Stop It, Tyson Fury Did Not Earn a Win Against Deontay Wilder

Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury drew their WBC Heavyweight Championship bout Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury drew their WBC Heavyweight Championship bout

Saturday night's heavyweight showdown between WBC champion Deontay Wilder and lineal champion Tyson Fury features a match-up between a monster puncher (Wilder), and his ability to close the show quickly and a slick tricky boxer (Fury) who's demonstrated on more than one occasion he can outwork and outperform whoever is across from him in the ring.

But in the 12th he lay motionless after a savage combination, barely making the count to see out the contest, which was scored 115-111 for Wilder, 114-112 for Fury and 113-113.

Tyson Fury sounds more upset with the draw scorecard than the one which gave Deontay Wilder the win.

.

Wilder, the more aggressive of the two fighters early on, quickly moved into an early lead.

A punch to the top of Fury's head shockingly put him down in the ninth, but he bounced up quickly. "I started overthrowing the right hand, and I just couldn't adjust". Yes, the boxing judges actually got a big fight right.

"I should have won the fight but I'm not going to complain". "I came out slow".

"Respect to Fury for sticking to his game plan and to Wilder for closing the gap with two huge knockdowns!"

Wilder responded with increasingly desperate flurries of big punches, very few of which found their mark.

The opening rounds were to Fury's liking. Fury seemed in control when Wilder landed his trademark, a howitzer of a right that landed on the side of Fury's head. At the end of the round, and following Wilder's usual late flurry, the two became entangled, Fury taking the chance to mock his man with severely odd tongue movements. But Fury went down again - and almost everybody thought it was for good.

On the undercard, Jarrett Hurd defended his WBA and IBF 154-pound belts with a fourth-round stoppage of Jason Welborn. And it was the third one who got it right.

The 10-8 round proved crucial in the final reckoning, though.
