This is crazy how one sided this has been. #FuryWilder2

This isn’t fun to watch. This is a straight up battering! I respect Wilder so much, but it’s really hard to watch him not offer up any offense or defense. Fury looks like he can’t miss. Did Wilder not show up today, or is Fury just that much better? His ear…#WilderFury2

Great job ref

The ref made the right decision. Ear drum busted, no offense from his opponent, being knocked down a few times. Live to fight another day. Sometimes we have off nights and sometimes opponents are just better than us that night. #WilderFury2
