    O/T Usyk v Fury

    Fight just finished and what a rip off as Usyk retained his belts.

    ALL three judges scorecards were 116-112 in favour of Usyk, an absolute joke.

    The scorecard on Sky Sports showed Fury winning by one round.

    On TNT they had it 2-1 in favour of Fury. Not a classic fight but that was not a true reflection on the outcome.

    Terrible set of score cards but it is boxing and it is in Saudi, what do you expect. Such a corrupt sport and don?t ignore the politics of this as well.

    I thought the right man won. Fury had to convince the judges that he did enough to take the belts off Usyk and he didn?t. Had a good go though,

    Correct decision. Usyk totally dominated.

    Fury didn't help himself by taking his foot off the gas letting usyk finish several rounds stronger..
    I was also a bit surprised at the gap in the score cards though usyk deserved the win

    Admittedly I was a fair number of Maison du Biere's finest by the main event, but it was a pretty lacklustre showing from Fury. I've always believed you have to clearly win a belt from the champion, and there's no legitimate case for that. Technically pretty ordinary, didn't utilise his size advantage well, no consistent spells of throwing combinations, and generally outwitted.

    Many rounds were very tight because of the pace and activity, but I'd have struggled to see enough of them ever going to Fury.

    The judges were so wrong in the Dave Allen fight that paddy power are paying out on bets that had him to win.

    What did you expect. Dave Allen?s only got 7 and a half fingers so shouldn?t be boxing.

    One for the older ones 😄
