    I re-watched it in Russian, same score. Just because people disagree with you, doesn't mean they were swayed by commentary.

    Hilarious. Gilfoid may be the worst boxing "journalist" I've ever seen in my life. He's the Hannity/Fox News of Boxingforum24.

    Wilder was made to look horrendous by Fury, it was an extremely lopsided fight.
    I mean, even the knockdown rounds, Fury ended both 9 and 12 stronger than Wilder. (they were
    still 10-8 rounds though).

    I've seen alot of people give Tyson 8 rounds, I think 9 were clear and personally gave him 10. I cannot find more than 2 rounds Wilder won objectively. The crazy thing is I didn't think Tyson was ready for this fight, even post fight, I still don't think he was quite ready and he just excelled. If they rematch Fury stops him, I'm convinced. I can only hope Fury is an underdog in the rematch because I'm gonna put down a substantial amount on him.

    Maybe a few form their own opinion and come to their own judgment.

    Most however let others shape and form their views.

    If this was any other title fight where one guy was spoiling, pitta patta jabbing his way around the ring whilst on the back foot before getting heavily dropped twice and needing Molly coddling from the referee there is no way in he'll they'd be expecting to see his hand raised let alone scream and cry robbery.

    And Fury proves you right. Loads of refs would have called that fight off before reaching 10, most on here wouldn't have thought that unusual and yet he did get up to hear the final bell. I guess they call off counts with the health of the boxer in mind, but really the threat of a count being stopped before the ten seconds have elapsed might be motivation for some fighters to get up too soon and not benefit from the time they should be allowed to recover. That could have health implications too...
