I hope Fury wins! I think he’s great for the Gypsy/Travelling community. His wife seems lovely too.

Good luck lad!!

What do you mean? I’m not from U.K.

I mean those that are from the UK (not you) often slate it and slag it off and there’s no patriotic attitude. I don’t know of any countries that do this. As you’re not from the UK you wouldn’t know…. But it’s a thing!

Fury is an absolute twat saying Usyk won because of the war sympathy

Whoah whoah whoah

He's a fantastic representative of his community

RJnomore1 · 19/05/2024 00:44

Don’t get me wrong he’s no klitschko but…

It is totally a thing! In my case that wasn't it at all, I just dislike Fury.

EwwwwwwDavid · 19/05/2024 00:45

Community or not what he said was twatty

Ciderlout · 19/05/2024 00:45

RJnomore1 · 19/05/2024 00:43

Yes I do

How and why?

Well deserved for Usyk, shame Tyson didn't go down in the 9th when he was on the ropes.

RJnomore1 · 19/05/2024 00:46

I’m from uk. I’m not English. I find fury a total embarrassment

however tonight was about the better sportsperson not that. There was one winner.

alfagirl73 · 19/05/2024 00:46

I thought it was a damn good fight... they both gave it their all. Boxing is a tough sport, not just in terms of the contact, but it takes a lot of stamina and energy as well as tactics and skill. Respect to both of them!

RJnomore1 · 19/05/2024 00:49

I don’t get the clock there - perhaps wrongly but I thought the clock pauses during a count?

OhHelloMiss · 19/05/2024 00:52

Tyson was out of shape and yet again, embarrassing

The best man won

Loyii · 19/05/2024 00:53

Good match was hoping Usyk would win, so was happt with the result.

murasaki · 19/05/2024 00:53

It was a good fight. A lot less holding than in many heavyweight matches, both fought hard, and pretty clean.

RJnomore1 · 19/05/2024 00:54

Fight stats for those interested.

One winner..

Why? How do you know?

She's probably watched his documentaries.

I suggest you do too.

Ponoka7 · 19/05/2024 00:56

I think Fury lost points because of the low blows, so it was fairly equal. Tyson lacked focus. It will definitely be worth the £25 in October.

RJnomore1 · 19/05/2024 00:58

See all you boxing afficianados next week for Taylor caterall rematch?

TicketyBoo11 · 19/05/2024 01:00

I'm English, I'm very proud of my country, I think Fury is a complete wanker and I'm really glad Usyk won....I just wish he'd put Fury on his arse after all his showboating and pissing about.
And Fury's dad is a total embarrassment and should be locked away somewhere....

How can anyone want rapist Tyson to win?

Rapist?

This exactly . I couldn’t be happier about this result , I followed the fight on the BBC as I refuse to do PPV when Fury is fighting as I don’t want him getting any benefit from my money . Fury is an absolute disgrace with his comments after the fight , he is a total embarrassment.

AubreysMonkey · 19/05/2024 01:04

Rapist?

I think someone’s got confused…

i do not have any time for Tyson fury but I am unaware of any rape allegations, unlike convicted rapist Mike Tyson who think is due an exhibition fight shortly.

Ciderlout · 18/05/2024 23:27

Behave! It’s a bit of fun. He seems like a lovely fella with a lot of demons. His wife seems lovely too and he represents his community well

Edited

He's an arsehole to his wife by all accounts so not a lovely fella at all.
