How did you score Fury-Usyk? 🤔👇
Usyk 9 - 3
Usyk 1-3
Fury 4-6
7 was a swing , had it 10-10
8-11 were all Usyk
I had 12 Usyk but another swing, don’t mind it going to Fury but it was a masterclass by Usyk. 117-111 for me, or 116-112 being kind. Still an enthralling fight, totally absorbing, but a career best from Usyk.
I had it 115-112 for Usyk, and that is giving the swing rounds to Fury
Overall score 115-113 -Usyk,
Round 1- Usyk,
Round 2&3- Fury,
Round 4 - Usyk
Round 5-&6 - Fury
Round 7-11- Usyk (Round 8 :10-8 with the standing count)
Round 12- Fury
1-2-8-9(2pts.)10-11-12 -Usyk
3-4-5-6-7 Fury
The rds. Fury won where competitive but Fury won them .After the 8th Usyk made the fight, knocked Fury down and was fairly dominant hurting Fury a number of times .cant see how Fury says he won, he was totally outclassed .
Fair play George called it right all week!
He got nothing right.. one judge had it fury.. as Eddie hearn sean one scumbag judge had usyk winning all 7 rnds when fury was absolutely outclassing him.. disgusting..fury was making it look fkn easy..DID U NOT SEE FURY LAUGHING. HE SAID IT WSS EASY..USYK WAS SCARED AND LOOKS AVERAGE UNTIK FURY GOT COCKY
George is the best 👊
Knows fury a fraud
How is Fury a fraud ? You turn coat @@Handlethetruth666
Talksport having an aneurysm right now
Ref, comms, judges were all on Furys side and Usyk still got it done.
Hes an ALL TIME GREAT
See how quiet they went when a usyk had him all over the shop.
How were the judges on Fury’s side when 2 of them had it for Usyk !! Stupid comment.
@m9oxo because Usyk easily won 8 rounds and giving Fury any more than 5 takes great bias. The one judge who has it for Fury gave him round 11 FFS
That’s why there are judges, just because you don’t agree doesn’t make you right. And you said ‘the judges’ which means all the judges were on Fury’s side, now you’ve changed it to one judge was on Fury’s side ! Make your mind up.
@@RemyMacoh, was there a knockdown in R 11 too? I must’ve missed that.
Groves always talks sense
No he doesn't.. fury made it easy until he got cocky
@@Lightworker-ye4nvCopium. Lol
@@Lightworker-ye4nvSilly Billy 🙃
@@Lightworker-ye4nv Casual.
@@Lightworker-ye4nv 😆 Delusion is running wild among Furyettes today 😳
Fury NEVER wanted this fight... We now see why
he was the rabbit for two years
So true
You’re right
Correct. Could you imagine if he took it 2 years ago, Usyk would have beat more of the piss out of him and Fury knows it.
He’s never wanted the AJ fight either
- usyk is pound for pound number 1 (in my opinion) to me he is the DEFINITION of p4p. fury weighed 262lbs(118.8kgs) and usyk weighed 223lbs(101.2kgs). that's a difference of 39lbs(17.6kgs).
- Uysk vs Joshua 2, the difference in weight was 23lbs(10.4kgs)
by definition he is p4p KING!
Usyk was just about to send fury to another realm but the ref pulled him off tho
The ropes held him up the referee was correct in giving him the standing 8 count that’s the rules of boxing.
Yes ref should never have pulled Usyk off! In a REAL fight it would have all been over as fury would have been unconscious on the floor. End of
@@Acconda
The ref abided by the rules of boxing.
When the ropes stop a fighter from going down he has to administer a count, that’s what he did.
@@ArchieFatcackie nearly every tko has been someone getting battered on the ropes and the ref stops it
didnt the ref save usyk when daniel dubois KO him with a body shot.
Round 9
Ref- “how many fingers am I holding up?”
Fury- “Thursday”
Ref - "How many fingers am I holding up?"
Fury - "Happy New Year"
@@whybother987youve basically tried to out do the original comment and it wasnt funny.
