I have never seen people so adamant that a guy won a fight where he kissed the canvas twice and didn't knock the other guy down..



Wilder was flat outboxed in the first fight and the 12th round knockdown was just the excuse the judges needed to score it a draw.

If you see it any other way, you're delusional and don't know shite about how boxing is scored.

Knockdowns, though somewhat impressive are only good for one extra point a round in most cases, as in 10-8 to the person who got the knockdown. However, if the fighter who got knocked down was winning the round decisively, the judges can score the round 10-9, though it rarely happens like that.

That's just BS. You believe that a champ should drop his belts because a challenger touched him more? Fury never put him in danger or put him down. Also, there is nothing definitive about what happened. I have seen a bunch of different score cards and they were all different. Some even had Wilder winning.

I thought it was a draw. No one was clearly better and I'm not taking belts from a Champ that was never in danger and knocked down the other guy twice..
