    The gypsy king fighting man was being backed up by the middle weight most of the fight and had to have the ref save him from being ktfo. But ya robbery you idiot

    I suppose the next question is, can Fury do anything different and win the rematch?

    Because, I'm not sure he could face losing to the same guy twice, so he might just make some excuses and back out.

    Yea I couldn't believe Usyk was dictating the pace and had a much bigger man on the back foot all night, remarkable.

    Clear Usyk imo plus a knock down to erase all doubt. Fury seemed to be given excessive time to recover from the knock down too. Belly had success in the middle rounds and maybe won 2 clearly. Usyk seemed to win about 5 or 6 very clearly and at the best it felt like 9-3, at the very, very, very worst 6 - 6 imo which means 114 113 Usyk. 114 113 Fury is a very, very small possibility imo. I think it's Usyk all day and on my cards quite handily. 8-4 region.

    Bro take your pills and go to sleep.
    The only robbery is that one judge that decide to score the fight for Fury.

    Now, why would they rob Fury, when a big fight with AJ is on the horizon?

    If it is so easy to fix fights, why fix it with the winner being the less lucrative in their next fight?

    Who can they put in with Usyk that makes more money than a Fury/AJ fight?

    Now, hush up, caress your Fury blow up doll and go night night.

    Usyk won by SD

    It was prob correct; a real knifeedge of a fight though & Fury again desperately lucky to not be stopped by the ref whilst out on his feet

    Class act Usyk & I really, really, really hope we see the rematch later this year

    Right man won, I had it 116-111 Usyk. Usyk swept the first 3 rounds for me, though a couple of them were close and he then took the last 5 rounds, so 8 rounds to 4 to Usyk on my card, plus the deduction for the knockdown.

    At worst I had it 114-113 for Usyk if I give Fury those 2 early rounds that were close.

    If Fury had not been K.D. then he would have been the Undisputed World H.W. Champion. It was a close fight.
