    When you speak of ring generalship as waggling ones hips and sticking the tongue with zero result besides looking like a twat, yes, it is like you're speaking another language.

    What??? Fury clearly outworked Usyk. That's not even debatable. Compubox might have trouble deciding what lands and what doesn't, but it is very accurate at determining who throws more punches.

    Fury threw 496 punches, Usyk only 407. Yet you claim that Usyk outthrew Fury by a lot? What fight were you watching? Fury clearly outthrew Usyk by a lot. In round 1, Fury outthrew Usyk 37-18, in round 2, Fury outthrew Usyk 40-26, in round 3 Fury outthrew Usyk 46-32.

    For you to say Usyk outthrew Fury "by a lot", that actually mad.
    In rounds 1-3, it was both : ring generalship and punch quality, since of the # of landed punhes were about even. I gave Round 1 to Usyk, Round 2 and 3 to Fury. Though round 2 I was conflicted about. Round 1-3 were each extremely close. To argue any one of those 3 rounds were clear or easy to score is bonkers.
    No one scored 4-6 like they were 10-8s or 10-7s. But they were more clear for Fury than rounds 1-3 if that's what you mean.

    It wasn't *just* that, it was also how Usyk was reacting to what Fury was doing. When Fury is able to do that kind of stuff, get away with it, and actually land punches while doing that, it gives the impression that he's in complete control and just having fun in there.

    Fury was actually setting traps for Usyk and trying to play mind games with him while he was showboating. And it was working. Usyk got caught with good shots while Fury was clowning around with him.

    He didn't set anything. He got nothing out of it. Usyk just setpped back.

    I'm done with this side show. Bye.

    Ya I dont understand people saying that the fight should have been stopped in the 9th. Clearly, Fury was able to continue.

    Most folks I know are not annoyed at that, it's that the referee stepped in when Fury couldn't defend himself, blocking Usyk from a final salvo!

    If it was because the ring protected him, the ref could have stepped in for the 8 count on the 3 other ring lands that kept Fury up. Then the count was ridiculously slow with maybe a 6-8 second gap after the 8 count to ensure the bell saved Tyson.

    But generally speaking if the ref has to step in to protect a fighter than can't protect themself, they should be waving it off

    Chisora has the beat!

    I mean it's mental to even click on ignored user to read what shadow say, so no reason to answer to this mentally unstable person.
    I mean there is delusion and delusion, and this guy beat them both by a large margin.

    He doesn't have a clue how a boxing fight is scored, he doesn't have a clue what ring generalship is. Based on him Fury won the Round 9, as he was showboating in that round.
    This guy scored the first round where Fury did absolutely nothing for Fury, cause he was showboating, this is all you need to know about this individual and should you take him seriously for literally anything.
    I don't even understand how they released him from the madhouse. Take your pills and be quiet troll.

    Exactly the same for me, but, I'll say this, the first few rounds in which Usyk won, Fury was more competitive than we first thought and the rounds that Fury won, Usyk was also more competitive than we thought. The end result was a clear win though for Usyk.
