Should Wallin have been awarded a TKO victory?

    But I can't help but think that, had Wallin experienced two exceptionally bad cuts that poured so much blood into his eye that he couldn't see punches coming, that fight would have been stopped by the same referee who didn't even ask if Tyson could see.

    What do you guys think?
    Not much better than Vitali's eye and he was stopped so I'm on the fence. The difference was that Vitali had less blood getting in his eye than Fury.....interesting.

      There's a joke here, but I can't put my finger on it.

      All seriousness aside, Fury was fighting back very well, so that was a factor in his favor. Wallin wasn't hitting him often enough on that eye for anyone to say "Fury can't see 'em coming."

      A question is how it heals. Some fighters find the cut re-opening almost every fight until they have to retire.

I guess we got to see Fury's heart after all is said and done. He managed to fight through it and get a gritty win. I have to wonder how Wilder or AJ would have handled that adversity.
        Not saying you are right or wrong but Lewis did way worse when he realized that Vitali had a major cut

            Problem is, I didn`t realise where did this cut came from. It is not like Wallin threw some huge shots in tyson`s head. Strange. Tyson may find it difficult to heal this.

              Fight should've been stopped ,it was obviously a more bad cut then we usually see with far less ones get stopped,Fury didn't even geta Refs questioning gof how many fingers can he see ?. Fury is lucky hes the Arum guy here otherwise its over. This isn't saying he was losing he was winning but had Wallin got the same cuts he wouldn't be allowed to fight on anyone who thinks otherwise is a liar. lol

                I would also add two points: (1) the commentators sent someone over to Fury's corner to make sure they knew that the cut was ruled from a punch...this was not the commentators job, they are supposed to remain impartial, (2) not once did Weeks ever say anything about the amount of vaseline/ointment on Fury's cut. At times there were gobs of this stuff that most refs would have insisted the corner wipe off.

                  Fury had blood pouring in his eye half way through the fight just stop , you sound foolish.

                    The inventions I referred to are male to female nonsurgical gender correcting prosthetics. Which is just a long way of saying rubber ******s for pre-op *******s.

                    I'd show y'all but they got rid of panda's booty panda. Not sure it's allowed.

                      Fury's eye could have been hanging out of the eye socket and bouncing around his lower cheek area and they wouldn't have stopped it because of all the money involved with Fury vs Wilder 2.
