    Wallin won the fight? Now that’s just disrespectful to Wallin. He doesn’t need anyone to patronize him.

      If Walin were the one cut, the fight would have been ended without question.
      I totally agree with this.

      On the flip side Fury was able to overcome that severe cut and was able to win. I don't doubt Fury's heart or determination.

        What I didn't like was how the commentator told Davison that the cut was caused by a punch and not a headbutt like the corner thought.
        Davison was going to stop that fight.

          Davison was gonna stop the fight? Furys cornerman? Do you mean referee tony weeks? Do you mean the ringside DR?

            The corner man or possibly Weeks.
            Probably up on points & they could have prevented the gash from getting worse.

              You usually talk sense but when it comes to British fighters, you talk a lot of rubbish.

              I agree with you on the drug episode. I think Fury timed his breakdown and "retirement" very well. People don't realise or forgot he was banned for being a drug cheat.

              However there is no need to shine a bad light on the fight continuing. It is not like he was given added time to recover. He was deemed okay to continue and vindicated that decision with his performance.

              Are we really at a point where we are acting as though a winning performance is tainted because the referee didn't decide he was not fit to continue?

It's quite simple and obviously some of these people are new to the sport, that cut was awful. Do we really need to supply examples of cuts that have cost fighters like Vitali to lose? There are plenty more example of far lesser cuts that have saw a fighter lose the fight from it.

                I think Fury fangirls won't really live this one down because it wasn't a headbutt that sliced him up. Hell, even Eddie Hearn is saying Fury should have lost, does that automatically mean he meant it was from Wallin schooling him... duhhh obviously not.

                The whole basis of Fury being allowed to fight like that bloody mess that he was is because they never wanted to lose the huge rematch with Wilder. Now we gotta listen to Fury fans saying crazy ish about Wallin acting as if he is the second coming of Ingemar Johansson, "Greatest southpaw in the heavyweight division" lol.
