Fury vs. Wilder III

[SilverEagle]

Boxing is ghey and wtf did I just watch? Ref too happy to be a star. Who won? That Monty had a half a dozen posts on the subject should be a clue as to what a waste that was. HAHAHA!

You obviously don’t know what the hell you are talking about. That was one of the all time great Heavyweight Championship fights.

oh.

Are you in your mid 30's by, chance?

Nope. 40’s

Oh shit I am old. All time great that doesn't have Ali or Tyson (as a last name, yo) is lost on me. But then again I am now an MMA fan and bossy refs breaking up a hug fest is foreign to me.

That ref was bullshit. He should’ve let them punch it out but he kept breaking it up. He was helping Wilder big time by doing so.

welcome to boxing

that is what the ref is supposed to do

and most refs would have broken it up more than he did

he did a great job of staying out of the way and letting them fight it out

doesn't get much better than that when it comes to reffing boxing

just goes to show what a thankless job it is

when you do that well and still get shit on

I don't remember any Ali or Tyson fights which had 5 knockdowns.

the Thrilla in Manilla is still the best heavyweight fight of all time

knockdowns aren't everything

competitiveness and durability matter

as good as Wilder-Fury III was

it was obvious Fury was going to win the entire time

and neither guy went through the hell that Ali and Frazier did in Ali-Frazier III

The bulk of Tyson fights had only one knockdown

Exactly.
These two guys slugged it out for 11 rounds. No one sided contest, no rope a dope snoozefest for most of the fight, just standing toe to toe trading punches until one of them couldn't get up again.

was fairly one sided

but Wilder had his moments

especially in the fourth

still a classic
