    Fury did not win 5 of the first 8 rounds. Dream on. At best for Fury it was 4-4.

    Round 6, Uppercut is the most likely culprit.

    Krassyuk denied Usyk's jaw is broken. It was Fury who said so.

    The doctor recommended they get it checked out. He didn't say it is definitely broken.

    Usyk's jaw does not have abnormal swelling typically found after a fracture.

    I had it exactly 4-4 after 8 rounds i had Fury up 4-2 after 6 rounds but i thought Usyk won every round from 7-12.

    Props to fury he did give it his all. Knock down was the difference. Great fight great effort by both. Fury did great work in the middle rounds but Usyk showed why he is who he is and brought the pain late in the fight. Congratulations Usyk. Long live the king. Glad Fury is taking it like a man. Shows his class

    Fury has lost two in a row as far as I am concerned and not won a significant fight since Whyte two years ago,. He did a LOT better than I thought he would, but it is time for him to consider retirement.

    Y'know, the night rightly belongs to Usyk, but I just wanna give Briedis some props too. A majority of the fight it seemed to be a rerun of the Kovalev story on earlier in the card, but those last few rounds he showed that he still had a little bit left. Kinda makes you wonder if he had shaken off some rust before this fight if he could've made it another close one.

    Backed Opetaia all the way and glad he won, but I'm glad Briedis got to have his moment at the end too. If he retires now, the man can do it with dignity.

    Ya proper delusional. You've obviously never boxed yourself and can't score a fight impartial. No way did Fury only win 4 not a a chance. He had about 5 clear rounds 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 plus there were a couple of really tight ones like 1, 10, 12.

    I'm ok with the result but that was nip and tuck, either man could have their hand raised there.

    I'm not ignoring but it wasn't particularly significant either. I gave Usyk the first JUST, then Fury the second. I was literally giving Fury the first round til the last 20 seconds or so.

    You are off your rocker if you think 1 and 10 were close. And even crazier if you think 2 and 3 were clear for Fury.
