    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.
