Fury v Usyk is on.............!

[NoSavingByTheBell]

I gave Fury rounds 3 4 5 6 7 and 12 and I called the second round even. That's 114 points.

I gave usyk rounds one 8 9 10 11, that is also 114 points, A DRAW.

A draw it should have been. And nobody's talking about this. Why couldn't you syk finish Tyson when the bell rang for the 10th round? If he was so destroyed that he only had 60 seconds to recover, so why didn't u syk finished the job at the beginning of the 10th round? I guess he's not that good of a finisher like people think.

I did think usyk would come out and finish fury off in the tenth but this is fury and we know his powers of recovery.

Then again I also thought fury would impose himself on usyk from the outset so what do I know....

What did you round 1 and 2?

If you gave Usyk those rounds he wins because of the 10=8 round in 9

Well obviously you scored it wrong??

Just rewatched it and tried to be a touch more open minded to Fury. I made it 115-113 to Usyk. But I gave Fury the 12th and made the 2nd a 10-10 round. On another day , I could give both those rounds to Usyk.
That is as good as I can possibly get it for Fury. No way did he win (or draw) the fight.

[Mark TKO]

Totally agree with that score. I also could make a case for fury being ahead in the ninth till the last thirty seconds. So a three point swing. That's what it all came down to. I can see all arguments like you get with scoring.

Anyway the right man won and I don't think anyone
but fury has disagreed with that.

Finally able to do a proper watch and it was very much the entertaining ebb and flow scrap talked about. Big picture I ended up at 115-112 Usyk when all was said and done. Some random things that stuck out were how bothered Tyson was early on specifically with the 1st round shot to the nose. Not sure if/when a break occurred but it was clear it was a problem. Also how Usyk was corking the left and was his key punch from beginning to end. He almost turns the punch sideways like a chop and puts some stiff on it. Also surprised me how consciously Fury conceded ring space and tried/ was forced to ropes or corner. After six rounds I had it all even up with Fury coming to life and notching a straight run of 5,6,7 and having Usyk in a bad way with the whipping right upper to body. He was fluid and looked to be on his way. But the left of Usyk was ever present and had him taking a run of 8,9,10,11 with the ninth being a nightmare for Fury. He was rebounding off the ropes wobbled like a prime wwf wrestler and could have very well been counted more than once that round as ropes held him up. Initially the ref took a lot of stick but having a full look at the ruled KD, his hands were pretty tied in the instant. Had he called the fight the outrage would have been deafening in the aftermath. Not to say Fury wasn't concussed and out on his feet but if we give merit to the scale and magnitude of the match it would have been messy and taken from the ultimate moment. But also by ruling the KD he called off Usyk from a likely follow up and tko. Fury was bent and slumped and wide open. It's a very ambiguous rule, the ropes holding a fighter up and another case by case that a ref has to make in the split second. Going way back I guess this is why I see some cases for the standing 8 count still being used. But anyway. Thought Fury did well to steady and press back in the final round taking that one. All in all an outstanding contest and wherever you fall in fandom the mutual respect at end was long overdue. Have to admit I was convinced they would rob Usyk and while 1 judge tried looking at the fight on whole Usyk for me was a clear winner, though arguably tightly well contested. Judges got it right and sets up a rematch perfectly regardless of what happens with the ibf strap being vacated or even stripped. On aside and a random complaint I came away with...can we not have 1001 people rush the ring ffs. I don't think I've ever seen a ring THAT packed corner to corner in an immediate aftermath. In was bonkers ! and honestly took away just a bit from the center focus...literally...being on the two championship fighters who just went thru it. And I really need less of this Turki worship being honest. Having his own intro pre fight, post fight and ring center putting the t shirts of sanctioning bodies on Usyk and handing belts out. Wtf is that?! I get it the powerbroker $$ host and all but no ring should be that crowded and overshadowed. Again, it's about the fighters. Great fight!

They are saying Tyson broke his nose in the 7th round and was bothered by it.

Do not know if Usyk did have a broken jaw.
