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

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....
      They were laying it on thick on th UK broadcast too, the robbery was in progress until the 6th.

        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.

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.
          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.

          I had Fury winning, but the wide scorecards are way off.

              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.

                Its subjective to a point, but theres a reason pretty much everyone had Fury winning clearly despite him not landing that much.

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

                  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.

                    The UK broadcast always give the other fighter rounds he doesn't deserve

                    HBO/American TV in general is a lot better when it comes to scoring imo.

                      To say Wlad won 5 rounds was a joke.
