    And that would have been a farce.

    I know what you’re saying but it doesn’t work like that.

    Fury won at least 5 of the first 8 and definitely one 1 or 2 outside of that. People are going on like Usyk breezed it. Blokes a mess his team had to carry him away.

    Great performance and a true champion I'm happy for Usyk to cement his legacy as a boxing legend but I definitely think the rematch is Fury's to win. Usyk's never been teed off on like that and Fury had him hurt quite badly a few times to head and body but eased off I think there were still doubts in his head about his stamina.

    Fury down now 6 times in his last 7 fights and I have my doubts if his chins been the same since the Wilder fights. I definitely think he has more than enough tools in the box to win a rematch but wants to hang it up if he does, he still seems perfectly lucid and sharp when he talks but I doubt he can stand up to shots like that from AJ now if he's gassed.

    Fury himself showed amazing heart like Usyk did with his snapped jaw and if Fury got his hand raised you couldn't argue but fair play to Usyk tonight.

    He didn't win the second at all and the first was a pickem. Fury was getting off more but Usyk landed a few good lefts at the end.

    Fury won 4,5,6 & 7 that's it. Usyk won 8 rounds with a 10-8 round in there and apparently did it with a broken jaw according to you. How you get the rematch is Fury's fight to win is beyond me lol.

    I'm here I've always been respectful about Usyk but you kot are delusional. Proper trying to make out that it was a domination. The fight could have gone either way.

    Fury looked amazing for 4 rounds but the fight was 12.

    Ultimately Usyk wanted it more. He got the **** beat out of him first half of the fight and kept coming.

    In what round did it happen does anyone have an idea ? well this just makes Usyk's win look even better what a warrior.....backed up the much larger man with a broken jaw......that's next level

    Remind me, when was the last time a fighter winning 4 rounds counted as 'it could have gone his way'? Fury didn't even come close to winning a single round after round 6; it was all one-way traffic. Speaking of one-way traffic, remind me again, in which round was Usyk beaten so senseless that he staggered from rope to rope, unable to defend himself, until the referee blatantly cheated Fury out of finishing him?
