I dunno but Fury is just a weird dude that can come out fantastic from a looong layoff. The way he fights vs the way deontay does also makes me think he will land some good shots quite easily. FIght is on right now!
This might turn out to be a great boxer vs slugger classic but judges will rig this for wilder to fight joshua for the 100million megafight lol

My God man that was fucked up. Props to TYson for just being a weird dude to be okay with that haha
Tyson lit him up for the entire fight except for 1 and those two knockdowns, even with those two KDs Tyson even kept active
tbh i really felt Tyson took a dive in this fight to make it a draw. it's just a weird feeling how accepting he's been about it, also the way he moved after that deathly looking KD, the way he moved right after just wasn't realistic at all he was really fine like nothing happened. he got hit by a telegraphed punch he was easily avoiding the whole night, plus that 1st KD surprised me. Post fight it was almost like he was acting like Wilders promoter lol
Fury kept stressing how he thanks Wilder for giving him the fight, he was very grateful because Wilder didn't have to but decided to give him a shot. At the end of the fight Wilder looked like he got his clocks cleaned, he was barely there. I just dont wanna believe boxing anymore because 2 more fights would give these people a ton more $$, they dont even need Joshua anymore.
This is the reason I like the UFCs model, because without an entity being held accountable, there's just too much incentive to fix outcomes.

Try to stop and actually put yourself in Fury's shoes so you can begin to see how remarkable of a job you'd have to do to cover every angle, control the fight and then dive to exactly a draw on 3 judges cards. Then discard the rest of your conspiracy
That 115-111 really was ludicrous though. Surprising yet not so surprising. It's so insane that boxing continues to have the same problems and no reform in forever has been attempted. Corrupt commissions, belt organizations, the same incompetent/possibly bought 85 yr old judges being brought back over and over even after bad scorecard jobs.
Some simple ideas like 5 judges instead of 3 for headline fights and faster revolving door of judges controlled by a central commission (currenrly, a comparison is like these judges having tenure like professors do at colleges which is obv stupid applied in this industry) would help a lot
Real shame too because as has been said, there's nothing quite like the drama in sports imo of late Rd heavy knockdowns in boxing. Martinez vs Chavez Jr some years back was even better than this. It's just that MMA is simply run better business wise in terms of getting fights together and less of this judging bullshit
Ugh I just don't trust boxing after GGG vs Canelo 1 and a whole list of recent fights. Everybody's dodging each other until such time both parties are completely happy with whatever the outcome is.The incentive to rig the judging is just too strong. It's just mostly entertainment now and the randomness is kind of lost in boxing.
