    115-112 to Fury who fought well, but it is plain as day Wlad cannot pull the trigger on his right anymore, same against Jennings.

    Get the rematch and win or lose retire, no shame in losing to Fury especially when you're 39, at least he's not getting stopped by the likes of Williams and McBride I suppose.

    Difference is Tyson was shot and had already been beaten 4 times and hadn't been champion for nearly a decade.

    Whereas Klitscko WAS the champion and the favourite and was coming off one of his career best performances.

    Klitscko got his ass whooped, deal with it.

    Doesn't matter when they fought, Fury would always have beaten him.

    Klitscko was always one dimensional.

    Lol deal with what?

    Fury won a clear win I have nothing to deal with.

    Wlad has been slipping for the last few years and whilst he can still compete at this level he was awful in the Jennings fight and whilst his defeat of Pulev was a great performance it was a year ago which is a long time for a 39yo in boxing.

    Harold Lederman had it 9-3 Fury and 11-1 quite frankly is a reasonable score. He could do just about nothing to Fury for the entire fight. Even his underhanded tactics backfired on him as he cut his own face trying to butt Fury, and he got rocked after turning his back to try and have him DQ'd on rabbit punches.

    You and I have been backing Tyson Fury since very early in his career.

    Let's be happy it was him to who got the torch passed to him and not some idiot like Chisora.

    Fury was the #4 HW in the world yesterday by MOST ppls accounts.

    Today, he should be a clear #1. :thumbsup

    Wlad landed flush on Fury 3 or 4 times, It had zero effect, and if anything, encouraged Fury further.

    Fury landed a couple of decent shots on Wlad, and shook him to his boots both times.

    Clear cut victory for Tyson. It really wasn't that close and a Wladimir win or draw on the scorecards would've been a blatant robbery IMO.

    Tyson just outworked him, plain and simple.

    Yup. Right man won on the night.

    But there was NO dominance.

    If 10 solid, damaging blows were landed in the entire fight, Wlad landed 8 of em.

    Sadly, we witnessed the changing of the guard in the most horrific HW Championship fight ever.

    Both were afraid of one another. And Fury won because Wlad had no plan B for Fury's movement.

    Banks.....trying to get Wlad to catch and shoot.....well, you gotta be shot at before you can employ that tactic. :-:)-:)-(

    Wlad lost fair and square. I had it 8-4. It happens tip your cap to the man. Nine and half years as champion only Joe Louis can claim a longer reign. Dominant champion.

    When exactly did he neutralize the "grabs"??? The whole fkkn fight was jab and grab!! That's all eithe of them did.. They both should have been awarded a loss imo... This is a sad example of the state of HW boxing these days.. I guess I ruined it for myself even further since I've been watching a lot of old fights from the glory days of the HW..
