    OOPS. They took down the video already.

    It was incredible.

    The 6'9" 275 lb. Tyson Fury knocked out the 6'7" 240 lb Deonte Wilder in the 11th round.
    It was an awesome battle with five knockdowns altogether.
    They're calling it one of the best fights ever.

    I had to watch this bout on replay. I think I told you about taping Tuesday Night Fights and then using it to teach percentages and statistics to my classes of sweat hogs back in the 90’s. One of the “kids” I had in that class became a huge boxing fan and messaged me Sunday morning to make sure I had seen the fight. I hadn’t … but have now. “Awesome battle” is right! Great fight.

    Have you ever seen a champion prize fighter train,
    sparring before the fight? It’s a 12 round bout. He’s 15 rounds
    into his sparring. They push him to 20 rounds. The champion
    of the world in his weight class has completely had it. They force
    him to go more. He’s in the 22 round on his 3rd sparring partner.
    He collapses in the ring from exhaustion, on his hands and knees
    and starts pleading. No more, no more!

    I weigh in a 223 lbs and I know what happens when I hit others in the head , actually with a open palm to the chin .

    As a former professional boxer, I can assure you that this is a fanciful account.

    Thumbs up

    His sparring partners are much bigger than him.
    Maybe by 20 or 30 pounds. At least three inches
    taller. They are heavier and have a longer reach.
