It was an action filled fight with two warriors being just offense minded. There were numerous knock downs. I feared for Wilder's life his beat down was so severe.
Fury is a beast and the best in the world.

Lol!
Yes, Wilder is a victim of depending on his strong right hand. He has reached a level of fighter where that no longer works.
Yeah, Fury is the king of boxing right now and may be the GOAT, although I'd like to see him in more championship fights and win them all before I call him better than Klitschko.
Absolutely demolished the overrated Wilder who was a darling of the US media where many actually STILL thought after that second fight that Wilder was better. Glad they got put in their place. Again.

The real question is how fast would Tyson Fury's splits be in the same event?
I'll go with:
5K 24:52
10K 27:18
15K 33:19
20K 42:17
25K 1:06:09
30K DNF
Remember back when a heavyweight championship bout was a major tv and cultural event?? Ali, Mike Tyson, Holyfield. and all the others. But now that the champ is a white guy who opposes gay marriage, coverage is basically zero.

Right. Coverage started going to near zero almost two decades ago because of the Klitsckos dominance. White guys, from former USSR, can't push lefty agenda=bad
Wilder will turn 36 later this month and it's been 3 years since their first fight. He looked tired from early on and his punching wasn't as quick as it has been in the past The HW division needs some new blood.

It's so hard being a white guy who opposes gay marriage! Can those millions of people who are suffering be protected as a persecuted group?

It's just hard being a white guy in general.

Well he has suffered a little, coming close to being cancelled at one point and forever more ignored by the BBC for their Sportsperson of the year award. Likely cost him a few million in sponsorship deals and the rest
For just expressing his Christian views.
And the truth is a lot of Brits, especially white middle-class liberals, regard him as a 'gypsy chav'. Take the regular poster 'Trollism' as an example of this kind of liberal racism.
The whole converted from track to marathon running thing is so boring. They find God, become self absorbed, wear oakleys, boring, boring, boring!!!!
Wilder wins maybe two early rounds then proceeds to eat sh*t for the next 9 . That doesn't make for a great fight and doesn't make him a warrior. It exposes him as a complete one trick pony with atrocious defence (actually calling it atrocious would mean there was at least some, albeit a very bad level of defence - he had zero defence other than using his head to block shots).
Wilder is an absolute joke of a boxer. He should take the money and never fight again.
Interesting to note -- Fury tested positive for nandrolone in 2015 and used the same uncastrated boar excuse as Houlihan.

Fury was 33. Age was not a significant factor.
Fury might be GOAT!
