    Some of those rounds were "won" with 2 punches landed. I see people are quick to rewrite history only hours old.

    Could've would've should've. Wlad couldn't.

    The rounds weren't close, Fury controlled the fight. Its not just about the number of punches landed.

    He made Vlad look like a confused, lost, terrified mess

    Wlad averaged 4.3 punches per round.
    Fury averaged 7.1 punches per round.

    I doubt Wlad will have that much difficulty upping his activity rate in the rematch.:lol:

    Wlad landed 2 a round, Fury 6. 200% more. So my thinking is if Wlad lands 15, Fury will still land more won't he?

    What's there to even chat about? Wlad didn't get old overnight. He did get embarrassed though.

    While I disagree that the rounds were close I'll say Fury didnt do much more than Wlad who did next to nothing. Any small adjustment would be huge in a fight that had so little

    A rematch could have so many possibilities if one guy is more aggressive or lands a solid punch

    They were reasonably close but fairly clear. Fury was landing little, Wlad even less. Very little action or clean shots from either side, but it wasn't where you wonder "who won the round?". It was pretty clear that Fury was doing more in the majority of the rounds than Wlad.

    Agree. It was deplorable to watch

    This had to be the most lackluster ever from a new HW champion

    And yet he did win fair and square.

    What a suprising lack of effectiveness/ effort from Wlad. I am still shocked he performed so poorly against such a "mediocre at best" opponent such as Fury. Wow

    I, never expect anything remotely exciting with Wlad anymore, he is what he is. But that performance was shockingly timid, and embarrassing. Fury's performance was slightly above 'sucks' which in this case, was good enough to bring him the title. The fight was god awful to watch, with Wlad showing nothing and Fury slightly above that.
