    This article loses a bit of credibility when you consider the author wrote this other article just a couple of days before the fight:

    "Yes, as a matter of fact, Wilder will win big heavyweight battle"

    By Lyle Fitzsimmons - It’s all in the voice. Well… sometimes, at least. Given the nature of boxing as a sport, it’s not terribly surprising that fighters express confidence during interviews. In fact, it’s probably far better for an athlete’s health – given the violent means by which victory is secured – that he or she enter th...


    Better not try being objective Lyle, it's not your thing really.

    You do fairly ok at writing grandiloquent opinion articles, with just enough fanboyism in them to impress some and offend others.

    But objective analysis is certainly not your field.

      Cone of uncertainty?

      It's certain Fury won at least 8 rounds. So shove your cone of uncertainty up your arse.

          Fat Dan got into a dispute with Fury a few years ago around the time of the Klitschko fight, Fury basically called him a fat **** and said that he DKSAB.

          That coupled with Fury being friends with BJS, Fat Dan unfortunately can't hide his bias when judging the fight.

            You'd have to give every close round to Wilder to explain a 115-111 card. Every single round.

            If you had Fury winning 114-112 you were about right but shouldn't cry over the 113-113 score.

              And turning to the 3-D map, we see an unmistakable Cone of Ignorance.

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.
                You’ve totally nailed it. Apart from rounds 9 & 12 Fury, without question, took the fight. Moot point.

                  This is definitely possible, but it's not an excuse! Wilder won 4, possibly 5 rounds total. Fury deserves a rematch in the UK! The question is does he want Wilder, or does he want Joshua? If there's ever a time for a Joshua vs. Fury fight at Wembley, it's now! Joshua already has the date and venue, and Fury is hotter now than ever! Fury might not get up next time! He better strike while the iron is HOT!

                    Its ironic how boxing fans voice their complaints when something like this happens! Fury clearly won but this fight was setup from the start! Fury was not going to win on cards and Wilder's only chance of winning was by KO! If that didn't happen, it was going to be a draw! Boxing is one of the most corrupted sports in the world! All you have to do is follow the scorecards of many pbc events! Stop complaining about ***** that happens all the time in boxing! Yet, most of you continue to support these greedy mf's!

                      Lol this is hilarious. Fat Dan is one of the few media guys who had it for Wilder & hearing this story makes it just a little normal.
