Good on the corner. Most of the time the corner just allows their guy to get beaten way beyond necessary. They knew Wilder had nothing left and they stopped it before something serious could happen.

Ya. You could see the towel get thrown then the ref steps in right after.

In my mind Fury is 2-0 against Wilder. I thought the 1st fight was an easy decision in his favor, tonight made no doubts about it. The Fury/Joshua fight better happen within the next year.

So i dont follow boxing much really but how does fury match up with joshua? watching joshua againt ruiz he looks like a good technical boxer but really showed me nothing to think he would win that matchup..

he may be a lot better than i think he was just very unimpressive, even in the rematch where he was scared to do much outside jab and throw a couple of rights.

I had Joshua losing to both Fury or Wilder before tonight. Even being just dominated by Fury, I would have Wilder winning at this point. That Ruiz loss wrecked him.

It's funny because the dream match was Wilder and Joshua. Fury just laughed at all of us.

Fury is by far the best boxer at heavyweight, at his size you'd expect him to be a plodder, but he moves around the ring like a middleweight. Joshua is a lot like Wilder with better technical skills but a much weaker chin, those shots that Wilder took would have slept Joshua, he loses to Fury as well but it'll be a megafight and massive money is in it so it'll happen.

It's the only fight to be made for either at this point. Money and all the belts with the lineal championship.

Fury made him look silly.

Hate to come off like I'm taking something away from Fury. He absolutely outclassed Wilder. But Wilder had no balance after round two. Was it the ear shot? He looked like complete garbage for most the fight. No legs. His right hand was like trying to fire a canon from a canoe.

I don't see Wilder exercising the rematch clause. Wilder will be seeing Fury in his nightmares for a couple of years.
