    Having watched the fight 4 times now, I struggle to find the path to even Fury 114-113.

    I scored it 116-111 Usyk, and that was giving my 2 swing rounds 1 each. I'd have to give Fury 3, 11 AND 12 to give him a victory over and above the round 4,5,6 & 7 that I gave him. And that's just stretching things beyond the pale IMO.

    The vast majority of folks agreed that Usyk won with 7-5 or 8-4 being the most common - it stands to reason it's more delusional to talk about 9-3 Fury when most folks havd Usyk winning handily by 2-4 rounds, and struggle to even see a rout to a Fury victory.

    He got his ass whooped by a MW who was already past his their prime before phase one of the duck was even underway and that was over four years ago

    He said this over four freaking years ago. Let that basin into your abode

    “No. Usyk ain’t on the list, he’s a no-name, no-one’s interested and it doesn’t make any money.

    “So what would I wanna fight him for?

    "He’s a small cruiserweight, foreigner, don’t speak good English, and nobody’s really interested anyway, he’s not setting anything alight.

    “I want the big fights people are interested in and that ain’t one of them.”

    They could've had a Ted ''Kid'' Lewis vs Jack Britton series by now, let alone a trilogy, had Belly not been such a cluckin' duckin' female dog :facepalm:

    Even the Usyk of the first AJ fight whose legs were still great and was much more elusive would've toyed with this delusional shaved white flabby chimp in his sleep

    Fortune favours the brave and usyk won. Fury might have won 4 rounds

    So Luke has learned nothing from the fight & is still the delusional,gaslighting narcissist he's always been

    Still going with the narrative that he smashed Usyk up & says he's got a broken jaw & eye socket & he won the fight & Usyk only won 4 rounds is beyond laughable

    How anyone can still be a fan of his imbecile genuinely baffles me & I'm embarrassed for you & IF the rematch happens,he'll be absolutely destroyed as Usyk doesn't like being disrespected in this manner

    Fury won those middle rounds wide, and he was winning the story of the fight (I won't argue against that) by the half way. But Unfortunately, scoring round-on-round he wasn't actually the guy winning the fight. And we know what happened after that.

    Btw, as someone having lived a fair few years in Manchester, that "local amateur boxer" comment:lol:
    Low key disrespectful.
    Still, kind of funny, but more so because of how delusional Fury is. But I imagine his team, family, and media hangers on have been repeatedly telling him he won that fight. So it's in a way understandable, but don't see it being a helpful mindset to make corrections. Some self-awareness would help

    Exactly - and personally I think this should have been scored as another the same.

    Fury wasn't that far off being even on the metrics in several rounds, but he only really unambiguously won 2...
    It was competitive in the sense that there was only a few % between them - but there was consistently that few % between them in terms of stamina, adaptability and punch resistance...

    If Fury can improve more (or decline less) in all of these then he can win.

    My guess is that it'll be the opposite, and that Usyk is likely to have learned more and be able to start stronger...
    Which is why I can't see past Usyk winning again.

    We'll find out, it's still not a bad fight - but it was definitely a clear but competitive affair.

    You are most likely right, but hey, others believe in underdogs, so I will choose too also

    The bookies had England as joint favourites for the Euros and Stevie Wonder could see that is BS lol (I'm not hammering the English football team to get to you or Any others). They are just a prime example of a team with delusional fans

    It was a competitive fight but usyk clearly won more of the rounds. I know we disagree with that number, but we do agree about that

    Fury should have been stopped round 9, but many posters seem to forget the beating usyk took in those middle rounds and he was very clearly hurt on a couple of occasions

    Too many choose to forget about that and he was definitely shook up but credit where it's due. He adapted, dug deep and ultimately proved the better man in the end, no doubt

    Hahahaha. You Fury haters are so silly that you actually make me defend him. I like Uysk but the d-riding has got completely out of hand. A competitive fight is now being presented as if it was Calzaghe Lacy.

    He was in danger of getting knocked down and in all likelihood not out unless we got one of those 'British stoppages' that everyone hates so much unless it happens to a fighter they don't like.

    I think Fury struggled in the end as he got his weight and cardio all wrong. He looked weak and with the pace Uysk was setting in the championship rounds it was going to be difficult but to pretend this was some bell to bell shellacking is beyond dumb.

    Mate, it was you who questioned how come Fury was more hurt by Usyk than by anyone else. Since it was a running theme even in the pro-Fury British boxing media, you calling others silly is... silly.

    So now 99% of the forum is Fury haters ? As majority of the people here have it 8-4 + KD for Usyk, is that what you are telling me?

    Also we can use Competitive for a wide majority of fights. When you fight at the highest level, it's mostly likely going to be competitive, but that doesn't mean the fight was close in reality or you can change the winners.

    Looking at the data, Usyk - AJ was competitive as well. Both fights, but there was still one winner in it.

    Its almost if Usyk did to Fury what Fury did to Wilder which is turn him into a delusional idiot.

    Mark my words - Usyk is going to knockout Fury in the rematch. Wait and see.

    Oh, and lastly it's all fun and games, how Fury defenders claims this was a close fight, etc, etc, yet they somehow lost words explaining how exactly and on which exactly criteria you can make Fury wins this or that round.
    There is plenty of in-depth explanation on the fight Round by Round with what actually land and who did the better works, and every single out there have Usyk winning WIDELY.

    And yeah all of you just pretend the Numbers, which are FACTUAL somehow don't exist. So let ignore a 100% accurate system, just because it doesn't suit our agenda, even though it's shows exactly what we witnesses.

    Again there is no criteria where Fury wins more than 3-4 rounds(and this is generous), unless you are blind, biased or have no clue.

    Bad look for Fury being this delusional. He can either take the L as a learning experience and improve or convince himself that it was some fluke for Usyk.

    Wilder was punished for being delusional and I feel Fury will be as well.

    That's an excellent point, actually. Despite all his mental strength shown in the ring, I think he is very impressionable. With the number of yes-men around him, it's not surprising they feed him nonsense about having been robbed due to the war and how he won nine rounds. They still want their nice paydays, so I'm not even sure they are convinced of any of this. But Fury is their meal ticket, and apart from SugarHill and maybe Andy Lee, I can see them telling Fury whatever they feel will make him fight on confidently.
