            It’s because he was hitting wilder with the palm of his hand and not his knuckles. So he wasn’t making a Fist at those times.

              I’d explain it by the commission and Wilder’s team were in the room watching him get wrapped and had the opportunity to inspect the gloves after they were put in and signed on so that they could be tampered with afterwords.
              Do you really think Fury and his team would be able to pull something knowing all it would take is the commission or Wilder’s team to see something fishy to blow it up? That’s a huge risk.
              Just admit Fury is just a step above a limited fighter like Wilder and move on.

                The Ali-style flicked jabs that Fury was throwing in Wilder's direction all night. The gloves weren't floppy, Fury's hands were.

                Flicking jabs like that needs the entire lower arm and hand to be relaxed and loose.

                They're not primarily used to cause damage, they're used to score points and distract an opponent.

                Fury has been influenced heavily by Ali during his career. We've seen flicked jabs, rope-a-dope and of course plenty of messing around in the ring, teasing opponents and mouthing off to them during a fight. And of course he winds up opponents during press conferences too.

                  This again? Floopppy or non floppy fury beat the living hell out of wilder.

                    Beyonce fans...in all honesty, how do you explain being supporters of a cherry-picking paper champ who was protected for years and then got schooled by a geriatric Cuban pensioner twice before getting lucky, and followed that by getting whooped by a chubby gypo three times?
