That seems to be par for the course nowadays where the ref has to play 20 questions and do a dance with somebody getting up from a knockdown
He definitely beat the count but I don't how because he looked like he was out cold. Maybe it's the miracle of drugs.
He .will be given every benefit of the doubt and any upper hand the ref can afford to give him. Wilder knows this and he will be ready for him. Wilder is fighting for every disadvantaged youth in America. He will have God and glory on his side. Fury will have the ref and the judges on his side
The referee can keep counting until they get the stretcher in the ring to haul the Gypsy Queen to the Emergency Room...
