Agree that most referees would have waved it off when he hit the canvas like that. The fact that he came back to dominate the rest of the round shows what a great piece of refereeing it was from Jack Reiss. Fury benefiting from the referee doing something right doesn't justify the awful judging cards.
Exactly!!!! They tell the fighters, walk to me and put your hands up, I guess it was the same.
No he's not you absolute fucking ******. Yes the instruction was different but it didn't add on any extra time. Watch it again. He tells Fury to walk from there to there which he immediately does. And waves the fight back on when Fury is able to comply.
Maybe you'd see what actually happened if you got up off your knees and wiped Wilder's cum out of your eyes.
This reminds me of the Groves vs Froch 2 fight. Groves got up before 10 too.
You really are the biggest ****** on this forum right now. You cannot compare the two situations.
Groves jumped up and was fucking staggering around like a drunk. Fury got to his feet before 10 and was STEADY on his feet and responding to all instructions. Hence the fight goes on.
Which part of that would you like me to explain to you again? I'm always happy to help newbies and casuals to the sport.
Case closed at around 5:30 Tyson clearly clarifies that he was not out and just taking his time to recover because you don’t know what your legs will be like. Which is the smart thing to do, Tyson fury is a legit beast and legend.
are you going to pretend Reiss didn't say walk from that side of the ring to the other.
it was a completely unusual instruction to give Fury more time.
i just want you to point to another instance that Reiss did this in another fight.
This same instruction, EXACT SAME, walk a couple steps to the side (not from one side of the ring to the other) and then back to me, was actually given in this very event during the under card by a different referee (pretty sure it was Kauffman)
I think the way Fury reacted to punches was a bit worrying. Especially since the punches weren't even bad and he's abused his body quite badly for his age.
But that's a very different topic from the fight outcome. He clearly just took his time getting up both times to recover & took up where he left off. It wasn't like he was tripping around the ring on another planet ala Kostya-Judah.

As I said. He didn't want to pull a Judah/Tszyu Bambi moment. Which is what would have happened.

Every knockdown of significance is followed by the Referee instructing the fighter to walk in some manner so they can evaluate if they are fit to continue. Is this the first fight you have ever watched?
