I gave him rounds 4, 10, and 12, with round 12 being the only round he won decisively.
Lets discuss the official scorecards

They were laying it on thick on th UK broadcast too, the robbery was in progress until the 6th.The scorecards reflect a robbery in progress until it was all too clear who was winning, plain and simple. Wlad lost almost every round, and it could be argued every round. How can you win if you don't throw any punches and your competitor gleefully dances around the ring like he's practicing for the after fight party?
117-109 Fury....Comment

Fury was landing very little. He landed very little of substance throughout the fight, but in the first six rounds in particular he landed very few heavy shots. They weren't 'clear' Fury rounds by any stretch of the imagination.Comment

Ring generalship is third on the list for a reason. It's subjective. Clean punching and effective aggression are both more important. Fury was not landing many clean punches. And he wasn't aggressive, never mind effective.People who had it close are either biased or don't understand Ring Generalship. The entire fight Fury made Wlad fight the way Fury wanted him to. So even in the rounds where neither guy landed much you still give the round to Fury since he was dictacting the pace and neutralizing Wlad. Round 12 was probably the closest to being a clear Wlad round since he landed more meaningful punches. Other than that, rounds 1-11, you can easily make a strong case that Fury won them all and There wasn't a clear winning round for Wlad during that same stretch.
I had Fury winning, but the wide scorecards are way off.Comment

The scorecards were fine. I scored it 9-3 Fury. You must not know how to score boxing if you didn't give Wlad the 12th round, come on.Comment

Its subjective to a point, but theres a reason pretty much everyone had Fury winning clearly despite him not landing that much.Ring generalship is third on the list for a reason. It's subjective.

He completely dominated in the 'ring general' stakes, so even the rounds which were close in punches landed became clear Fury rounds.Comment

Official scorecards were good in my opinion.
There were a few rounds not decisively won by either, the 115-112 cards probably gave Wlad the nod for those.Comment
