Boxer advancing forward all the time,is looked favourable by judges, there were alot of even rounds,  but Fury was on the back foot all night. Ref should let the 9th go another few seconds. Fury been dropped or the ref would had stop the fight, didn't do either but given him a standing count. It was never a split decision though. I still though Uysk won by at least 2.

You can't let a round go on another few seconds just to see what happens. If the bell goes the bell goes. It was strange scenario in fairness. Fury would have been better taking a knee then holding on for the final few seconds. Easier said than done of course as Fury was all over the show.

Too brave for his own good. The effort expended staying up was worse for him in the long run rather than if he had went down and took the count.

Yes had just seen that last week. Bit of a shot out of the blue for him. Hasn't boxed anywhere near world level or gone 12 rounds before but obviously too good an opportunity to turn down for him.
