Comments Thread For: Fury: I Beat Wilder 10-2, Highly Impossible To Win Overseas

[R_Walken]

Where Champions are fighting at home it’s pretty common that robberies are draws, because the public wouldn’t countenance a home win, but “oh look at that” the titles stay at home.

Ricky Burns v Raymundo Beltran is a classic example

Or Holyfield v Lewis

Great Point and I get what your saying . I don’t think Fury /Wikder is anywhere near Holyfield/Lewis or Burns /Beltran. No one thinks Holyfield /Burns won those fights and Burns got KD. Wilder /Fury had 40% thinking it was a draw and it was Fury who got dropped twice

yeah that type of sh.it happens all the time in boxing. It’s almost expected that the Home town guy will get the benefit.

Another difference is Fury had the fight wrapped up heading into the 12th. The judge who scored it a draw had him up 2 points all Fury had to do was not get KD and he would have won. But he did get dropped and that cost him the fight

I had no problem with the draw but also won’t knock people saying Fury deserved the W but I don’t think you can call it a robbery

For me a robbery is when at least 80-85% agree who should have won and basically unanimous , this fight where slightly more than half about 60% thought Fury won

That’s why the rematch should’ve happend. Both sides could make a case , Fury won most of the rounds but got dropped twice even Wilder has a case , It’s clear Reiss made the right call allowing the fight to continue but almost all fights would have ended with that KD in the 12th with Furys eyes closed not moving at or before the 6 count

Sh.itty it’s not happening

Fury still had two 8-10 rounds.

Doesnt take much for it to become a draw then.

If fury didnt get dropped twice then he would have won.

If all of those wide looping haymakers missed, Fury would have won. They apparently didnt all miss.

Who are these Americans who get screwed over in Europe? Which fighter, and which country?

your own country almost screwed over one of its own, unless of course you had the degeale / eubank fight scored the same . You realize that if eubank who dominated every round would have lost if he didn’t score the 2 knockdowns. How do you explain that scoring? Those scores were far more off than wilder / fury.

[MC Hammer]

He was robbed.

Whatever you say, but look at the scoreboard who is the WBC champ? Exactly. He scared of that rematch tho

[joe strong]

if you had it 7-5 in favor to fury then fury would have won 115-113..?

anyway, fury won on cards in germany, he was ripped off here. he won most his rounds quite clean.

No count the 2 10-8 rds for the KDs... 113-113

The guy I quoted said Americans get screwed over in Europe. Neither Degale or Eubank are American so this has no baring on what he said.

I'm Canadian & no doubt in my mind there have been more robberies in the US then anywhere else but I could say Holyfield/Valuev but that cancels out as Holyfield was handed a gift draw in one of the biggest robberies every against Lennox. A few Ottke fights against Brewer, Johnson & Byron Mitchell. I'm sure there are more but I don't watch any other weight class other than HW these days. I use to watch all weights. De La Hoya got a gift in the Sturm fight but I won't say Schulz vs Foreman as in my opinion Foreman won a close fight.Every country has robberies & I am taking it that you are from the UK or europe... hahaha! Scott getting counted out at 9 against Chisora is always amusing...

[Curtis Harper]

Actually, 8-4 if Fury is giving himself every non knock down rd.

[Iamsmoke89]

Yeah I think that’s why it’s called a “Draw” lol.

U are absolutely right!!!!
