    Yeah that's how I kinda see calls like that.

    I think he should have been stopped, but as you say the ref left him to it, and he finished the fight on his feet.

    Feelin good. Being telling everyone on the forum this since 2015. I like both Usyk and Fury and respect them and I think there is no one else currently beating them at HW.

    Clown E-Hearn struggled to give Usyk more than one of the first six rounds

    Thanks David Haye for telling the truth on air. Ropes kept Fury up 7 times. Should have been stopped.

    Yup. And with a little better fortune, Usyk might have gotten Fury out of there in the 9th.

    I thought for sure they were going to rob Usyk. I had it 8-4 Usyk winning comfortably. Great win for boxing. Usyk deserved it.

    Yes. Laughable that some actually have said that Fury is as skilled as Fury.

    Usyk simultaneously the most disrespected world champion of his generation and the greatest world champion of his generation

    What a great fight, the right man won. So happy for Usyk

    I am pretty sure there will be a rematch knowing Usyk

    I want to see the official cards because Furys corner told him job was done before the 12th, be funny if that 114-113 Usyk card gave Usyk the 12th.

    Makes the debate that modern bigger fighters would beat past greats, Ali was the same dimensions as Usyk but had faster hands and feet with just as good ring IQ I would place Ali favourite over Fury after this fight

    You can damn well bet your life if Usyk was hurt like that they would have stopped the fight. British refs suck.
