Think it should be Usyk's but a draw wouldn't surprise me.

Usyk for me because he was the only one who looked like winning but ultimately it’s punches landed no matter how soft

Can't really argue, only 1 round in it according to the judges, which is how I saw it. So no argument here

Let's hope they get it on again, Usyk's fitness was the difference for me, Usyk never slowed down, Fury visibly tired from the 8th round. Usyk got a 10-8 round and won by 1 point. That was the difference.

But what a great fight.

I don't know much about boxing but from watching it Usyk never really broken into a sweat and always though Fury was on the backfoot so thought the judges will go in Usyk's favour

Looks like there will be a rematch...

Usyk engine in the second half fight was too much.

How has Usyk an elite athlete put on two stone of muscle mass in his mid to late 30s?

I had Fury ahead comfortably up to r8, but it has always been the case that the boxer who finishes stronger and gets a knockdown is likely to win a split decision.
However, their is a rematch clause so this is half time.

Looking like he could end up best fighter of the generation. To do undisputed cruiser and undisputed HW in 22 fights. Wow

ps that’s not to say Fury can’t win rematch. Size still matters (unfortunately )

Fury will, if he trains properly and is professional, beat Usyk in the rematch. The showboating early on cost him as he should have put the hammer down first 6 rounds and not let off at times.

Said well done, congrats but then he said he thought he won the fight which is fair enough but then seemed to suggest the referee decision was swayed to Usyk because his country is at war

And I think Usyk has the right size. Well conditioned, quick and powerful. I think he may win the rematch even more comfortably depending on how Fury reacts

Great fight, correct result. I'm surprised the judges actually got it right. It should have been in England though.

Usyk won 1.2.3,8,9,10,11 (plus a knock down). Even if you give Fury one of the first 3. Usyk still won.

That judge who gave it to Fury


Usyk is unreal, different class.

Usyk will destroy Joshua if they end up fighting.
