Anyone see that in the 6th ?

Fury was incredible he destroyed Deontay Wilder.

Fury outclassed Wilder then, Fury outclassed and battered Wilder now. Wilder was tired, injured, bloodied.

Did he really taste blood?

I saw that, but I thought he was sticking his tongue out at someone in the crowd, I didn't think he went full on Nosferatu.

I thought that was idiotic, but then again who's gonna blame the legit winner..

The gypsy also has some Dracula dna in him

It looked terrible. Who does that in a fight.

Unless I'm mistaken he was licking blood off his opponents body, just want to make sure of where we stand here ?

His tongue never actually touched the blood. Would've been cooler if it did.

The look he gives him at the end of the round is even better than the tongue thing. He had a really vicious expression on his face as that round ended. A look that said he wasn't gonna be satisifed with anything short of a knockout finish.

Fury is such a character and great for boxing, I’m wondering if he transcends boxing and became’s something like a Mayweather or Pac-Man. Definitely not at that level yet however he’s on the trajectory.

Yes I’m saying this before ppv numbers for his latest but it’s just a thought and a mild forecast. Lot of social media attention from his victory. People who have almost no interest in boxing coming out of the woodwork as fans.

Who are you Sherlock Holmes ?

Fury has put Manchester back on the map.

Wilder was 230 and still couldn't do it.

This could go down as knockout of the year.

I think he was just making faces at someone?

I didn't see any actual blood licking

Haha, take it you aren't a Guardiola fan.

No it couldn't. Knockouts of the year are spectacular "Holy sh*t, that guy ain't getting up" KO's. Not stoppages while the guy is on his feet.

It's gonna wind up being one of the biggest marquee wins of the year though almost certainly.

I don't get it

Yeah Fury licked Wilder's blood. He said he wanted to taste blood.
He did everything he said he wanted to do.
He should get a hep test though.

They showed it in slow motion. He didn't lick the blood. The tongue was floating a few inches above the shoulder.

I would imagine they surely test the fighters for diseases that could be transmitted through blood before any major fight where blood could potentially be spilled surely.

Joshua and Hearn will be in no hurry about it.

That's what I thought.

I am yet to see an 'official' stream of the fight, but when I watched I was sure that Fury didn't actually taste the blood, just stuck his tongue out near to Wilder's shoulder.

Wilder will be back and Fury will be tasting his own blood then.

Hell he might've tasted it this time. A few right hands did land...didn't cause him to lose though. He won't lose next time either I don't figure.
