Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury - Official Scorecards - Photo

Again, we have another fight where people are scoring based on the totality of the fight and not round by round. The reality of this fight is, there were many close rounds because Wilder chose to fight one punch at a time, and Fury decided to move more than punch. Neither fighter deserved to win, and anyone who doesn't see how this fight was a draw, or could have gone to either fighter by 1 point is more than likely lacking the knowledge to score a boxing match. All the Wilder haters saying Fury dominated are absolutely ******ed. A boxer who dominates a fight doesn't land 24% of his punches gets knocked down twice, one of which left him out cold for at least 6 seconds. Fury was getting credit for his movement, and more so for what Wilder didn't do rather than what was actually happening in the fight, where as Wilder was not given credit for his jab or body work. I believe when people watch the fight again, many will change their assessment.

I had it 113-113
Gave Wilder the first 2 rounds and one of the middle rounds. I can't remember the round but it was a round where Wilder did some great body work and Fury ran around the ring after a couple of body shots. I believe it was round 5 or 6. Plus the knock downs in round 9 and 12, and you have yourself a draw.

Fury would have won the fight 7-5 on rounds if not for the knock downs, and that's the reality.

One of the judges couldn't even count. He rights 114-112 on top but then his conviction makes him right a score of 114-110 at the bottom of his score cards. Emotion aside though, I agree with him that there were close rounds. Wasn't a blow out as everyone on either side seem to be making it.

Neither fighter did enough to win da fight. Tyson danced around and pop shot here n there didn't put no heat on them punches Wilder threw a few hard shots n knock downs but didn't threw enough. N boxing day and challenger got to cleary beat da champion or it's a draw. Remember u have to beat da champion da champion don't have to beat u

People saying Fury wan't doing much don't know a thing about boxing. Totally controlled the fight for 90% of it. What a performance. 116-110.

I started watching the fight mid 4th rd. The rds Wilder won were the 9th with the behind the head knockdown and the 12th. Fury boxed beautifully and how he got up in the 12th is legendary.

Yea I gotta rewatch the fight the person I went with was a ****ing expert at boxing and I never knew. He had Fury winning based on his movement but said it was close and fair decision.


If this fight makes money not necessarily I think AJ would rather have Wilder over Fury.

But Wilder and Fury might do a rematch.

I can't speak in terms "styles' or whatever... but, at this very point in the UK, AJ vs Fury would make much more money than AJ vs Wilder... (that's how the Brits are...)

I like how Rochin predicted the result in the comments of his card. he was what they call a specialist. They rarely work again,

you understand how scorecards work right? notice how all three are in the same writing?

it's because the judges give their score each round, and the card you're looking at is filled out by one person at the end of the match.

... The "draw" may be fair, but it ruined Wilder's prospects for a huge money AJ fight in April... Now I guess Joshua would take Fury next, for an "all UK fight"...

that fight wasn't going to happen, and everyone knows it.

that fight wasn't going to happen, and everyone knows it.

... by "that fight" you mean Wilder vs Joshua?... well, OK then

At least Rochin watched the fight without beer goggles. The other two-
