      Good fight Fury showed why he’s considered one of the best. I just have one question. Is it really a DQ when you get knocked down and you get up an put your hands on the ref shoulder for support?

      The rematch should be in the U.K. wilder has to since Fury came to his back yard

        You're supposed to get up on your own. Usually if you grab on to the ropes or the red, they'll call it. But Fury recovered decently. It was a very thin line there. But it's all up to the refs discretion.

          I suggest you check your stopwatch. It's running very quickly. To get 17 seconds he must have been knocked down before the punch was ever thrown.

          A pretty normal count has Fury just rising just at 10. This count was a second or so slow but that really doesn't matter. Much better a slightly slower count than a faster one. Give Fury credit for getting up at all. Give Wilder credit for pulling that out of his backside when he needed it most.

            Yeh probably. At the same time I'm glad it was the other way round instead of the ref calling it without giving someone a chance to compose themselves which happens way to much.

                A good fighter would have finished the job. But Wilder isnt a good fighter. He was even buzzed in the latter part of the round.

                    Refs are not supposed to give fighters time to compose themselves. Lol that's not ok.

                      Fat boy could barely stand and was holding on to the ref after he got up.
                      I noticed that too. After both get-ups, Fury put his gloves on ref's shoulders. I noticed also, at least in the 2nd KD, ref quickly pushed his gloves off of him.

                      But it shows how much quicker Fury is than his namesake. When Mike Tyson tried to use the ref to get up after the KD from Douglas, he couldn't do it. LOL, I know not quite the same.
