We're in the minority here, but I agree.
What's laughable is reading how Paulie did such a "great job" commentating. I specifically remember thinking how Paulie was saying how Fury was dominating with the jab in the first couple of rounds, and honestly he was missing most of those. And it was Wilder making him miss. What happened in the 2nd half of the fight everyone agrees..... and nobody is disputing the fact that Fury actually won the fight. But the bias of boxing fans never fails to amaze in a big fight. ;D
But I'll be watching the replay....... on MUTE. I'll probably have Fury winning the fight, but with a fairly close score.

Totally. There was one point where Fury threw 3 or 4 jabs and Wilder avoided them with his head movement. There were other times Fury landed on the guard and the commentary was going overboard. It was getting a bit silly. Then Mayweather saying Fury was 5 up and I thought 'This is really not quite what I am seeing at all'.

Not that I want to agree with Floyd, but that is how I saw it at the time.
