    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/boxing/2...-fury-denied/r




    https://www.washingtonpost.com/sport...on-fury-fight/
    https://www.apnews.com/d71a27179bba42c4995afa42f1de1f36

    Apparently "******.com" is a bad word on this forum so that source doesn't show.

    EDIT: Added boxers' scores.

      Bob Velin's doesn't count he works for PBC.

      But, but, but WBCWBAIBF said the majority don't think Fury won.

        Not so hasty, we'll put it to a vote first.

        I think Velin is a freelance journalist also?

        We should try to nail how "ringside observers" scored this fight as unambiguously as possible.

                I scored it 115-111 Fury and I honestly believe I get it right at least 99% of the time.

                Dan Rafael had it 114-112 Wilder and everyone was giving him ***** on Twitter, lol

                  Copied this here for relevance

                  BoxingScene spoke to 14 leading experts and 6 had Fury winning. That's not a robbery.

                  I already included all of the experts in that thread in my original count.

                  The flaw I see is that you pick and choose which statistic to emphasize in order to fit your agenda. For instance you don't mention that five times as many experts gave the fight to Fury compared to Wilder.

                  You said you had 30 ringside sources that you were using for your "the majority of ringside experts didn't have Fury winning" declaration so why don't you post them for us?

                    Then you should also remove all the people who work for Golden Boy.
