    Come on Tyson!!!!

    bit of a pantomime the ring “walks” mind! Fury carried on a kings throne and Wilder dressed like an extra from Star Wars!!

    Great fight by Fury. Absolutely tremendous! Best in the world in my opinion. Be great watching him v Joshua! Although I can only see Fury winning

    Fury bossed that.

    Joshua will struggle against him for sure if that's the next fight on the cards.

    Absolutely love Tyson Fury. World Champion, great boxer, absolute showman!

    The doctors should have stopped that a couple of rounds earlier. Wilder was an open target from the knockdown onwards.

    Yeah should’ve been stopped quicker but was superb! You watched Wilder hitting that “big shot” and it had almost nothing in it after the 3rd round! Fury sapped everything from him.

    Wilder came in heavier than ever before and I'm not sure he could cope with that size, and it didn't really help against Fury who was always going to be the much bigger man.

    An absolute masterclass by Fury.

    He'll need all the help he can get!

    I'm a big fan of Joshua, but Fury beats him comfortably.

    I'd like us to keep the belts in Britain for a while now and make everyone else wait. Fury v Joshua after the Pulev fight, then Dillian Whyte to be a mandatory for the winner (as he waited long enough for his shot). Who knows after that, Fury might be ready to retire and Dubois might be ready to fight for a vacant belt.

    I didn’t see that coming. I could see Fury on points but that was absolute dominance.

    I love his character, there’s a rematch clause for Wilder which is a shame as we all wanna see Fury v AJ.

    He’s a better boxer than AJ, but AJ would see it as his true redemption. That fight needs to happen while they both hold the belts.

    He's a better boxer than AJ, but Joshua is a better boxer than Wilder. He wouldn't be looking for one punch, he'd be a constant threat and of course even though he doesn't have Wilder power, he could still stop Fury. My money would be on Fury but it would be a more competitive fight than the ones with Wilder.

    Agree on that mate.

    I think the Ruiz defeat really made AJ think about the whole package, he was all marketing and power, realising he could be hurt meant for all it wasn’t a great watch the rematch you had to admire his change of tactics and he fought that with his head.

    He’s a better fighter for the loss but I think you’re bang on, better than Wilder but only beats Fury on power, Fury smashes him as all rounder.

    This should work (it did for me, after the 12 second advert.) . . . .

    Just watched that again. He took more and more punishment after the knockdown and into the 4th. Fury might have stopped him in the 5th if the ref didn't interfere. The ref should have stopped it in the 6th, Wilder threw 5 punches in 3 minutes and Fury was teeing off on him. Wilder's corner shouldn't have let him come out for the 7th and then they finally did the right thing during that round.

    The fact that Wilder was talking about "going out on his shield" shows that he wasn't still in the fight to win and if they'd let him continue, he could have gone out in a body bag.

    I don't recall seeing a beating that badly that was allowed to continue for so long since Calzaghe dismantled Jeff Lacy - which was an underrated Brit who "slapped" against an over-hyped American with a massive punch, not too dissimilar to "pillow fists" against "the bomber"!

    I would never dream of paying to watch a fight, or anything else for that matter, on box office.
