Anyone see this fight?
It was a pretty good fight from the outset...
Lots of heavy hits... and at one point, it looked like both the challenger and the champ were close to getting knocked out early on... Tyson Fury was knocked down twice in a single round (cant remember which specific round) and literally looked like he was hurt... Wilder just couldnt finish the big man off though...
Towards the end of the fight you could tell that Wilder was spent... fight should probably been stopped a little sooner than it was imo... but the last time he hit the deck in the 10th or 11th, you knew it was over...
Fury is such a big dude... and he plays a great game because of his stature, he can just put his weight on his opponent... and i really hadnt noticed before he has a pretty good inside game... ripped Wilder with some serious uppercuts from that close in fighting stance... some real monster shots...
All in all it was a great fight...
