This #WilderFury judging takes me back to my first fight with @holyfield Just goes to show how hard it is for a Brit to come to America and take someone’s belt even tho that’s what we clearly saw. Big up to @Tyson_Fury who never ceases to amaze me. Hold ur head high! ——

Seriously though, would Tyson Fury have gotten up from from that 12th round knockdown if he wasn’t the Gypsy King? #ThugjitsuThoughts—

Boxers are fucking amazing athletes but the politics behind the scenes have ruined boxing and spoil the life long labor these guys put in to get to the top. Another great fight overshadowed by controversy.

In this instance (call me crazy) I think the draw works. One guy outworked and won rounds and the other guy threw heat and had 2 knockdowns. Can you recall someone ever having 2 KD to 0 in boxing, lose the fight?

I think Fury won that fight. Wilder had the 2 knockdowns but was out boxed the other at least 9 rounds maybe even 10. #tysonwilder

But you gotta factor in ring control and more power punches I think wilder won

Unbelievably proud of @Tyson_Fury in this #WilderFury fight. No one comes back from depression like he did, and no one gets up from @BronzeBomber shots like he did. That judge who had #Wilder at 115-111 needs to leave the sport of #boxing @ShowtimeBoxing @SHOsports
