Whatever helped Fury get up in round 12, is inside you too

    I thought Fury won it clearly, but who cares, cos something more special than a win happened in there tonight.

    Fury - seemingly unconscious on the canvas - opened his eyes as if someone had quietly spoken to him. Not shouted, not instructed, no alarm; just a soft voice telling him he can get back up.

    You see, Fury's life has never ever been about being unbeatable. He doesn't represent invincibility. He represents belief, even when you're at your lowest.

    Belief in God, in love, in family; whatever you like. Belief that you can carry on and be okay.

    I thought anything less than a win for Fury would leave me disappointed, but something more valuable happened instead, and is my favourite moment in boxing.

    Seeing this man stand up after being knocked down is more meaningful than seeing him lift the belt. It turns out he was right: it is just a belt.

    There are bigger things in the world

    Peace, everyone.
