Comments Thread For: Referee Reiss Explains Why He Allowed Tyson Fury To Continue

[travestyny]

I had it wrong my bad.

Eh, we're all wrong sometimes. No biggie.

The real controversy is the first "KD" which was an illegal blow in the back of the head (what Wilder did very often without being sanctionned in a lot of this fight).
The replay is without comment.
Fury could have won even in that corrupted PBC show.

It was typical Reiss reffing. Watch this

I mean that is exactly what he did for Fury, including making him walk to his right.

Great refereeing.

Thanks for that. It shows he does it all the time

... He was rooting for Fury, doe...

[BoxOfficer]

Yes, totally agree. Don't blame the ref, the judges, the country, or the date. Let's just hope we get to see a rematch. Tired of seeing bum battles!

Well, its hard not to blame the judge(s); that Cali guy scorecard was criminal. Rematch in the UK can be considered the fairest. At least, Fury has earned it.

Watch the end of the GGG vs Willie Monroe fight. Not only does Jack go down to his knees while counting. He counted to 10 when Monroe then sprung up and said "you just beat it. You just beat it." Then he asked if Monroe wanted to continue and Monroe shook his head NO

Really? That's nice! I'll go see that round. Thanks.

To get to 9.9 those people must have started their timers as soon as Fury hit the deck, but that's not how the 10 count is supposed to start.

The fighter has 10 seconds to get to his feet, which means the count - from one to ten - should start one second after he hits the deck.

Like this .. and 1 and 2 and 3 .. etc

If you start counting as soon as he hits the canvas, like this .. 1 and 2 and 3.. that only gives him 9 seconds, not 10.

Very correct!

These couch potatoes have no idea

[BoxOfficer]

If it was Wilder at the place of Fury that referee will have stopped the fight right away!

You don't know that.

[BoxOfficer]

na that would put it 114-112 for Fury winning. wilder would need to win 5 rounds for it to be a draw.

You just gave that novice a reason to repaint his earlier scorecard. I hope he now comes back and admit that Wilder lost.

[BoxOfficer]

The 2 knockdowns gave him a 2 point advantage in those rounds. Had it a draw.
4 rounds for wilder 2 for KD's=6 of 12= draw
