    Pretty impressive post fight press conference for a guy with a broken jaw.

    Fury won round 2, 4, 5, 6 and that's it. If you push it, maybe, MAYBE you can give him 7 if you are VERY generous. Giving him potentially 8 rounds with what you think were tight ones - lol. You don't know how scoring boxing matches work. Not surprising, Fury fanboys are not very knowledgeable.

    Anybody who thinks this was a draw needs mental help. Usyk won this 8-4, 7-5 Usyk best for Fury. Fury lost, get over it.

    Usyk was fine at the post fight conference it seemed. He took some heavy shots but kept coming, like a true champion.

    I think we can dismiss the broken jaw reports outright. Probably a rumor started by Miniq, John Fury, and a few drunken travelers.

    You could get to 6-6 if you were giving Fury the benefit of the doubt in every single close round. But, even then, the KD in the ninth seals it for Usyk.

    Crazy to think that Fury had almost 30 pound weight advantage over Usyk and yet Usyk not only beat him but almost KO’d him as well.

    Really shows Usyk’s greatness.

    Exactly how the fight went. With only 1 correction, the fight ended in 8th. round, but the paid off referee saved Fury once again.

    Fury won 4,5,6 and that's it. Usyk won every single round after that and he won them clear. He was clearly the one in charge of the fight, so you also had to reward that. Ring generalship, pressure, offense, more active fighter, fresher one, the one landed the hardest shot, literally every check you can put, and it's Usyk.

    I was able to watch this very enjoyable fight with my son as it happened. What an interesting bout with a variety of ebbs and flows, a few big moments and a lot of good ones. Now it's off to read the always interesting, sometimes brilliant and sometimes mindboggling comments in this RBR.

    I hope you all enjoyed the fight.

    Good foreshadowing of the punch that really hurt Fury in round 9.

    Well, if that so it should be stopped.
