Prediction - Wilder vs Fury

To me it is just as justifiable as the Fury card.

 

How so? The Fury card looks pretty sensible to me, though I don't know how you give Round 1 to Wilder. That judge gave Wilder 4 rounds including 2 10-8 rounds though, which is in line with how most people saw the fight. Giving Wilder the first four rounds is flat-out indefensible and seems either crooked or incompetent.

 

Hey Rummy any way I can see your YouTube video that was removed. I enjoy your vids and find myself agreeing with you a lot of the time.

 

Again I disagree! I am not a fan of either guy and while I enjoyed the fight could frankly care less who won (although fury fans are more annoying than Wilder ones).
The first 5 to me are close enough that I wouldn’t get upset going one way or the other. It’s only fury fans quoting Mayweather and commentators that say it is crazy.

I hate punch stats. But the report is 155 total punches. That is 12.9 a round. Fury outlanded wilder by 13 total or = 7 fury 6 Wilder per round. This is hardly the stuff of a dominating performance or clear win one way or the other.

Personally don’t care if you think I am crooked or incompetent....

Edit: I wonder if you picked or cheered for Fury??? I bet it looks more sensible the harder you cheered

 

The KDs help to provide some claw-back for Wilder but, in the main, the two KDs and ensuing counts are the only time he looked like he stood a chance of winning.

Whilst Fury was not being the aggressor, what he did throw tended to either land or be more effective in disrupting/resetting his opponent. Combined with his movement, Fury rendered most of Wilder's aggression ineffective/ So, to my mind, the fight can only be perceived as having been close if you value ineffective aggression over defense.

I'd suggest that it's rare to see the fighter, who appeared to have little to no strategy, other than to land big, do well on the cards, when they've failed to put their opponent away.

 

Is it just me or were there a ridiculously low number of punches landed for a 12 round HW title fight.

I think I'll go watch Ike/Tua or Holmes/Norton.

 

Yeah by punchstats 154 total or 12.9 a round with fury landing 13 more or 1 more a round. For people who rely on them as fight evidence of who won, might need to come up with another reason it was a robbery. Perhaps they can be influenced by the mastermind of boxing that is Paulie

 

Ya I don't why this is so hard for people to get.. I didn't look at or need to look at punch stats to see what was going on right in front of my face, lol. Neither guy landed much in this one or established any sort of dominating performance here … It was a close fight and there were close rounds and that all there is to it
