These two guys now dont look that bad now. I thought this fight was done after they both got floored.
Fury looks a bit fresher, but Wilder has the haymaker punch.

Before the fight he said he was going to make sure Wilder retires after this fight

LOL. I was going to say the same thing. Wilder looks like he's going down, but Fury will bearhug him against the ropes giving the ref a chance to break them up and Wilder gets a few second breather.

Fury put all his savings into 9th round. This is silly.

Excellent fight. Best fight I've seen in a long time. Not that I watch boxing to begin with except some high profile heavyweight matches. But for what I've watched, it's a fantastic fight.

Gypsy King crowned. No need for match #4.
The way Fury plows his way in close neutralizes Wilder's hard sweeping punches. He needs room to launch those missiles. He doesn't seem to resort to uppercuts or close in body shots or anything else when Fury does his bearhug thing.

The guy might be too ripped for his own good.
His punching power is already sky high, he could probably drop some muscle and pounds and it would make no difference to his punching power. Shift it to cardio.
Tyson Fury is a gangly looking fuck who moves around in an awkward way. He's moving around fine even doing that fun skipping motion at the end of the fight when he should be totally gassed. It's like he can go skip rope.

Yeah but doing cardio fucking sucks

Not Fury’s best performance but he still is the vastly superior boxer. Wilder has an ego that prevents him from improving beyond being a big right hand. I like both of them, would have liked to see Wilder acknowledge the champ and give him the respect as the better man that night, I’m sure a bunch of excuses are incoming.
Yea, it depends on when he wakes up... R O F L

Wilder looked good in the first round doing all those stomach jabs.
Then again, I have no idea how effective that tactic could be long term, but he seemed to ditch it soon after. I dont know, maybe those kinds of punches would have zero effect on Fury anyway. But he seemed good in the early rounds jabbing.

when you train with weights or do high intensity workouts you're mainly just training your fast twitch muscles which use carbs for energy and burn really quick. cardio and endurance exercises help train and cultivate the slow twitch muscles and those muscles use a lot of fat and oxygen to burn energy and has probably been very useful for fury since you can store way more fat on your body than you can carbs which can be stored in your fast twitch muscles in the form of glycogen which burn quick while fat burns more slowly. if this was a three round fight wilder would've probably been fine training the way he did, but the longer the fight goes on cardio/slow-twitch muscles and fat as a source of fuel plays a more important role. for long fights i feel like some blubber on a fighter especially the big guys is a good sign haha.

Going to the body is a legitimate tactic. Problem with it is that Fury seems like a guy with two sets of lungs and as hard as those body jabs looked, they were extremely telegraphed. Same punch and direction each time. Fury would take 50% out of it by tensing for each body blow
Wilder looked more winded by the tactic than Fury did

Man, just incase anybody still doubts how hard Wilder hits. In his first knockdown on Fury, the punch before the knockdown was square in the middle of face and literally sent a huge ripple from his face down his entire body. It looks insane in slow motion.
Congrats to Fury. I've never rooted so much for a fighter in a boxing match before. Wilder really didn't help himself with the crazy accusations, I really think he's done himself a lot of harm with that and the lack of respect at the end of this fight.

fantastic fight, fury really is on another level.
Pretty disgusted with Wilder refusing the sportsmanship handshake acknowledgment bit etc at the end, but what do you expect when he made up so many accusations up and excuses the last fight.
I hope he retires after this beating, truth be told the way he acted out, firing Mark breland was just damn disgusting, i mean the guy was looking out for him.
I am sure we will hear a lot more bullshit from wilder the next few days about how the fight was stolen from him.
Fuck him, was chufted to bits when he hit the canvas, lights out.
Well done fury, watching boxers like him is really an art form.

That fight is going to be insane. They are both such talented boxers, it's really hard to call.
I'm really glad Fury is past Wilder now, but I can't deny they definitely produced some memorable bouts in their trilogy.

I don't know much about boxing but wouldn't Usyk be a severe underdog?
Deonte Wilder...... . ...6'7" @235lbs
Tyson Fury.................6'9" @275lbs
Oleksandr Usyk.........6'3" @220lbs
He's certainly a better natural boxer than Wilder but that reach and weight disadvantage seems massive.

yep totally agree, usyk is a very talented and skillful boxer, i think he would easily do wilder just like he did aj, but coming against fury who is basically a white Mohammad Ali , (yes he is that damn good,) he is going to come up short literally.

I’m amazed Fury wasn’t fatigued and shattered at the end of the match. One would think all that flubber would be a detriment and wear him down, but it actually allowed him to absorb those heavy hits due to the extra cushioning
