    Nope...

    118-108 Wilder.

    That herky jerky, showboat and clinch routine wore thin with the judges and it got his goofy ass dropped twice.

    And still!!!!!!!
    Yeah. Still Lineal.

        one round Fury barely threw punches. I don't think anyone gave him that round. Even the judge that had him winning hahaha

          The upset was almost complete. This is where his 3 years of hiatus didn't help, there is a loss of 10% concentration/focus that is needed for the whole 12 rounds in which a sharped great combatant usually can maintain when they regularly fight.

          The Tyson Fury who fought Klitchko would be of course no-brainer better version of this and would have been untouchable with this version of Wilder who is clearly outclassed in this fight anyway, his power ultimately saved him though. But in my opinion, the fight is still 12 rounds and Fury got the super majority of it. But this is the usual problem with fighting in your opponents backyard there is this usually one paid judge or a judge who is playing dumb that will score to a-side. Look, before the fight, I thought Wilder will win by a knockout because of tyson's years of sniffing cokes, drinking alcohol and weight ballooning up to 400 lbs, but I was wrong, it is clear that Tyson Fury is by far the better man in this fight, the skill gap is enormous. Remove the knockdowns and people will be saying Fury totally schooled Wilder.

            No way did Wilder win more than 4 rounds in that fight. I gave him 2

              Tough to see 5 rds wilder and I was pulling for him

                  Tyson Fury is the true champion!

                  He won me over when he got back up in round 12.

                  If the two sides agree to it, I want to see Fury vs. AJ in the UK.

                    Past few years I've found these robberies increasingly harder to stomach. I had to take a few months off from the sport after the last one, Canelo-GGG I. I will be doing the same after this. I can't continue to watch boxing and act like everything is great when it is clearly broken. A man puts on a career-best performance and gets robbed of his victory. Fury has worked all his life for this moment, performed out of this world, and it is taken away from him through underhanded means, just like that. A lifetime's work means nothing. The only consolation is that Fury's Lineal title supersedes any alphabet title now without a doubt. He should refuse to defend it outside the UK. Phil Edwards lives down the road from Tyson Fury and deserves to be shot. I was worried beforehand that he is on the Matchroom payroll. We all know what happened but the history books are what matter, and until there's retrospective action to put these robberies right, there's little point in getting too emotionally engaged in boxing.

                      I think you could argue Wilder was robbed with that long ass count Fury was given for that 2nd knock down
