    How did you score the 12th round in Fury Vs Usyk?

    Now that the dust has settled I wondered what the opinions of others were with the 12th round in the Fury/Usyk bout.

    I have seen a narrative where people have said Fury came back and won the 12th round, as if Fury finished the fight the stronger.

    I have watched the fight several times and just can't see any argument for Fury winning that particular round.
    Not saying it wasn't competitive but just felt it was an Usyk round.
    I can see arguments with say round 7 where someone could see either man winning, but the 12th round?

    I felt Usyk was the come forward aggressive fighter landing the more telling shots.

    I don't like punch stats as they don't give any indication of the punch in how well it connects or to what affect but did look at them to see what they saw.


    Round 12 punch stats that I found
    CompuBox Stats: Oleksandr Usyk-Tyson Fury

    Total punches landed/thrown
    Fury 10/41
    Usyk 18/47

    Jabs
    Fury 3/18
    Usyk 4/20

    Power punches
    Fury 7/23
    Usyk 14/27

    I would ask that watching round 12, how did you score that round?



    The other question I have is about how high Fury's protector and belt was but maybe that's a different thread

    I gave it to Fury but Usyk won on my card 115-112

    Usyk 1-3
    Fury 4-7
    Usyk 8-11 with a KD
    Fury 12

    Those punch stats surprise me for the 12th though

    The only possible way to score it..... in Usyk's favor.

    Usyk 1,2,3,8,9,10,11,12
    Fury 4,5,6,7

    Honestly, how can you score it any other way?

    Without sounding rude...
    Did you watch it again?
    I'm not dismissing your opinion by the way but I wonder if because Usyk had looked good in several of the previous rounds that they may have scored for Fury as he did better in the 12th than the previous few rounds?

    I assume you are talking about the 12th round here?

    I have seen a few people mention that Fury came back and won the 12th

    Your card is very similar to mine.
    Watching live I gave the 7th to Usyk but can see an argument for Fury and could make a good case.
    I think maybe the 7th could be an even round, but on the night thought Usyk
    Otherwise agree on all the other rounds

    As you can see already on this thread someone scored the 12th for Fury

    I’ve watched the fight 5 times and get the same card every time, Fury landed some good shots in the 12th I’m surprised with those punch stats though.

    I guess I am looking at something else
    I suppose this is why it is subjective
    I wonder if it was just an individual round scored and not looking at the whole fight if they would score the same?

    Looking at the stats I found Usyk landed double the amount of power punches

    I don't think Fury won a round after the 6th round I think the 7th round was a big moment in the fight, Usyk dug deep after having a tough spell between 4-6 and won a competitive 7th round after that I felt it was Usyk's fight all the way including the 12th round.

    I scored the 7th to Usyk but felt it was very close and wouldn't think it odd if someone scored it the other way
    I did feel that Fury still looked in control in the 7th round even though I scored it the other way.
    A bit like when Mayweather had a round off and lost a round but still looked in control. If you know what I mean?
