Why Every Fury Acolyte Needs to Pray The Rematch With Wilder Doesn't Ever Happen

You don't make someone look like a fool by only landing 1-2 more punches a round, most of them pitta patta flurries that would make Amir Khan proud. What fury did well was slipping punches, but that isn't enough to win rounds, as the judges don't score on defense and running. It's in fact considered a negative. The aggressor is more likely to be given the benefit of a round as in their doing so they are at a greater risk of missing or shipping punches over a play safety first fighter.

Most of the significant power punches Wilder landed. Fury never hurt the champ and never did anything special during the entire fight to convince anyone truly impartial that he deserved to win the belt. The only person that was made to look like a fool was the guy that was heavily dropped twice and knocked out unconscious.

I respect your opinion that you think Fury will win in a rematch as you have given your reasons, but make no mistake, Wilder will find his range a lot earlier than he did in the first and will not be giving up over 30lbs

 

I would love to see the rematch. I just think if it happens Fury's long term health and career is in serious jeopardy and I don't want to be the one who said I told you so when the gofundme pages go live.

 

I said Wilder landed the more significant power punches. Which is why Fury's nose got broken and was backing up and holding/spoiling through the majority of the fight.

There is no denying Fury had his moments successfully landing flurries and looking pretty, but they did not cause any significant damage to Wilder.

I agree the 12th he backed Wilder up, but that was too little too late, as in that same round he got knocked out and when he got back up he himself found himself backed up on the ropes desperately trying to avoid a barrage of punches himself.

Look Fury put up a good show and fought valiantly as I assumed he would. I said it was going to be Wilder's toughest fight and it would be a 50/50 tight fight with Wilder coming out on top which he did.

Just like Ward had his moments and had some nice looking boxing moments in the first Kovalev fight, most thought he didn't do enough to win because Kovalev was landing the power shots right until the end, was the champ and achieved the knock down.

The only difference is Kovalev is white

 

I don't think I ever said that pal.

I said Fury would put up a good fight and make it awkward with his size and reach and get knocked out until his eyes roll to the back of his head but he will get back up to his feet to be given a honorable end.

 

Watch the kovalev fight again, Ward did the similar job to Fury, in the second half of the fight. Made Kovalev miss from round 6 onward, made, roughed him up on the inside, pot shotted and jabbed his face off, yet no one in their right mind would say Ward deserved the win. Kovalev did enough to earn a win or a draw because he was the champ, visibly hurt Ward and dropped him once.

Now WIlder not only hurts Fury throughout the fight but also causes significant damage along with 2 knockdowns, and you are labelled insane if you say he did enough to win.

This is why it is unquestionable that the only difference is that Kovalev is white.

Do you really believe that if Kovalev had knocked down Ward twice and ward's only claim to glorify was a few flurries ,showboating and a sob story, that anyone on here would be arguing a case for Ward winning?
