    This is my analysis, honest and true. I like both fighters very much and I was rooting for Tyson Fury


    Round 1. 10 9 Fury.

    Round 2. 10 9 Wilder

    Round 3. Too close couldn't score, Wilder missing but looks aggressive, Fury landing very light and tentative.

    Round 4. Too close to call, Wilder aggressive bloody's Fury's nose. Fury is dodging and countering but doesn't look dangerous.

    Round 5. This Too close to call, Wilder landing strong attack on the body and arms of Fury and missing a lot, good movement and defence from Fury but nothing very threatening

    Round 6. Too close to call Wilder attacking but for the 1st time Fury looks aggressive and menacing.

    Round 7. 10 9 Fury looks menacing and aggressive and is clearly landing.

    Round 8. 10 9 Fury less contact in action, Wilder rather aggressive with big swings landing occasionally but looks dangerous, close round To Fury.

    Round 9. 10 8 round to Wilder scored a good knockdown but Fury came back well.

    Round 10. 10 9 Fury, for the 1st time fury looks dangerous and aggressive, great combinations landing, wish he had been like this earlier, best round of the fight.

    Round 11. 10 9 Fury, Wilder very aggressive but missing, Fury's jab landing

    Round 12. 10 8 round Wilder, epic round, Fury connected with strong punches several times after he got up.

    Three rounds he couldn’t score
    That’s enough for wilder to earn the draw

    As a Tyson fan I was infuriated and gutted whe the scores came in but now the dust has settled it was closer than I thought. I still feel Tyson won without a doubt but being the foreign fighter against the champ, suffering two knockdowns you’re really up against the judges at that point. To win on points away form home against the champ it has to be a landslide but the knockdowns gave the judges reason to save Wilder

    All I read was "too close to call" multiple times on your scorecard.

    I think you should give up the judging mate :lol:

    Well the first 6 rounds reminded me of a fencing match, neither man did much of anything.

    Luckily, you arbitrarily finding rounds "too close to score" has absolutely no relevance or impact on everyone else's ability to utilize the scoring system the way it's intended :)

    You didn't score it, you scored parts of it.

    In my opinion deliberately, so you can give the impression Wilder didn't get gifted a draw if you went the other way with those rounds.

    I don't mean to put a downer on Tyson's achievement. From watching on the TV, it's just that I couldn't really tell what was hitting because Tyson's hand speed is too fast. The people at ringside and other pundit and the judges were seeing it clearer, I trust the majority of experts both both UK and American that said Tyson won those early rounds.

    Lol, Fury was robbed, plain and simple. You seem to be forgetting the WBC were trying to fix the Stevenson - Gvozdyk fight aswell, a 98-92 card for Stevenson, lol, thats criminal. Lucky Gvozdyk got the KO, or we would have seen 2 fixed WBC robberies on the weekend with their online trolls saying "oh, maybe it was a draw?".

    I mean, there are such things as 10-10 rounds. Just look at that one judge in the first Leornard/Duran fight that had like 10 rounds scored as a draw. lol

    Thought we were finally getting a scorecard with an elaborated draw. But no!!

    Too close to call my a.r.s.e. Fury clearly won those rounds.