I didn't try to out do anything, I just quoted the man himself. But I guess you didn't listen to Fury's post fight speech where he was wishing Happy New Year to all of us.
@@whybother987i did. You used the original posts patter sadsack
Usyk was a cut above Fury
I gave Usyk the first three rounds as well; unsure what other people were seeing. Then he won everything after the ninth quite unquestionably. I also thought he should have won by TKO in the ninth; Fury was out on his feet: not suspended by the ropes; a man that size would have fallen through the ropes if his legs gave out entirely. Rubbish referee; two of those judges just as bad. But, the right man got the decision in the end.
What were you watching? Seriously how could you score the first round to Usyk, for the record I had him winning it just beggars belief someone could score rd1 to Usyk he landed 2 punches
@@Irishesbox11 Groves, Froch, Mannix, even Parker, et al, all agree with me. 🤷 Usyk was the governor in the first three rounds; not much was happening, but on ring generalship and activity alone: it was all Usyk; Usyk was setting the pace, putting the pressure on, controlling the centre of the ring, on the front-foot, forcing Fury back.
@@Irishesbox11check compubox numbers kiddo, they’re up online
@@Irishesbox11mate, I thought he clearly won the first round, couldn’t miss with his rear hand to fury’s body.
@@Irishesbox11I also had Usyk winning the first 3!
Fury 6ft9 and was back pedaling all night from smaller man haha
Is he 6/9 again now ,make your mind up.
@@sirbaconbutties7071well whatever height he is he’s bigger than Usyk and Usyk was magnificent.
By back pedalling you mean jabbing moving and boxing his head off for a few rounds. He took his foot off the gas but Usyk pressure got to him
There’s no fun when the rabbit has the gun congratulations boxing been rescued from a cruise weight. It’s a beautiful morning.
I knew fury lost from the beginning when he could not get in his head
@@Yiealo6372jd"Boxing his head off"....Really?
I enjoy Georges views on boxing and in particular this fight...he doesn't seem bias at all
Out of all the pundits I only heard groves and bellew predict a Usyk win. 👏
Yeah, all the pundits said a big good man always beats a good small man....
@RoadsideGee
But, Bellew is the only pundit that actually fought Usyk. The rest of them are just pundits.
Teddy atlas and to an to an extent froch also pendedin usyk's direction.
On Sky sports, 3 out of 4 pundits picked Usyk b4 the start, only Nelson picked Fury and he has never got a prediction right in the last 10 years.
OMG he must BE FURIOUS that the ref gave such leeway to Fury while in Froch I it was waved off without even a real buckle of the knees!
And groves dominated that first fight easily over slow Carl. One of the most corrupt stoppages ever in boxing history
@@user-tm5uw3vh1h exactly. He was on the receiving end. He knows what Usyk faced
yes, Fury always gets the ref on his side - Wilder 1, Wallin, Usyk. Ref rules in his favor
This is a professional man who tells the truth
the round 9 moment is what stoped the robbery happening
Just me or was Fury trying to blame his corner for not urging him to go for a KO last couple of rounds?
Just you by the looks of it. Everyone ignoring your comment so i thought id throw you a bone
I don't think people understand boxing rules. If a fighter is only being held up by the ropes, it's essentially a knockdown therefore a count was justified.
casuals
You don't know what you are talking about. That was a TKO
@@Black-es4uk read the rules
Hatefull fat virgins.
Any other fighter out on their feet gets the fight stopped there and you can’t say nothing, he did the salsa, the tango and the foxtrot in that ring from one rope to another he didn’t throw a punch he was gone.
Usyk won by 2 rounds for me. However, all the rounds were tough to judge except for the 9th when fury got rocked.
That’s a reasonable scorecard, IMO
Maybe i was too into the moment but I had a draw coming into the end. Just because I had Fury winning 2-6 but I must have been wrong, before Usyk got him, but again I was probably wrong haha
I would agree
He got kOd
Rocked to a KO. Ref could have stopped it, but the magnitude of the fight probably had an influence.
