  • Comments Thread For: Wilder-Fury Draw Falls Within Scoring "Cone of Uncertainty"

    By Lyle Fitzsimmons - In Florida, we call it the "cone of uncertainty." Whenever a hurricane clears the island of Hispaniola in the eastern Caribbean, meteorologists of every Sunshine State persuasion are sent scrambling to computer models to trace the path of the would-be storm as it approaches our tourist- and retiree-sopped penins...

    A draw certainly does, but not the Mexican judge's score. I can't make a case for that. I accept that some will greatly value power over volume, which is why a draw is easily understandable. But to go to that extent should require an explanation, and then review.

      I called it a "possible spectrum" of scores.

      In this case, it's 114-112 either way.

        lol
        Wasnt this “scoring cone” drivel already used by the dumbos on this site to explain away another controversial decision before?

        Sorry, some people who watch fights have eyes, they will believe what they actually saw happen, not what narrative you try to feed them. Even if I had not actually seen it myself, the fact you are even doing this tells me all I need to know about what actually happened in this fight. Stop trying to warp opinions, they exist for a reason.

          Fury won at least 8 rounds, therefore he won. Anyone who thinks otherwise is either a Wilder fan boy, or doesn't know how rounds are scored. Also, just because Wilder is the harder puncher, doesn't mean that he has effective aggression. His aggression was effective in two rounds, and not at all in either other. Fury also won in defence and ring generalship by a long, long way. Learn boxing, learn how to write, then come back here.

            A single draw - to find 3 rounds outside of 9 and 12 to give Wilder - may be within the realms of possibility, just, but it's definitely an outlier. For 2 out of 3 judges to find 5 or more of the rounds for Wilder is something else, I think.

            Regardless, it opens up the same argument raised by other high profile scoring controversies in the last coupla years. This is a populist sport, a fight ffs sake ... if the judges ain't seeing things the same way as the large majority people who come along or pay to watch this ish for their pleasure, then maybe it's the judging that needs changing to reflect what people know they saw, not public opinion that needs to be brought in line with the judging.

            Just a thought.

                Stop trying to excuse a robbery. The judge had Wilder winning 7 rounds which didn't happen.

                I wish people would look at the score instead of the result. It is more indicative of intent.

                    95% of people had Fury winning and winning well. The few who didn't have no credentials or bias. Dan Rafael, an absolute mug, stealing a living, and Eli Suck ****, and maybe one or two more.
