Joshua and that lad’s getting it, sooner or later. Fury will be even fitter and more focused in the rematch. Hopefully in Manchester.
I’ll fix your quote for you since you’re a huge mong. Which part do you think is funny out of interest?
I don't mean a prick inside the ring - all that showboating and the rest was good tactics to throw Wilder off his game plan and worked well the majority of the time. I mean all the rest out of the ring - let's see if he carries out his promise of helping the homeless and becomes a role model for people affected by mental health issues. No one doubted his boxing ability but his tactics - his last two fights were boring as **** but thankfully he didn't use those tactics today and today's performance combined with keeping his promises above will raise his stock considerably. Can see any rematch still in America - Wilder is the champion so will be up to him where it will be. Fury could tempt him with Old Trafford or another stadium like that though. Hopefully Wilder will bulk up as well - was the lightest he had ever been for a fight and he looked tiny next to Fury.
Fair play to Fury, takes some doing to come back from **** street to fight at the top level. AJ will smash him though.
What makes you think he won't do the things he says he will? You've called him a junkie, you've doubted his claims...did Fury beat you up onetime?
On what grounds have you come up with that assertion? AJ couldn’t finish a guy half Fury’s size earlier this year.
His last two fights were against nobodies and purely to get minutes. That was a scandalous decision. The Mexican judged it five rounds each excluding the two knockdowns. That can’t be explained.
