    he didn't school Wilder. he made him miss a lot with Wilder's only arsenal the right hand bomb, which most boxer's should avoid .. Wilder had his gloves up and Fury was missing a lot of his shots too being blocked and what not .. No fighter really established much or landed much in this .. To say the fighter who was on the canvas twice got robbed is going too far IMO

    I don’t I thought Fury won at least 9 rounds. It was robbery to me but I will say schooled might be strong word cause he was dropped twice that is true.

    The worst part of it is, I wasn't even particularly surprised when the decision was announced!

    After Kovalev Ward and Triple G Canelo nothing surprises me anymore. Still it ducks when it happens. Fury outboxed Wilder plain and simple and by enough of a margin that he still won despite the knockdowns. Everyone knows it. Shameful how espn is promoting it. Check out their link to fight on fb. Totally misleading the fans

    Tyson Fury is the f*cking boss.

    Epic.

    Fury looked quite content afterwards. I wonder if he has the discipline and desire to scale those heights again.
    He should set himself for the rematch then Joshua and that's it.
    I doubt it will be so straightforward.
    He says so many different things , you never know when he's serious or not.

    True-with a draw the bigger money Joshua fight is salvaged for both fighters not just the winner

    Did you actually score the fight round by round or are you going by your gut impression?

    I did not and stated that in another post ,, that if I scored it, it could have been different

    Nice card Philly … I think the robbery comments and schooling comments are too much .. It was a close fight imo, which I stated

    It might not be so bad if the snowflakes didn’t use this term after EVERY SINGLE close fight!

    I have the same card as you except I switched 5 (which I misssed most of) and 6.

    I keep getting cards where my score is in line with the judges during supposed robberies.

    The funny thing is after the first knockdown I told my brother to cash out his bet. He had a Joyce, Ortiz and Fury treble with Fury on points. I was telling him it was going to be a draw after the 9th round.

    My card was relatively similar to yours except that I thought Round 4 was a clear Fury round, and I didn't see all of Round 5. Wilder loses on my card even if he wins round 5 though. Definitely a bad decision imo, and the judge who gave Wilder the first four should probably be banned.
