    It was...Fury won clearly and that 115-111 card was a joke !

    We as fans should stop trying to justify obvious robberies and rigged fights

      Yup. Fury landed the clean effective punches and not only that his defense as he dodged and slipped and slide was phenomenal. Entertaining fight. Sad that another robbery happened.

          What was unreasonable is the judge who gave 7 rounds to wilder. I’d argue less with people who say wilder only won the 2 rounds he scored knockdowns in. Fury won.

            The greatest comeback in history. He said he would outbox wilder and did. Fury win like I said hevwould. But I didn't take into account the judges robbing fury. I was thinking fury will outbox him so bad how can he be robbed it didn't make mathematical sense?

              You have to be kidding. Absolute worst case scenario for Fury is 115-111 (that's giving Wilder 3 rounds, two 10-8s and one benefit of the doubt). To give Wilder more than that you really have to be giving him ridiculous benefit of the doubt in close rounds. In other words, you have to be biased. Fury actually won the rounds he got knocked down in besides the knockdowns but not in a dominant way so he still loses both of those rounds 10-8. Besides all this, this is a robbery if there ever was one for one obvious reason: the judge giving Wilder 7 rounds was clearly paid off.

                Robberies are definitely claimed more than they are proven so you could very well be proven correct.

                  When showtime, the network that was backing Wilder, had the first 5 rounds wide, then there is no point trying to make excuses about it been close.

                    Thats another point, those two rounds i would like to see both fighters tally of punches landed. Because after the KD on both occasion Fury hurt Wilder and even press the action more than the tiring Wilder.

                      It is pretty easy to give Wilder 3 rounds aside from the rounds with knockdowns as Fury was not doing much with the opportunities he created in about 6 rounds. Sure he was out boxing Wilder and making him miss but Wilder was the one doing work, mostly ineffective work but a lot of judges value that sort of effort especially if the other guy is not doing all that much work themselves.

                      Giving Wilder 7 rounds like the one judge did would be pretty difficult to argue but 113-113 is pretty easy to get to. That is on Fury though because he could have made those 6 rounds a lot more in his favor than he did with just a bit more effort offensively.
