The knockdown shot Wilder could never recover from.

This frame is the exact moment of impact:




His hand did slip and cuff him. Here's that frame:

Where did it hit??

[WBC WBA IBF]

Why are you only showing a single frame and not the whole thing? I already posted the exact moment of impact and it wasn't the back of the head.

This single frame IS the exact moment of impact:



I'm showing the single frame so you can actually see exactly where the punch initially landed.

Let’s sing WBC!

Let it go, let it go
Can't hold it back anymore
Let it go, let it go
Turn away and slam the door

What's the point of this? That it was supposed to be illegal or something?

The knockdown Wilder couldn't recover from was the one in the 5th round that was caused by a BODY SHOT. I'm pretty sure the body is not connected to the ear.

It clearly hits behind the ears still on the side of the head although close to the back especially if you look at the angle from the top.

But you know this thats why you are using a pespective that show the top of the glove covering the head and a angle that shows the contact point where you can see the glove touching the side of the head.

No credibility go back to kissing your sister but don't post the pics on here again.

There are plenty of people suggesting Fury simply outclassed Wilder, that Wilder would have no chance in a rematch, etc.

Clearly these people are unaware, or ignoring the fact that accidental or not, Wilder was hit with a brutal blow directly to the back of the skull. Any "out classing" that took place after that was simply a dead man with a ton of heart continuing on when a lesser man would have never gotten up.

I've seen some compare this to Joshua and Ruiz, but Ruiz landed a clean legal punch to the ear. No part of his glove was behind the ear whatsoever, wheras Fury's entire glove was behind the head and none of it touched the ear.

Wilder was in no way outclassed in the first fight, a lot of the first 6 rounds were close and I gave wilder at least 3 or 4 of them, ive tried having sensible conversations with some of the brits about it but they refuse to deal correctly and be honest. the punch was on the back of the head I gree, but the way wilder was turning added to it, furys was landing with intention Saturday, from the first jab he landed I knew something was different.

This is what happens when you slip a right cross slipping to the right.

So with that, if the punch did land on the back of the head, it was caused by Wilders poor technique. Its not like Fury was continually clubbing away. Besides, how did his ear start bleeding getting hit in the back of the head?

[CubanGuyNYC]

Keep reaching, he hit him behind the ear then his punch slipped and it cuffed him behind the head. The main impact was behind the ear, not the head.

Not that I needed it personally but this overhead angle effectively ends the debate. The punch in question does not strike behind the head. Perfectly legal blow.

[ThomasJK]

Legal strike. It doesn’t matter where the punch landed, wilder turned and dropped his head, when he should have had his left hand up to defend the shot. Which he did not. The glancing blow give me the perspective that fury didnt intensionally go for a rabbit punch, as his punch was already in motion when wilder dropped his guard and his head. My two cents
