With respect your opinion is of similar standing to anybody else and I am sure that more than me around the world thought Wilder won narrowly. I don't listen to the sheep or follow them either. There was a full 20 seconds between Fury going down and the ref allowing Wilder to box again - that was the biggest robbery element of the whole fight. Fury v McDonut 1 was the biggest robbery in the history of boxing and this was certainly not anywhere near that scale of robbery. Maybe over one's career poor decisions, luck and good breaks even out?
Seems like you have some sort of personal vendetta against Fury just like @Sephiroth Rising 7 on the 'world' forum.
I have stated clearly in the past that I find his style boring but effective - the only thing I dislike about the guy is the bull about knocking people out then not trying to knock anyone out. Was one of the first to post that I thought Fury had narrowly lost the fight but gave credit for a very good performance.
if you apply the scoring system effectively .... well the judges did that and gave it a draw, to many conspiracy theorists on this forum and only their opinion is right and if its there opinion is not right then everyone else HAS to be wrong, its embarrassing a draw is a fair result i had a draw with fury two rounds up going into the last round which of course is subjective because everyone has a different experience of the fight because we all think differently which is why they have 3 judges instead of one, i always called for 5 judges for world title fights so you can get a better average score like the amateurs but that still has it problems itself
The fight was a draw mate and the decision will never be anywhere close to the top 30 robberies of all time. On to the next fight.
Considering this was a very high profile fight in the most important division, and the fight was so easy to score, this probably was a top 30 robbery of all time. Perhaps not so blatant technically as others but it will certainly be remembered more and be talked about more than 29 other fixed fights you could mention. Talk any bs you like but it comes down to this: Either you believe Wilder was the beneficiary of WBC protection or YDKSAB.
Was not in the same league as Holyfield v Lewis, Fury v McDermott or Burns v Beltran - these three were beyond any doubt. Fury may land 3 feather fisted taps barely touching facial skin but Wilder lands 2 better shots while on the front foot all round - who wins the round?
I would of been happy wit splits points win for Fury , an same , splits points win for Wilder . I didn't like the splits points Draw .. has all da marking''s for a rematch .
Watched the fight again and I score the fight as follows: Round 1 10-9 Wilder Round 2 10-10 Round 3 10-10 Round 4 10-9 Fury Round 5 10-9 Fury Round 6 10-10 Round 7 10-9 Wilder Round 8 10-9 Fury Round 9 10-8 Wilder Round 10 10-9 Fury Round 11 10-9 Fury Round 12 10-8 Wilder That is my opinion based on what I viewed recognising every round was close except 9 and 12. Cannot see why this fight would be in the top 30 robberies.
Wilder 115 - 112 Fury Wow... Ps. Liked your post for going back and watching it but Stevie Wonder would have scored it more accurately than that