George called it before the fight.
To be fair to George he called it weeks ago
St george is a class act ....glad his life is good after boxing
Yes super nice guy that commentates exceptional well , not all can , too many are bitter and jealous of other boxers and bring personal emotions to the debate which George avoids , intelligent man .
The ref was bad, but at one stage he looked like he was about to stop it as Fury looked like he was gona fall like a big cut down tree...
George got the prediction right all the way
Let’s give George his dues he said for a long time Usyk beats Fury and people really slated him . George is great knowledge and great pundit
Really enjoyed it too, didn’t let anyone down….. Usyk is just a phenomenon
George called it.
George is great to listen to.
Yes George we need you to make an appearance at talksport next week.
Groves called it right. Even Bellew called it. 😂
When the REF stepped in to stop the fight in Rd 9, in any other fight the fight is over. On the other hand if he allowed the fight to go on and Uysk still didn't put FURY on the mat, than UYsk may not have gotten a 10-8 rd. So REF's poor judgement may actually may have been erased.
Fury was out bro couldn't even defend himself that's why the ref jumped in
@@Bronzed-adonis Yes, the fight should have been stopped at that point.
Usyk won 8 rounds clearly. Cant believe anyone is saying it was close
He only won by 1 point how's that not close to u because it was a really close fight
I had Usyk winning by 4 rounds. A very good fight but the better boxer won. Simples.
@@CuriousGamer022It was only close until Usyk turned the tide in the 7th. I had it 8-4 plus a knock down.
Not really close at all!
@@Anwar157 Should have been a TKO honestly, man was going if the ref didn't jump in.
Had that been Groves in there, the ref certainly would’ve stopped it. But Fury actually has decent powers of recovery.
Today is a beautiful day for the sport of boxing. Congratulations to Alexander the great.
Good man George
The Fury vs. Usyk fight was a thrilling, back-and-forth battle.
Usyk shone in the opening rounds, showcasing his skill and leaving the rounds close enough for either fighter to claim.
But then came the middle rounds, where Fury truly came alive. With perfect distance, range, and movement, he dominated the ring, outboxing Usyk and making it seem like a knockout was within his grasp if he had just pushed harder.
But then, the 8th round arrived, and something changed. Fury, inexplicably, seemed to step back, taking two rounds off and nearly getting knocked out in the 9th. It was baffling-why didn't he continue with the strategy that had worked so well? Why didn't he keep Usyk at a distance, hit, and move with the same intensity?
The urgency from Fury and his corner was missing when it mattered most. This lack of pressure allowed Usyk to seize the moment, turning the tide in the latter rounds. In those final moments, Usyk capitalized on Fury's hesitation, securing the victory that slipped through Fury's fingers.
Good man. One of the few Englishmen that predicted the outcome honestly and was not biased in favour of Fury, who should have been stopped by Usyk but ref saved him.
One of the few? Most Englishmen predicted Usyk would win. And most wanted him to win.
Why didn’t you mention the excuse in his interview. Tyson said “they sided with guy who’s country’s at war” 🙈 Give AJ stick when he got carried away after losing to Usyk, but too scared to speak about this
Wasn't said in the ring on microphone to crowd surely u can see the difference
@@AaronOne-ch6op it was bro 🙈
I feel for you George, when you fought Carl Froch the ref jumped in and gave you no chance to see if you were ok yet this ref allowed Fury to roll about the ring obviously unable to defend himself.
Nah didn't need stopping he gave him count good reffing..you needed that ref in your froch 1 fight standing count
yeah, groves knows all too well how this works 2:48
George groves wishes he had that ref in Froch Groves 1 😆
Groves never flip flopped....he knew Usyk would win
Fury throws a wild haymaker. Usyk effortlessly catches it, then pulls a single red string from the glove. The entire stadium lights go out. When they flicker back on, Usyk is gone. A note on the canvas reads, "Thanks for playing, Gypsy King. You almost had me there." 🤣🤣🤣
Groves complained when Howard Foster jumped in stopped Froch 1 fight though? It was practically the same situation
George looks like he’s going door to door selling solar panels
thanks G....ref should have stopped
Not sure why people are saying that the ref saved Fury, if he was just following the rules?
