'Fury was almost knocked out in the 12th'

[IronDanHamza]

On NSB if someone lands one shot and momentarily stuns someone they say "HE ALMOST GOT KTFO COLD!!"

[b00g13man]

Not close. He took some shots and was tired.

People just get excited sometimes. Wlad had been frozen by feints and slight movement for 11 and a half rounds. So when he threw and landed it seemed like it had more impact than it really did.

Elroy before the fight = Fury has 1% chance of winning

Elroy after the fight = Wlad was bad, if you believe he'll lose the rematch you're a nutbag

[LacedUp]

It's just typical deluded Klitschko fans trying to find something to pin their hopes on after their man got utterly schooled for eleven straight rounds. Wlad had his best round in the twelfth, there's no denying that, but he didn't come close to stopping Fury and found himself getting roughed up more than in any other round in the fight barring perhaps the ninth. He did land a peach of a left hook at about the one minute thirty mark that looked like it buckled Fury's legs a second, but Fury came straight back a moment later the way he's done countless times in the past. He also caught him with a few decent partially rolled rights earlier on and an uppercut hook near the end of the round but none of those punches came close to hurting Fury. It's cool that this one round is drumming up interest in a rematch since, if this is the general public perception, it'll help improve the odds on a Fury repeat victory, but if I was a Wlad fan I'd be sceptical in drawing any major conclusions from it.

Nail head ...

Fury wasn't hurt in the 12. Klittards clutching at straws.

Revisionist history at its finest. It was Wlad who was almost out on his feet late.

As much as I would like Klitschko to win (not cause I like him or anything), I dont see him winning a rematch. And not because Fury is good either. I just think it's about that time for Klitschko to walk away from the sport.

[beez721]

Yeah exactly. He would have felt them but nothing more. He was in no trouble at any point.

he looked momentarily shook by that final wlad left hook that landed clean but he certainly wasnt badly hurt or on the verge of getting knocked out. I dont think either fighter ever looked in serious trouble but fury definitely won that fight clearly. wlad should have retired after that poor jennings performance like lennox did after the vitali fight at 37 yrs old. wlad hurt his legacy with that awful performance. he looked shot to bits and fought in slow motion. dont understand why so many fighters fail to realize when they clearly dont have it anymore

Klitschko started to throw punches in the 12th so it looked like there was a surge in the action from him, but Fury wasn't remotely troubled. This was a tremendous performance by Fury and the haters can eat **** and die.
