Pretty embarrassing thread title really.
If anyone could be bothered, video snips of 20 knock-downs could be compiled showing the count often doesn't start the very second the fighter touches the ground.
Thinking about it, refs often take a second to secure the area and get the other boxer out the way and to a neutral corner. When Cormier and others say he shouldn't delay to get the boxer out the way to a corner, that does actually happen sometimes, and it's the fault of the standing boxer delaying things anyway.
Fury got up at 11 seconds! should of been ruled a KO for Wilder

lmaooo this is why newbies shouldn’t be allowed to post threads. A referee’s count is not counted in seconds, it is by his own interval. He saw fury okay, collected and wasn’t shaky at all. It’d be the stupidiest fight had it been stopped at that point instead of having a classic. And he’d been the stupidiest referee ever.
would you rather have the fight stop at that point? Knowing fury was okay and could very much continue??
Refs are not just counting, they are looking at your condition, at your eyes. Fight should’ve been stopped earlier if we base it on wilder’s condition.

You don't understand how the count works. He was up on the count of 6...you can see the ref's fingers.
what do you think?
I screamed long count out loud as I was watching...dude got two 15 20 counts lol....
They'll fight again though if wilder plays his cards right..
this is the second time fury was given extra time to recover/. coupled with a zombie wilder.
Given time so the bell could ring...he doesn't survive a wilder onslaught there
Fair enough. In my honest opinion Fury won the first fight. It doesn't make any difference to the record books of course. Although if Sulaiman reads this he'll probably make him a belt. 'The MoneyKasha thought you won the fight' champion.
Did the ref count to 11? You understand its the refs ten count not actually ten seconds right? Wilder got his ass kicked again fairly just like he did in the second fight.
