Just woke up in my hotel room with a massive smile. Can't believe what I witnessed last night. Fury is an ATG.
Delighted for Fury. When he fights Joshua he’ll have more fans than him. Who would have thought that a year ago. Made up Wilder’s been shown for what he is. Absolute lucky multi millionaire. He’d lose to most novice amateurs if he didn’t have that one shot. Where was the great jab and underrated boxing iq his fans say he has. Hahahaha.
Fantastic night, amazing experience. Just a few negative points, as a travelling fan paying so much money, we needed and deserved a better undercard. One of the worst I’ve seen. The other is the amount ****s there with their slick back gelled hair, **** suits and all round ****ish behaviour! There was some chaos in places before, during and after the fight.
David Price thinks there's more to come from Fury and I agree. 7 weeks with Sugar Hill was all he had. He knows his best weight now 100% and will continue to improve in future camps.
The ring walk was epic. Only Fury would come out to a 1960's anthem! Anyone else play 'crazy' several times today and laugh out loud? Just me? Fair enough This content is protected
I didn't buy the fight, but knew the result by my phone nagging me in the early hours. I watched it, plus various bits since then and final thoughts are that it was ugly, brutal and brilliantly executed. He has taken the only belt he didn't already, after he forfeited the rest. Jury must be out whether the belts are loaned, or still his. It was shockingly great and am pleased for those lads who were there.
I don’t know whether it got mentioned last night / today on here or the tv but that first shot that put Wilder down looked to be an illegal shot to me? Behind the back of the head? not trying to discredit him at all. I’ve praised the performance but just wondered others opinions on it?
Brilliant from Fury. I watched the fight after reading the reports and Wilder was in it for the first 2 rounds but even when the right hand landed Fury took it. The extra weight suited him. The 3 round knockdown effectively ended the fight. Apparently Wilder's ear drum wasn't busted but his balance was all over the show for much of the fight and Fury was able to unload all his weapons. An effective and a times heavy jab, a straight right that had Wilder down or holding on several times, some surprisingly effective body punches and late in the fight some punishing uppercuts. Wilder was well beaten by a skilled bulldozer. I'm not sure how much more we will see of Wilder. 40+ fights on the clock, he's been in some bruising fights as well Ortiz 1, Molina and Dauphaus gave him tough nights a career heavyest ,weight a punishing defeat and few positives to take from it. He's going to be the president of the who needs him club and at 34 and probably needing a break to recover - time may not be on Wilders side. For Fury AJ then Usyk-- I think he probably wins both
wow. Congratulations for the most delusional post of the year. Fury absolutely annihilates AJ. AJ will get humiliated absolutely no question whatsoever.
