How long after the fight is it before they show a replay on Sky? I've not seen it yet, just read the reports.

Amazing fight, **** knows what they think they were watching though!

I don't think that was close to being the best version of Fury either, I do think that's everything Wilder has though.

Impressed by the power that Fury seems to have developed and his ability to get up from a knock down and switch back on is so impressive.

The US commentary was awful but that was a great watch.

Hard to see anyone in the heavyweight division beating Fury

Managed to find a copy of the fight with American comms.

I quite enjoyed Lennox 'ohhhhs' and 'ahhhhhs' every time a punch landed.

You're right. What a ****ing fight. Tyson 'Big Manned' Wilder to ****. Glorious stuff

Its believed Wilder didn't put in the hard yards again, very little running, rope or even bag work. He had chicken legs out there.
Sacking his coach didn't change a thing, the same mistakes in the second fight cost him again.
Fury was hit and miss in the first 5 rounds, but from 6 onwards bossed it.

He won't avoid Usyk but apart from a no belt Joshua fight I can't see where Fury goes to next ?

He put on 7lb from the last fight Fury put on 5lb

Apols

I meant Wilder piled on a couple of stone from when he was knocking cans out for fun.

He was 2 stone heavier than the first fight.

215 seemed to be his optimum weight

Wilder on the other hand piled on a couple of stone for this fight and it showed early.

I definitely think he would fight a different fight against AJ. I don't think it was vintage Fury last night. He was taking unnecessary risks by constantly walking down Wilder and abandoning his jab. When he started to judge the distance and got behind his jab he was better but all too often he was trying to take it to Wilder and got complacent.

Having said all of this, we have to remember he hasn't fought for 20 months so was bound to be rusty. I also don't think he was in great shape either (came in too heavy). He hadn't had a full training camp having had to to cut it short due to his new born child being in ICU.

Overall despite looking sluggish, he was able to grind it out and came out on top. I expect a much better performance and him to be in better condition in his next fight.

I agree he looked sluggish though I'm inclined to put that down to ring rust as opposed to being out of shape.

If you compare Wilder and Fury during the fight. Wilder was blowing out his arse from the 4th onwards. Fury on the other hand was trucking away without any obvious tiredness in the 11th. For a big lad he has remarkable stamina and conditioning.

4th round apart that was a sustained mauling and beating.

Wilder looked out on his feet very early on

That version of Fury is a world away from the Fury of the first fight.

He'd zero respect for Wilder. Ran straight through him.

I hope we see the feinting and dancing Fury back soon.

What a fight that was! 3-0 for me to Fury.

[Bender]

Joshua should retire because both Fury and Wilder would destroy him...And Fury is amazing total respect to the Champion

[labourRed]

Very impressive. The boxing, less so the singing.

Yup. Showed him no respect which let him get caught a few times.

Listening to Max Kellehman talking through the fight it was an even fight

Impressed with Fury’s power tonight