Considering how this man was unfairly stopped you can’t blame his opinion
Groves needs to be doing an interview wiv dat little lady behind his right shoulder
Either way the right man win.
seems like it was a good fight which was judged fairly.. good job to the sauds
Didn't know Caleb was a boxing fan
Fury had a 2 round spell that was it
Usyk was bit better for sure
Weak Heavyweight division, if any of you guys seriously seriously think that Usyk would beat Lennox Lewis then you’s are absolutely mad!!! The reason the heavyweight division is entertaining is because they are all on par, Joshua was winning ‘if i remember rightly’ on 2 judges scorecards till the 9th against Usyk seconf fight, there was 1 round in it between Fury and Usyk, listen Usyk is brilliant but he would never ‘in my opinion’ have dealt with Lewis but i must admit the pressure he puts on is relentless. He fights at heavyweight like he’s still at cruiserweight man. An exceptional boxer.
Same thing I said. Just shows what a weak division HW currently is. you can never let a cruiserweight come in or even contemplate coming in
Ah lads 😂😂😂
Like the shorter holyfield did?
@@meanontoistexactly, until he fought Lennox Lewis!!!
Usyk - floated like a butterfly and stung like a bee.
In all the interviews I’ve seen post-fight, not one person has said Tyson Fury won it - so how on Earth has one Judge given jt 114-113???
Show boating is OK when on the way to a victory but not when you are on the back foot and frightened
Word on the street is this guy likes a bit of a push and a pull. A pull-a-baaart.
First 3 uysk. Second 3 fury .3/3 after 6 . Momentum was fury but Uysk adapted from there on which was crazy . Mans a genius as is fury. Im the biggest fury fan ever but had Uysk by 4 if im been honest
Its just as well that Howard Foster was not the ref.
In the 9th the ref should either have stopped it or let Usyk finish Fury himself.
First 3 Usyk, next 4 Fury, next 4 Usyk, last round even. That's the only way anyone who knows about boxing should score it. The 20 count helped Fury survive the 9th.
Said weeks ago that Usyk would edge a win,but never thought he would actually rattle fury like he did in the later rounds,fury said he was enjoying it in there,but we all knew and saw that he was being kept on his toes and was more than likely out of his comfort zone,the ropes and ref saved him from a TKO and his comments about the war were bitter to hear.
I haven't seen full fight, I'm reading comments saying most people saw it 7 rounds to 5 for usyk, but any highlights I've managed to find you would think fury clearly won apart from round 9,does anyone know where i can find full fight or at least unbiased uncut highlights
pro interview.
Fury could not defend himself so the Queensbury rules state it should have been stopped. Ref was a disgrace!!!
There is no need for the referee to cheat, just because there’s a lot of money if he wasn’t going to stop the fight. Why did he jump in and that fury, recover
George speaking facts
Groves was the first pundit a year ago to say usyk would win. It was a fantastic fight i had usyk winning by two rounds.
The ref "could" have stopped it and thank goodness it did not happen like it does in wanky Uk fights where the ref is just waiting to call off fights. The ref actually followed what is in the rule books and gave a standing 8 count due to Fury being held up by the ropes.
Remember Simon Jordan acting like Groves had no clue on boxing predicting Usyk to win 😂
Just realised who Groves reminds me of....
Calab 🚜 😂
Love groves ,,,always level headed and says it as it is
Fury beat off a "middleweight sausage"
Groves knows hes boxing and alawys talks sense.
There were no fireworks or confetti for our New Undisputed Champion of the World Oleksandra USYK 🔥🔥🔥 In your face all you discombobulated haters🙌🏾🎉🙌🏾
yup first 3 usyk then from 8 til 12 he pretty much dominated the whole fight and huge round 9 so yeah tyson was too busy thinking about hate speech after the fight
Called it from the beginning didn't he ol george stuck to his guns
Groves keeps looking over his shoulder in case Big John Fury the fight man comes over and headbutts him. After the fight Big John Fury the fighting man was taken to hospital with 25 cuts to his forehead.
