Comments Thread For: Malignaggi: If They Didn't Rob Fury, Wilder II Would Be Happening

[kafkod]

Fury claims he was out cold for 4 seconds. Replay of the knockdown and count shows it was 6 (7 seconds if it were to be timed by a stopwatch). I'd have to look closely, though, because there is a point where he snaps out of it. Could be 5 seconds of being totally out cold.

Point is he was out cold, no matter if it were 4, 5, or 6 seconds, and this is the only time in boxing history a fight wasn't waved off immediately.

You obviously only started watching boxing last Dec, or you wouldn't say something so completely and ******ly wrong as that!

Fury was not rob. Dude got dropped twice in two different rounds...Wilder easily won 2 or 3 early rounds to give him a draw or even a win. Fury needs to admit he is ducking and stfu.

Wilder “easily won 2 or 3 early rounds”... you should be put in timeout for such a ridiculous statement.

Wilder needs Fury to fight on PPV Fool
There's a reason Why Wilder only had ONE PPV his whole Life
He doesn't sell Big

Shit! They could put just about any other top 5 ranked opponent in a Pay Per View event and get the same amount of money and results for what they received from the Wilder/Fury fight.

The fight only grossed $14mil; Which wilder cleared only $7mil of it. That is not a lot of money to make for a pay per view fight.

Wilder could make at least twice that amount by fighting on DAZN against opponents like: Adam Kownacki, Luis Ortiz, Dominic Breazeale or Dillian Whyte.

So as a result Wilder won because Fury was not waving or winking to show the fans at home he was ok the minute his head hit the canvas?

Didn't I just tell you, in plain English, that there are many, many examples of things just like this happening before??!!

If there weren't, then why would US fans be constantly whining and complaing about "UK stoppages"... which is when a ref in a UK fight does exactly what you are whining and complaining about Reiss not doing here.

Those would be examples supporting my position, not yours.

I'm asking you to find examples of what Reiss actually did.

It's unprecedented in boxing history.

And he was out cold

Phil Edwards did not. He had Wilder winning rounds 1, 6 and 7. Not the early rounds. I actually did think Wilder won 2 of the early rounds.

I don't know if people are blind have a terrible memory or what but Fury threw very few punches in the 1st few rounds Wilder was way more active early constantly landing the jab to the body.

I was being loose with the term "early", my fault. The early rounds were close and in scoring it depended on what you favored. To me, a lot of what Fury did was sensationalized by his pre-fight back story.

[Straightener]

Do you think these people would read and take that in? They would spin anything to make Wilder look great lol.

your not wrong

And he was out cold

He was resting his eyes
