Well i watched the fight and seen a result i never thought i would see ,, personally i said Tyson would get stopped , and i'm glad i was wrong ,, was it a steller terrific fight , no way but he done what he had to do, and won thats the main thing ,, Good luck to Tyson and the whole team , i hope he brings us a few good nights of boxing and i think he will , simply because we all can see, that he is there to be beat , question is who is going to do it .
One thing i think Tyson deserves BIG ALLOCADES FOR is , his loyalty to Mick .. well done Tyson Fury .

Re: Glad to be wrong
I seem to be the only one that enjoyed the fight it wasn't a classic but interesting,did wlad have a bad night or did fury make him look bad a bit of both I think but tyson fought a great fight stylistically not standing in front of wlad like pulev did .well done fury .

Re: Glad to be wrong
Yeah I agree, I'm still in shock this morning, couldn't believe it last night. At about the 4th or 5th rd I turned to the lad who was sat next to me and said " I can't believe this he's actually gonna win this" and he said " I know it's unreal". One of the biggest upsets for a long time.
I have to tip my hat to fury, all his talk of " he's never faced a man like me, it's young man vs Old man" I thought it was just him talking shite to sell the fight, but he actually believed it and he was right. I thought he'd walk out and his head would go but he was cool and calm and fought a great fight.

Re: Glad to be wrong
I thought Fury had a chance..... The only thing I didn't think was that he would outbox Wlad and win on points.
It's a great result for UK, Ireland and also world boxing. Now we have a controversial, charismatic, fun guy in charge of boxing.

Re: Glad to be wrong
I was wrong also and glad of it. I just couldn't see how Fury was going to even make it competitive.

I think everyone is glad to see the back of Wlad. I didn't watch the HBO feed but I'm sure the excitement in their voices as the fight was unfolding would have been nice to listen to

Re: Glad to be wrong
Couldn't believe what I was seeing, well done Tyson Fury he didn't melt under the spotlight.
He looked so confident walking to the ring, I thought he's going to give this a great go, but assumed WK would actually land a big punch and it'd be curtains, but I'm not sure he did until the last round. He was completely flummoxed by Tyson - weird fight, a 12 rounds fencing match.
The pub I watched it in seemed mainly to be supporting Wlad, which was really weird because they were all English... but by the end of it they were cheering on Fury.

Re: Glad to be wrong
I never gave him a hope, thought he would get sparked in the first few rounds. Was still rooting for him though, after the first round the blood was pumping, after the 2nd and 3rd I realized I had made a terrible call, down the stretch I was certain Fury could have laid him out had he went for it.
Never been so wrong in a long time, and so pleased about it.
Well done Fury and respect to all those who tipped him to win. Even post fight knowing the result I still think your all mad, I still can't work out how anyone forseen that, but massive props anyway.
