ponce was my nikka...
Ponce had other intangibles that worked for him that Wilder lacks.
Ponce could actually win fukking rounds. nikka gave a young Broner all he could handle.
fury didnt do a whole lot either. but he had the good sense to throw that piece of shyt jab every now and then to give people something to score. people will score what they see. but if you let a guy beat you doing that, thats your fault, not anybody elses.
breh the audience in the theater i was watching in could see wilder's telegraphed punches lol
He didn't see everything otherwise he would have landed bigger shots to capitalize on all those wiffed power punches. He stayed competitive and peppered the man but at any point did Firy hurt that man?
Nah.
yeah of course he did...shyt fury hurt wilder in the final round AFTER fury absorbed and got up from that killshot and left hook from him
I can tell you arguing just to argue, so go ahead and cook.
Deontay Wilder: I Don't Know How Fury Got Up In the 12th Round
By Keith Idec
LOS ANGELES – Deontay Wilder couldn’t believe what happened before his very eyes.
The knockout artist was already celebrating, certain he had finished a stubborn Tyson Fury for good Saturday night at Staples Center. The unbeaten WBC heavyweight champion had hit Fury so hard with a right-left combination early in the 12th round, Wilder figured there was no way Fury should’ve been able to get to his feet before referee Jack Reiss counted to 10.
Somehow, the resilient Brit went from flat on his back, seemingly out cold, to upright and ready to fight back by the time Reiss reached the count of 9½. Fury’s ability to then hit Wilder with impactful punches kept Wilder (40-0-1, 39 KOs) from finishing what he had started.

Instead of becoming another one of Wilder’s knockout victims, the 30-year-old Fury (27-0-1, 19 KOs) produced one of the most memorable moments in heavyweight history. By finishing their fight on his feet, the Manchester native battled Wilder to a split draw and put himself in position to land what would be a lucrative immediate rematch.
The 33-year-old Wilder expressed dismay during the post-fight press conference over Fury’s ability to survive that crushing combination.
“I don’t know how he got up,” Wilder said.
Without any rational explanation for Fury’s astounding recuperation, the Tuscaloosa, Alabama, native suggested divine intervention enabled Fury to get up.
“I really thought I had him out of there,” Wilder said, “because I hit him with the right hand and followed with the left hook. And everyone knows I’ve got heavy hands and I hit hard. And I literally seen this man’s eyes rolling in the back of his head. And I seen Jack on the ground, checking him, and I said, ‘It’s over.’
“You know, only God knows how he got back up. But like I said, I had fun, though. I don’t make no excuses. I enjoy the moment and go back to my family. That’s the main thing about it. You know, enjoying the moment, displaying my talent across the world that God blessed me with. And then, going back to my family, man. That’s my happiest.”
Wilder wasn’t happy that only one judge, California’s Alejandro Rochin, scored their fight for him (115-111). Canadian judge Robert Tapper had Fury in front following 12 rounds (114-112).
The lone British judge, Phil Edwards, scored their compelling, competitive clash a draw (113-113).
I think if Wilder would have landed that right hand on the chin and not the side of the face/head, Fury prolly wouldn't have gotten up. The clean up left hook would have been the icing on the cake.

maybe if wilder came in at his natural weight of 240ish that would've been a ko but again fury was busier More accurate and was the better boxer
wilder's power saved him
wilder's power saved him
thats a thing..why the fukk is wilder coming in so light for a heavy for a cat his height? esp against tyson fury...i mean he can be effective being around 220-225
When was Wilder ever fighting in the 240lbs? 212 was probably too light but high teens-220s is where he should be, he doesn't carry around a lot of extra weight.
but a wilder positive...you really can't allow this motherfukker to hit you with any punch from his right hand..its ridiculous how much his wiry motherfukker hits and nearly kills nikkas as big as him or bigger with it
Amor fati

I like Fury but he's being disingenuous post fight two days after the fight talking about how it was the worse decision and how everybody knows who won. He needs to drop that pity party shyt and blame himself for getting dropped twice and come up with a better way to beat Wilder next rematch. Oh and fukk Ben Davison's soar losing bytch ass. Both Wilder and Fury did their thing in the ring. I wanna see Fury get his belts back from AJ.
