He's also fought multiple times on prime time network television with millions of viewers. He stars in major reality show, has over one and a half million followers on instagram, etc. He's a star in the US.

    Fury was a strong b-side, but he was still the b-side.
    Very interesting, but how many PPVs did this US star sell in the US prior to fighting Fury?

      BoxingScene's own list of top experts had 8 out of 14 saying Fury didn't win. So don't act like my personal opinion has anything to do with this.

      Wilder winning? Maybe you could cry robbery.

      A draw? You look ridiculous crying robbery.
      Disputed your figures you kept spouting by posting actual verifiable sources. And I asked you a dozen times to add some of your sources that voted Wilder and you never did.

      And I never "cried robbery", all I did was post a summary of the actual press scores. And somehow just those simple facts put you on the defensive.

        Same amount as Fury. Zero. Which makes the number of buys that much more impressive. Two guys making their PPV debut. Might be one of the highest buyrates in modern history for two guys making their PPV debut.

            Fury is a star. Wilder will probably do quite well in reality TV shows after sharing a ring with him.

              Did you verify that all the scores were from press row? Big difference between some ****** with a website watching on TV and an actual legitimate reporter who is scoring the fight from ringside.

                Fury won 10 rounds on your scorecard but most other scorers gave Wilder 1 or 2 or even 3 of the rounds that he didn't didn't score a knockdown in. Wilder was the aggressor and threw more and harder punches all fight. According to computer count Wilder outscored Fury in one of the non knockdown rounds. There were rounds where Fury landed only 5 light punches and Wilder landed maybe 4 harder punches. Did Fury really win a round like that? I think Fury deserved the win but I think the fight was close enough not to be called a robbery. 40% of viewers thought Wilder won or earned a draw and if it was a robbery the percentage would be much lower.

                  I doubt you are even at these fights. What's your name? I'll be able to verify you.

                  I go to a lot of fights. Some as press, most as a fan and I can honestly say you get a better and more accurate view on TV unless you are basically at the ring. I'd be curious to know how you're always in the first row on press row. I've scored fights live and then felt much better about my TV score.

                  Ringside press play favorites too especially at PBC where the wrong scorecard may get you blacklisted.

                    Did you verify the boxingscene scores you keep quoting were from press row? Half of them were from websites as well! Including the scores from this site! But they were "respected ringside experts" when you were quoting them.

                    I've said it a dozen times already, if you know more than I do than tell me which scores should be disqualified. And I'm still waiting on some of those 30 ringside sources of yours that you keep mentioning as well.

                      Yes he is, but not as big a star as Wilder in this country. Wilder was the A-side for a reason. Wilder has more instagram followers for a reason. It's not a slight against Fury. But it's idiotic to give the A-side no credit for a PPV selling well, while trying to give all the credit to the B-side.

                      This was all a big win for Wilder and for Fury. Cong**** to both.
