I shoulda done a live thread.

Good fight, Wilder’s corner threw in the towel in round 7. Total domination by Fury.

If Fury fights Anthony Joshua next we’ll finally have an undisputed HW champ again.

he’s, fury, a very awkward fighter- but has great defense- and is fairly accurate, a wicked body punch- but one thing i noticed was a lot of his ‘highlight knockouts’ were against much shorter, thinner folks- so his weight and height work for him- his body shots were brutal- he doesn’t seem to have a lot of power punching to the head though- (Though he does connect just right sometimes)- If he could transfer that body shot power to head punching power- wow-

Does have a little bit of a weak chin though- but so far he snaps right back up- but that might not last long- hopefully it does- but when fighters begin ‘losing their chin’ they can’t get it back- Chuck Lidell was tough as nails for a long time- until he wasn’t- then it was over- his chin failed him unfortunately-

BTW- chuck lidell was on some show demonstrating the power of his punch against a slab of beef or pig or something- They measured his punch power- it was phenomenal- like more than a true boxer’s power- and fully capable of breaking bones- He was no joke-
