Fury vs Wilder III

[goatwack]

YT thumbnails tend to give the result away unfortunately, so you'll never have them titled 'Fury and Wilder exciting third fight highlights!'.

And if you do, your eyes will accidentally catch sight of the videos around it, which will often start with 'Fury wins 9th round KO', after which you start punching your ears for spoiling the result

Meh. Our Billy will text me to tell me that he won so much on the Tyson win then call me about it if I don't read it within 5 minutes. I'm fucked really

The fight is primetime for viewing in Aus. It makes for a great Sunday afternoon spectacle.

Sometimes I detest someone for no reason

Go Wilder. Please knockout Fury in 3 rounds so I can win $5k.

Reading the bbc live text, obsessed with whose won the round, as if wilder will ever connect with even half his punches

 

[mack341]

Wow fury ko'd now - get up Gipsy K!

 

[goatwack]

Jesus Christ this is a war

 

[mack341]

I'm like stevie wonder here

 

[mack341]

sounds like a mix of fights 1&2, wilder been better than last time but has hardly reinvented his style and tactics.

 

[goatwack]

That 4th round was outrageous

Both men gassed there on in, but Fury sort of ahead by dominating the ring

Credit to Wilder for hanging in there, and still capable of ending it with one punch

 

[goatwack]

My God what a knockout

What a fight

 

[mack341]

All over, GK champ still. Always good to go with best boxer, physique and stats less important, same with joshua his two losses were from being out boxed rather than power

 

[goatwack]

That was on a knife-edge almost throughout. Fury always vulnerable to more knockdowns, but started to regain his mojo as the rounds went on

Possibly the best bout in years. Fury's got immense heart to get up from near-defeat, Wilder I almost feel sorry for at this point. He really gave it his all when he should have been out in the 5th or 6th, easily

 

[mack341]

looking forward to watching it, until bt post it free though it will be grainy, badly zoomed in vids where you miss most of what's happening lol

That's the best heavyweight fight I've seen in 35 years. Simply amazing to watch.

Wow I can't wait to watch the highlights, according to most it was a great match so will have to see what all the fuss is about. So he did knock out the dosser like he said he would! Always believe in the gypsy king!

Feel a bit sorry for Wilder - he has one weapon, the crushing right and his objective is to land it at least once to have a chance of winning. He does so and each time Fury gets up and carries on regardless, psychologically must be destructive.

That didn't age very well!

 

[geordiecolin]

I managed to watch the recording of it without knowing the result first It has to be one of the best fights I have seen for a long time. I can understand Wilder finding it difficult to except defeat because you have to have a degree of arrogance in order to reach the top. I worry about the fact that Wilder's ears bleed during his fights.

Another long one but I love how Geordie gets his guests to open up

More comebacks from the brink of death than you on Bonanza.

 

[goatwack]

Whew, that was quite something. Thought I was alone in thinking it was fight of the decade; seems not!

Like I said, I admired Wilder's bravery in going toe-to-toe for half the fight despite being dead on his feet after his knockdown, and then still making a fist of it, unlike his capitulation in Fury-Wilder II.

The guy had spunk, grit, steely determination. Oh and hate. He really hates Fury, and I that's what kept him on his feet for half the fight.

That empathy soon dissipated upon hearing how Wilder was STILL ungracious in defeat. You'd think after three fights of whupass he'd find some humility to acknowledge Fury at least fought well......but nope, pride, ego & denial.

He'll probably cite "Leaves in the ring" for his next excuse now, the fool

All hail!

I like to see the boxers have that respectful embrace, commiserations etc...the pre fight stuff sometimes ruins it, but if fury had lost I'm sure he'd have shook his hand, bad losing doesn't go with boxing, it goes back to the gladiators forced to fight.

Spot on.
This is a great post fight interview

 

[goatwack]

Well, here it is. Under 24 hours and out come the excuses!

In fairness, I don't think it specifies when it happened, whether it be the first or 10th round, but ropey nonetheless.

I expect further embellishments to follow, once the fog clears and it dawns on the bum that he's lost to Fury 'three' times now
