Should Wilder prove that he broke his arm?

Fenster, I am not sure you have proven a point there. You have made me read a lot of information and not be particularly convinced that 13 seconds extra time....beyond the count (which was fine)....is fine. It was too long and many have commented on that. A handful of seconds should have sufficed.

Either way, the fight is what it was and a draw is what we have, so I accept that along with the decision. Every fight has something a bit different.

The point is he followed the rules to a tee. I understand you don't agree with the time it took before Wilder was allowed to punch Fury again, you would have loved the old days, brutal, and as @ryanman pointed out under British rules it looks like Fury should have been counted out (I was surprsied he didn't waive it off originally). But all different commissions have slightly different rules, even down to the wrapping of hands and whether or not corners can stop fights.

Yes, I am a classicist. I am glad they didn't stop it though, that was proper.

Why would you not just postpone the fight considering its magnitude? Do you believe him? Should he provide medical proof to back up what he is saying?

Wilder should prove to us, round by round, why he felt he deserved a draw against Fury let alone a win.

That tape-session should be interesting!

To me , that is conning the public and he should be brought before the authorities to justify that and if they feel he wasn’t 100% , withhold a portion of his purse. He’s such a thick cunt he doesn’t see this.
He is such a desperate wanker. He’s also posted on Social media “PROOF” that it was a long count in the 12th. So there’s a stopwatch showing from the moment Fury hit the canvas, and stops at 10 seconds dead, when Fury is nearly up.
However , the prick forgets that the count doesn’t start till he’s in an neutral corner! So when he’s standing over Fury and doing his funny walk , the ref doesn’t start the count. The guy has shown himself to be a complete fucking dullard.

I agree he is a dullard but that is not how the count works. The referee instructs the fighter to go to the corner and picks the time up from the time keeper. If it takes him 4 seconds to get Deontay to the corner he starts his at 5 etcetera. But....if he instructs Deontay to his corner, Deontay goes and comes back out of the corner interrupting his count then the count stops.

Thanks for putting me right on the count thing. Now, bearing in mind he broke his arm , do you still believe that his team’s offers to AJ at the time were genuine?
