    Right on the ear is NOT "near the back". It's a perfectly legal punch. It's not borderline, it is not almost illegal. It's 100% OK to punch on the ear.

    totally off topic...but watching the 1st few seconds it seems each of the guys carrying that 273lb dude had way more weight to carry than Deontay's ring walk.

    Hopefully Shaq was nearby to give those lugs some icy-hot.

    I take it that some one somewhere is hatching this as the next excuse off the rank ?

    Legal, even if it was at the back of his head (which it wasn't), Wilder turned his head so it would land like that. Fury threw a normal hook.

    Wilder was hit by a left hook right before Fury's right hand lands. Wilder's knees are buckling from the left hook that's why his head moved down. This wasn't an evasive maneuver to evade the right hand, it was the direct effect of the left hook.

    Perfectly legal right on the ear, where the cut came from.

    Yes he is and the irony is he clumps his opponents round the back of their noggins with rabbit punches in almost every fight or at least the ones that lasted long enough for him to go Bombzsquad on the back of their noggins.

    Here he clumps Molina with one and then in the very next highlight complains about Molina hitting him round the back of the head, and then to top it off in the very next highlight he cracks Molina with another one to the back of the head after the later turned away and KOs him.

    And the shot Fury dropped him with was to the side of the head
