    Proof Fury was robbed? Pacquiao/Horn.

    Don't rant. Look at the facts.
    • Jeff Horn was the aggressor in 7 of the 12 rounds.
    • Jeff Horn controlled and dictated the pace of the fight in all but four rounds.
    • Jeff Horn's actual connect percentage was low.
    • By and large Manny wasn't active enough throughout the fight.


    Jeff 'The Hornet' Horn would go on to beat Manny unanimously at the Battle of Brisbane. There were no controversies about draws or anything with the judges. None of them Australian, mind you.

    Now, let's look at last night.
    • Tyson Fury was the aggressor in 7 of the 12 rounds.
    • Tyson Fury controlled and dictated the pace of the fight in all but one round.
    • Tyson Fury's actual connect percentage was low, but higher than Wilder's.
    • By and large Wilder wasn't active enough throughout the fight and when he was active, he was missing punches.


    What I saw was a very similar flow that should have resulted in a very clear unanimous for the Gypsy King. But what happened?

    What happened was that the judges gave Wilder the benefit of the doubt, likely because he's the champion. In rounds where neither guy really shined, they just defaulted to give them to Wilder. I know some people think that's good, but it's not. You're rewarding half-ass effort and just causing problems. Same situation with Badou Jack when he fought Adonis Stevenson.

    I think judges are actually taught to do this so I don't blame them. I blame the system. If a champion doesn't fight to keep their belt, they should lose it.

    Tyson was unresponsive at count 5. that's a wave off 99.9% of the time.


    Tyson was gifted a draw. This was a KO12 for Deontay.

      Look at his eyes in that very screenshot, bro. He's looking dead at the ref, smiling.

        both were hometown robberies. fury from teh uk robbed in deontay's USA. pacquiao from the philippines robbed in horn's australia. clear as day. pac and fury both robbed. high profile robberies. disgusting.

        both pac and fury didn't deserve to be treated like dirt. both guys showed tremendous heart and deserved those wins. this boxing is not a sport. this boxing is a circus show rigged corrupt joke.
