Showtime PPV: Deontay Leshun Wilder vs. Tyson Luke Fury & Luis Ortiz vs. Travis Kauffman RBR.

Wait...do you a) believe that one has only to go back 30 years to reach a time when pro wrestling actually was "real" (or that Mania I-IV at least were)? ...and b) not realize the WBF actually is a minor sanctioning org in boxing, whose name literally stands for "World Boxing Federation" (which I think was you attempting to riff on the former name of WWE)?

 

How come when someone hits to many home runs...or a team wins to many football games...or a college basketball team goes to the final 4 to many times...the feds come from every possible angle to find a fix....yet boxing just moves along willy nilly..no investigations nothing ...seems funny almost like it was set up to be this way from jump.street

 

I don't know why there is such a drama about the scorecard. It was in the US and actually 6:6 rounds with clearly the 2nd round being to Wilder plus the two knockdown rounds is pretty much fine. There were some close rounds.

 

was an arbitrary number ..settle down i know.its still real to you damn it

 

I scored every round to Fury except the two 10-8 rounds and I stand by that scorecards. Wilder did not have a clear round without a knockdown. I have no issue with Wilder being given a few rounds as some where close, but I still think Fury did enough to win them. Hell, I think the draw scorecard is bad, but can see how at a real stretch it's not completely outside the realms of what someone could score the fight. But the 115-111 scorecard is just unbelievable, something is seriously wrong there.

You're entitled to your opinion, but I don't think many people will consider that a close fight. Wilder got outclassaed, Fury just got jobbed and that ridiculous scorecard couldn't make it clearer.

 

Yup, Fury's defense was mostly on point, he slipped and blocked well, but was shorting his shots quite a bit early on. While both guys left a lot to be desired in the work rate department. The knockdowns saved Wilder from taking an L. I like Fury's chances in the rematch. I was surprised by how good he looked. He'll only be sharper in the next fight.

Wilder's lack of ring IQ, and boxing ability is fairly disappointing.

You realise that the 115 111 scorecard is 6 to 6 rounds? And you just said that he won 3 for sure and maybe he couldve been gifted some more rounds, what's so shocking about it?

Sometimes the sun shines just for me. I hate both men and their fans. This was the only result were everyone is unhappy except for me.

 

Wilder didn’t win more than 3 rounds.

 

Your scoring gets worse every outing, young fella !

 

To be honest I’m thrown by this reasonable response because I’m a marginal, occasional poster and I’m used to seeing you ruthlessly go in on people, lol.

Ultimately I thought 114-112 was favourable to Wilder, I couldn’t get 113-113 but I guess that’s not the end of the world...I’ll still tell anyone who listens that Fury won though

 

Overally: Good fight compared to the horrible snoozefest that Klitschko and Fury did. There wasn't a lot of hugging. There were knockdowns and drama. I am pretty fine with the draw, although I had Fury a little ahead in the end. I was very impressed with the will of Fury to get up in the 12th round. The only annoying thing was the end of the fight, all those kisses and shits. They acted like best friends.

 

Stupid phone. That is not the clip I meant.
