I rewatched it and felt the same way both times. If you score it minute for minute it get's very hard to have it other than for Usyk. Same with the third. Usyk wins the first two minutes in both. Fury would in other words need to be really dominant in the last minute to win the round, but he isn't. He might have won the last minute of the 12th, but not by such margin that it off sets Usyk being the better for the first two. Those that had this fight close must have been fooled by Fury stepping on the gas for the last minute of the round. And that isn't unusual, I think it was Leonard who had his corner shout when it was 30 seconds left so he could try and steal the round, but it isn't correct.
I gave it to Usyk. It was one of the more competitive later rounds but Usyk was simply busier and forcing the pace, landed more shots overall and more power shots to the head. Fury simply didn't do enough in the last round despite the bravado in the closing seconds with his hands tied behind his back.
Yes, and the commentary didn't help. Punches that were clearly blocked by Usyk was talked about as landed punches.
Fury. My scorecard was very very very similar to the official scorecard scoring a draw+kd (114-113). This content is protected
Thank you for the vid. After watching the twelfth again if was a clear Usyk round. Fury did well but Usyk threw and landed more combinations as opposed to single shots. Furys punches were flashier, not better.
I am not knocking it btw, just interested as to why you scored the last round that way when Usyk was pushing forward and landing more I know fights are subjective and a big scoring shot can be more effective than a few cuffing blows
