Tyson Fury/ McDermott fight

[porkypara]

I disagree totaally mate, Jim Watt couldnt get his tongue any further up Furys bumhole, look at the stats Mcdermott landed more shots better percentage the harder/cleaner shots, David Haye had him winning by 4 rounds who was ringside, the guys in the studio had him winning the fight. I dont take any notice of Jim Watt he is a nob jockey, i watch the fight and it was a robbery plain and simple imo. Also Fury's team told him he needs a ko in the final round they new he was behind well everyone else except the ref.

Jim Watt still had him losing though and Sky are now Haye's paymasters.

My main point is really about refs scoring; and it really is an impossible job. If someone throws twice as many punches, even if they aren't all clean then if you'e in the middle trying to ref the fight (and it was a busy night due to all the clinching etc.) it's got to have an impression on you.

As I said I wasn't keeping score, although I know which rounds I as disagreeing with Watt. Mcdermott was certainly leading going with two rounds to go and Fury won those last two.

It was a lot closer than people are making out.

I agree with what you said about the Sky commentary team.They were anti Fury IMO.
Thats not to say that I thought that Tyson won it but it was a lot closer than Jim Watt would have had you think.

Robbery.

I could not believe the result. I was there and we all had Mcdermott well ahead with cleaner work and way more effective aggression.

As Larry Olubamiwo's close friends we were all discussing where Fury is weak and easily exploitable

* Jabs - Mcdermott was outjabbing him for god sake
* Straight Right - Alllll dayyyy lonnng...Fury is a sucker for them
* Agression - He does not like being backed up and doesn't deal with it too well, moving back towards the ropes in straight lines.
* Flinching - When he gets hit he LOOKS AWAY!! What the hell?? Big left hook that he doesn't see...over!


I told Larry that he should push for a fight with him asap for the following reasons :-

Straight Right Power - If he lands an eighth of the straight rights that John landed on Fury last night, it's all she wrote and we saw last night...he eats right hands like they're going out of fashion.

Aggression - He is way more aggressive than Mcdermott is and would not give Fury the breathing space when he has him hurt.

Larry needs to work on his jab a little more and that is it...Fury is his bitch.
