    Lol mate Fury's chins not what it was. He had 40lbs on Usyk though, he should have won based on that, its his fault he didn't. Idgaf that he lost, fair play to Usyk.

    I've never said it was a robbery either or anything like that but it was a very close fight that was hard to score.

    I watched it back I had it

    1 Usyk close 10-9
    2 Fury 10-9
    3 Usyk 10-9 close
    4 Fury 10-9
    5 Fury 10-9
    6 Fury 10-9
    7 Fury 10-9
    8 Usyk 10-9
    9 Usyk 10-8
    10 Fury 10-9 close
    11 Usyk 10-9
    12- Fury very close

    That was how I scored it on the night. Was a good fight not a lot in it. The stamina of Usyk was brilliant, and he deserved the win off finding a way. I have no argument with the decision but due and I can see any of those close rounds swing either way.

    Great fight and if Fury changes a few things up keeps his hands a bit tighter when exiting and is a bit fitter he can breeze a rematch coz Usyk couldn't touch him when he went up the gears until he gassed out. Having said that on the flip side I'd of had no issue with Fury being stopped in round 9, none at all, I saw some people saying let them fight on its for undisputed so fair enough. That wasn't a clear or easy win either way mind.

    Funny thing is you know you're talking absolute **** but you're hating that much you can't stop. No way Fury only won 4 there.

    Fury also couldve won Rd 3 and 12. The KD would've been the difference.

    Heavens, let it go already. No matter how you want to twist it, even giving the close rounds to Fury, he was absolutely beaten to a bloody pulp.

    You all laughed and mocked with @miniq, @Thunderstorm, and @Redbeard7 at the thought that Usyk could win. For the better part of two years, you kept repeating the 'too big, too strong' mantra, saying he would ragdoll Usyk, that there are weight classes for a reason, and that he is this Gypsy warrior whom Usyk could never hurt since even Wilder couldn't knock him out.

    And this little middleweight beat the living daylights out of the guy you claim is 6 inches taller (he's not, but anyway), 40 lbs heavier, and has a 7-inch reach advantage. It didn't matter. Usyk hurt him more than Fury was ever hurt in the ring before. The fat blob was bouncing from rope to rope and needed the corrupt referee to step in when Usyk was about to finish him. Instead of waving it off as he should have per the rules, he gave a long count so the round would be over. When even Delboy, Fury's mate, says it was a long count and even British boxers say it was against the rules how the referee intervened, just give it a rest with this "who won what round" thing.

    Usyk won a bare minimum of 7 rounds, including the KD, which was actually a KO. It was a 115-112 UD fight, and that's very generous, giving Fury 5 rounds. Stop it and give Usyk credit, finally. It's long overdue after you and your pals have always talked down on him for years when it was about his fighting Fury. Don't give me this "oh, but I always respected Usyk" nonsense. I remember the names perfectly well. I know who those 12-14 members here were who were unbearable and posted vile crap whenever somebody said, "You know what, I think Usyk not only can beat Fury but hurt him too." Look at your actions now, you post about Usyk's allegedly broken jaw and how he 'cheated' when he kissed a cross in the corner. You have absolutely zero shame, and you and your Furyette pals I mentioned above are embodying everything that is wrong, vile and toxic in the boxing following communities online.

    Usyk went to the hospital with a broken jaw whilst Fury went to the post fight conference.

    First of all, the fight was fantastic and Usyk won without a doubt, the knockdown decided...

    I'm telling you mate I'm looking forward to this rematch. Usyk was like a fish out of water there when Fury turned it on and Fury through that away. Few minor adjustments, keeping his hands up when coming out of exchanges and Fury destroys Usyk in a rematch.

    I'm actually glad Usyk did it as I'm a big fan of his and he deserves to be undisputed but that wasn't an SD like the AJ rematch where Usyk won easily, that went down to the wire and could have gone either way.

    I agree with Dave Allen, some of the worst corner work I've seen in years. John shouldn't come to the rematch.
