Comments Thread For: Frank Warren: I thought Fury was in control of the fight

[joe strong]

I was cheering for Fury but I had it Usyk 116-112. 3-3 after 6 rounds. Fury had a solid 5th round but after that I only gave him one more round.

Weakest heavyweight era of all time. A cruiser weight comes up and wipes out the whole division. None of these guys belong in the heavyweight great of any era except for the little man, Usyk. Wilder, Fury, Joshua all overpaid average boxers who all got exposed as soon as they fought somebody good.

Exposed? Maybe Usyk is just that good?

Get out of here with that nonsense..did Fury’s career look destroyed when he wiped out Chisora and Whyte, after dominating Wilder twice? This was the best version of Fury we saw in these two fights with Usyk, alongside the 2nd Wilder fight.

Dumbass ignorant ass you don’t understand the human element. Those shots that Fury and Wilder hit each other with took a lot out of each other. They both look awful in every fight after that. Nothing has changed and it showed yesterday evening.

Sure you did Frank...sure you did.

Its quite a good era tbh i was happy with it and the talent was deep its just a boxer like Usyk only comes around every so often

Santa and his elf’s have a last minute urgent request for seeing eye dogs for Warren, Fury, Arum, Spencer Brown, and delusional Brits. Santa, for Fury bring a chihuahua as he needs a lesson in humility and would look great getting around with Gypsy his new beech.

Fury is no longer what he used to be. First five rounds he was fighting to win and the last 7 rounds he was fighting (in spurts) to survive. By round eleven he had trouble keeping his hands up. There was no mustard on his punches in later rounds. He can no longer fight the way he way fighting Deontay Wilder in the second and third fights.

As for Frank - what do we expect him to say? My fighter was beaten easier and more convincingly today than in the first fight?

I think Fury is actually fighting a very good boxer for change. Forced to finally by by the pay day.

When did Fury last beat someone who could box well?? Wilder is a brawler, Whyte is an ok boxer but is slow. Wallin is the last guy he fought who could box properly well and Fury struggled with him.

Yes but this one I just scored a draw. This is a carbon copy of the Holmes vs Spinks fights both close Spinks edged first and Holmes the second. Or like Canelo vs triple G first one had G second one draw. Obviously Canelo won 3rd fight

You basically gave Fury 8 or 9 rounds (difference of 3 - 5 points). That means giving Fury all the close rounds and then even some of Usyk's cleaner rounds. Your score is pretty much impossible.

I don't think anyone paid much attention to Fury or Wilder when they spoke in interviews after their fights/wars. They gave each other a lot of respect. That was their way of saying that their clashes took a lot of them. Some fights leave boxers a shell of themselves. The Fury/Wilder series did that to both fighters.

Didn't score the fight, gonna rewatch it but for now I felt it was close like the last one.

I am surprised to hear people still insist that the first fight was close. I thought it was a comprehensive, dominant win for Usyk. I cannot imagine how anybody could have scored more than 3 or 4 rds for Tyson, who also suffered a 10-8 rd in the 8th. Yesterday‘s fight was less dramatic, but also harder to score. Even so, there was a similar pattern of Usyk pressing effectively and landing the cleaner shots (and more of them) throughout. I again scored it wide for Usyk but But I can understand this time how Fury fans might’ve scored more rounds for him. Fury fought better and was more effective overall than he was in the first fight, but I still feel that he came up second in most of those rounds. To be honest, I thought 116 112 was generous, if anything. I tended to agree with the AI score of 118-112.
