Comments Thread For: The Deontay Wilder-Tyson Fury Result Wasn't Outrageous

[cameltoe]

Aside from the two rounds Wilder won with knockdowns, I can find 2 other rounds to award him at best. At best. And those were pick ‘em rounds anyway. No clear winner and probably, Fury just edged them mainly by making Wilder look ridiculous by missing, but close enough for me to give them to Wilder without too many complaints.

So 114-112 Fury is a generous score for Wilder IMO.

113-113 is the correct score. The draw was the right result. Thank you for being brave and posting your opinion Michael.

There’s no such thing as a correct score. Don’t take your opinion and try to make it fact.

Just going off of the feel of the fight overall, it felt like Fury won. Aside from the 2 KD, it just ‘felt’ like Fury was winning and it ‘looked’ like Fury was winning.

It's close, i have Wilder winner in my card 114-112. But the ref Jack Reiss should have stop this in twelve round because Fury is Knocked OUT!

I was at the fight. Deontay definitely won a couple of the early rounds. He got sloppy in the middle rounds. I was screaming at the top of my lungs for him to throw straighter punches but he kept throwing that loopy shat. Fury was sharp and taking advantage of this. Deontay buckled down and got his knock downs late. I was in a lounge and when fury went down in the 12th I was jumping for joy giving everyone high fives. It had to be over. Fury getting up from that was the most impressive sporting moment I’ve ever seen. He won my respect in a big way. They both fought hard. Thinking either fighter won clearly is just ******. Draw was the correct decision

Ha ha, it's highly unlikely you thought wilder won.
The only options on table table are either fury won, or did wilder really deserve a draw.

[OCPancho]

That's what I was thinking. With the knockdowns, Wilder won 4 rounds, not impossible to find 2 more rounds to give him for a draw.

YOU DO NOT WIN 4 ROUNDS with 2 knockdowns in 2 separate rounds.
You win TWO ROUNDS AT 10-8 normally.
That does not eliminate the other two rounds .

Winning two rounds with KD's only means Fury got -4 on two rounds.
If he won 8 rounds, HE WINS.
Wilder would be -8.
Fury would be -6.

WILDER DOES NOT GET A DRAW IN WINNING FOUR ROUNDS.
That only gives Fury a -6. Fury would end up with 114.
Wilder would end up with 112 ( 8 rounds lost ).

Your math is way off.

[OCPancho]

Wilder getting a draw from 7-5 in rounds for Fury is not out of this world.

Amd this is why boxing is in the toilet, because journalists and fans try and defend the bull****. Why is it so hard for people just.to admit the home fighter got the rub of the green as they always do.

Rosenthal took a week to say what I have been saying since the night of the fight.

Glad he finally stepped up with the truth tho.

I have no illusions, however.

I know most of you who think Fury won will take his article with a grain of salt.

Some of y'all just can't see past your own biases...
