Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder: I Don't Know How Fury Got Up In the 12th Round

[EasternEuroFan]

That's top level boxing for you.

I said all week in the lead up to the fight that Wilder has had two meaningful fights, Ortiz and Stiverne I, so his KO% in his meanintful fights was 50%. now he has only stopped 1 of 3 in his 3 biggest tests.

He has real power, no doubting that. My point is that history tells us that you just don't stop top level guys that easy, even if you can drop them. Look at GGG and Kovalev, they couldn't continue the KO's at the top level. It's not because these fighters are overhyped, it's just been that way throughout boxing history. Foreman couldn't do it with Ali, Shavers meant to be the hardest hitting heavyweight ever couldn't stop some top guys etc etc.

I've been saying it all along. People need to not get caught up by the highlight reels and understand the game more. Can Wilder knock out everybody? yeah of course he can, but the likelihood is that he won't always do it at this level. It's been that way forever

He didn't beat the 10 count.
Reiss doesn't get to selectively alter the duration of time because he's a fan of Fury.

YAWN.. He was up on 9. There’s half a dozen youtube vids up to prove it. But hey, go rewatch yourself with a stop watch, muppet. Fury won.

Everyone don’t know either!

Never seen anything like it and I’ve been watching boxing for over 20 years, closest come to mind is Shavers vs Holmes!

Fury is a tough out for any heavyweight cuz he’s an almost complete boxer, only thing he’s missing is KO power but he has enough to sting you!

Wilder will have to set up his shots much better in a rematch or he will lose his title for sure, but you can’t take nothing away from the Alabama hamma!

That power is frightening, Wilder was looking for the same shot all nite and still hit a agile mammoth wizard in Fury and was just milliseconds from a KO victory where most refs would call it off!

Simply unreal, the rematch is on top of my lists of fights I want to see in 2019, I smell a trilogy with these two!

Probably the only legit comment in here. Kudos

I need to rewatch it.
Muppet?
Let's keep the punches up young man.
I'm Wilder's No 1 fan and I was shocked when Fury wasn't announced the winner.

Props to both guys.
They genuinely respect each other & they will be able to secure their family's futures with such an epic war of will.
Fury proved me wrong & I was rooting for Wilder, but how can you really cheer against Fury?
Great comeback story & these 2 will fight each 3 or 4 times IMHO.
Joshua either gets KO'd by Wilder or given a clinic by Fury.
Hope Wilder gives Fury a rematch across the pond.
Fury earned it without a doubt.

Great post.

I'm a Wilder fan (U.S. guy), too, but it's great seeing Fury come back from addiction. It's amazing Fury got up from those two monster shots in the 12th. Absolutely sick.

The one time Wilder throws a straight punch, he puts Fury down for a 9 count.

All he has to do is throw straighter punches in combination, and this is an easy fight for him.

I'll say this; I think Fury deserved the decision, but he didnt look overly impressive. Every time he got touched, he got dropped.

If Wilder didnt have the skill set of a rank amateur, it would be an easy night's work.

Respect to Fury for getting up from that KD tho.