All the crap online about Usyk winning easy. It was a very close fight. Fury battered Usyk for long periods in that bout. Fair play to both men.
Usyk won at least 6 rounds (2 or 3 others being either way) plus the knock down in Round 9, that means realistically no one could score it as a loss for him. Draw or close win for Usyk is undeniable.
Why didnt tyson get up and 😂 i wanna go home .lol😂
Does anyone else look back and think Usyk was a clear winner? Thought it close at first watch but there's no way Fury could have gotten the nod.
He could have but decided to step in and give fury time to recover
Is George on his way to his GCSE exams with that rucksack ?
Canelo not in the same league as Usyk.....
After Fury’s nose popped, he never won another round, in my opinion. Up until then, I’d say it was close, but Fury was slightly ahead. Once the nose went, Usyk all the way. I don’t know how one judge gave that to Fury?? No way! I love Fury though. I’m looking forward to the rematch. Possibly October?
@kvp4862
I'm convinced that any rematch will end up worse for Fury. Usyk now knows the best way to flght this beast of burden and Fury will be knocked out for real. Fury would only show up for a rematch because of the money.
@@FlaThunderstorm - I agree with you 100%!
I don’t mind Fury doing that, to be honest.
He’s been good for the sport, he’s dad is a clown, but I like Tyson. I don’t mind him having one more pay day.
But you’re spot on!
Usyk has the measure of ALL the heavyweights.
He’s a nice guy too. I respect him immensely.
Stay safe mate!
👍
Fury was out on his feet the ropes held him up. Had Fury dropped to the canvas, he wouldn't have got up. On top it didn't help that the ref saved Fury from getting KNOCKED OUT! He lost to a rabbit, sausage and met the first man born out of his mother to defeat him. HUMBLED AT LAST! Usyk don't need to prove anything anymore.
George said because i told him
Fury should have been stopped in the 9th round by the ref.
Super pleased Usyk got the W, I'd bet on a late stoppage so shame the ref didn't stop it.
Fair play to Fury though. He was much better than I thought, I thought he was washed, but his stock has also risen despite the result imo.
Fury has avoided this fight for as long as he could. Made some more cash then had to take it.. one big more pay day vs AJ for him but at least we know who is the best.
He should have stopped it OR let Usyk continue to punch. He did neither !!! He just helped Tyson and gave him a breather. Disgraceful ref..
@BCFC1875Cruzeiro
The ref also never warned Fury for grabbing on to the top rope a few times and also from grabbing on to Usyk many times.
Is fury really going to want a rematch?mmmmm not with those tactics,plus keep john fury out of the corner.
Had it same as George with Uysk winning first 3 - did think altho fury dominated the next few rounds he looked a little tired so felt Uysk would get back into it and win later rounds and he feet close - but way he almost finished him I had it a clear victory 116-111 but couple were close which could’ve gone fury way but still been 114-113 Uysk unless being totally bias in fury favour
Well he didn't Ukraine was always going to be awarded an extra point somehow
It definitely should have been stopped. If the ring ropes weren't there Tyson would have been out of the arena. And he was taking real punishment. You people that say the Ukrainian cannot punch hard tell that to Tyson
It’s not about how hard Usyk punches, it’s how fatigued the opponent is. Fury took Usyk shots with no issue until the later rounds. Tyson did brilliantly to go the distance as Usyk work rate and engine is the major advantage.
I dont think it should have been stopped, if the ropes keep u up its a standing 8 count. But the ref was fumbling around before that
Talking crap, fury wasn’t down or out was he? No he wasn’t, hurt yes, but not incapable of fighting back
Fury was more punch drunk and taking more punishment than groves in the froch groves 1 stoppage. Should of been stopped realy.
