Anyone Think Fury - Wilder was Boring?

lmao you should watch darts instead or something buddy.

 

It was a truly great heavyweight fight

 

My Dad was watching the start with me and walked off after a few rounds.

The older heavyweights just threw so many more punches.

The only one who does that these days is Joyce.

 

It was absolutely brilliant ya mad man.

 

Go & watch Whyte against Browne or Martin v Joshua & decide...I thought it was very entertaining.

 

Just like the Klitchko fight it was incredible. Wouldnt want to watch either too many times though.

 

Well it certainly was not a slugfest, and I generally find the HW division a bit of a bore...but I think it was entertaining and a competitive scrap between 2 guys that respect each other more than thier fans do

 

I guess it is a case of managing expectations..

If you didn't like this fight, then you wouldn't like watching Ali vs Foreman either. Don't know what else to tell you, personally I was gripped from the opening bell, and the feeling that Wilder could end it at any time out of the blue made it exciting to watch. Fury's movement is first class.. the sight of him evading Wilders offense by 1/10th of an inch was crazy. Look also how he controlled the distance.

And the twelfth.. well that was just incredible. That sudden explosion from Wilder was frightening, and then the comeback by Fury. It's the stuff of the rocky movies, not real life.

Personally, this fight far exceeded my expectations. I was expecting a relatively early KO by Wilder, instead Fury proved me wrong entirely in everything I said or thought prior about this fight, and I am pleased that he did!

 

You said you read about the fight before you watched it so it's understandable you didn't get the same excitement as watching without knowing what was going to happen. I was in total suspense and it grew and grew the longer the fight went. And that 12th round, well what can you say? It was epic. You couldn't ask for much more if you want excitement and drama.
