my thoughts on last night

[BLASTER1]

first off...hats off to tyson fury. what a heart. ive always liked the guy but now he officially won me over...im a big fan now....the comeback...the way he fought...the way he picked himself up....the way he handled himself after the fight...the way he called AJ a chicken....fury has himself a new fan through and through...and i suspect im not alone

fury executed his gameplan beautifully....he was boxing wilders ears off....the size,,,the reach..the timing...the awkwardness...it all bothered wilder

when i saw the final punch stats i was suprised...i actually thought fury dominated them even further than the stats showed

the announce team said it a few times during the fight...that the prevailing thought was "fury has to be perfect for 36 minutes...wilder only needs to be perfect for a few seconds"...it sounded like some really corny cliche and ended up ringing 100 percent true

thats the thing about wilder...he got his ears boxed up and still sent a guy down twice and i dont think anyone really thought fury was getting up in the 12th....wilder knew he was getting beat and embarrassed and still found a way to almost end it

it took wilder 12 rounds to finally find where furys head was going to be when he got a big right off...the KD in the 9th was sort of to the back of the head and not real clean shot like the 12th was....fury was doing a good job of bending and being out of the way of that shot every time wilder threw it

wilders team has apparently made some mention that wilder can improve where they dont think fury can when they meet again.....i sort of see what they are saying....and at the least they better hope that....wilder has now seen it live for 12 rounds...fury not easy to replicate in camp and sparring...at least now theyve had a look.....

hats off to tyson fury though...cant say enough about him....he looked pretty damn good...idc what peoples opinions of him are...i think hes legit top 3-4 guy right now....he may not be guy that fought wlad...but he also isnt far off at all....and in some ways might be a bit a better...the guy has heart and i wish him continued success in the ring and out of it

hopefully wilder takes something from this and goes back in the gym with an emphasis on adding more wrinkles to his game....because just doing what he does cant be relied on in a rematch and going forward against AJ or anyone....its hard to teach an older dog new tricks...but wilder needs more

i really dont wanna hear anything about a robbery or any of that BS nonsense...when you lose two rounds 10-8 is pretty hard to get a W......the draw was fair....it was a hail mary miracle for wilder but it did happen and its fair....anyone claming otherwise is just bitter and unrealistic....

anyways...good night of fights....main event was a one sided boxing match mostly with some high drama...overall worth the price and i hope these guys do it again....im thinking wilder may want to take a kownacki fight or something and then do it again

Well said bro.
What I've been trying to say a night.
Aint no robbery.
It was a great fight.
A fight that's got alot of poms calling robbery but whatever it was a draw and that's what I saw.
Can't wait for the re-match.

Tyson is one Hell of a fighter who really surprised me with his slippery upper body defense and overall ring generalship last night. He made Deontay miss punches that he typically lands in his sleep. I must admit. I was wrong about him. Fury is back. So I'll eat my crow. By the way he smashes AJ in a head to head matchup. His only weakness is his chin. It was his chin that cost him the victory last night and allowed Wilder back into the fight to retain his title. Other than that, I thought he boxed just beautifully. A draw was a fair verdict. Tyson won more rounds than Wilder but he didn't do enough to take the title away from him.

Most definitely.
Wilder won't be going anywhere near the UK now for Fury at least while he still holds the belt.

You brought up Kownacki, but I could also see Wilder fighting Breazeale next so he can try some new techniques/strategy on a tall opponent.

9-3 fury easily. wilder is absolutely completely without any boxing skill. fury made wilder look like the uncoordinated amateur he is.
