    I scored it 95-94 for Ngannou. I can also see 96-93 for Ngannou or 95-94 for Fury. But I cannot see 96-93 for Fury.

    Who do you think deserved to win?

    Fury probably won more rounds. The scoring in the rbr thread was embarrassing. Screams of robbery from immature mongs.

    Obviously still damages boxing's credibility. ooph.

    I think Ngannou or Draw was fair.

    If Fury won 6 rounds... well 5 of them were just barely.

    Not sure. I didn't really score it. Ngannou did well but he didn't land a whole lot of punches either. But neither did Fury.

    I think Fury won the boxing match but Ngannou won the fight.

    If Ngannou had been boxing for his whole career, he might just have been the best boxer of this generation. Mad credit to Ngannou.

    Haven't seen it yet. Surprised so many who said they wouldn't watch it did. Will have to take your word for it for now.

    Fury won the fight. It was an interesting fight. Someone has been giving Ngannou some serious tuition.

    Had it 96-93 for Ngannou myself but gonna need to review it before I swear to that. That said, I voted draw because I believe 95-94 either way is perfectly acceptable too. I feel about this about how I felt about Zhang-Hrgovic: I was disappointed with who got the nod, but it isn't a robbery by any means.

    That said, we're talking about the Heavyweight champion of the world and a guy making his boxing debut. The fight being a toss up should not be part of the script. This should've been a shutout for Fury or a stoppage, and it ended up being his closest fight in years, possibly ever. I don't even know what to say about this :lol:

    Fury did enough in my opinion but it was scraping by for both of them except like 2 rounds.

    I had it 95-94 for Ngannou. It wasnt a robbery (apart from the one crazy judges score) but Ngannou deserved the nod in my book

    Ngannou or draw.

    I'd have to actively be looking for excuses to score it for Fury... It's not impossible to do, but I do think it needs bias to achieve.
