From my understanding he just got bopped off balance while leaning over.
I haven't seen the full scorecards, but I'd bet at least 1 judge had it as no knockdown.

I had read up on Fury but had never watched him box a full match, just highlights. No doubt he can box. It was entertaining watching the back and forth even if Wilder isn’t the technical boxer Fury is - honestly Wilder did better than I thought he would and I think he is capable but just ignores improving technique and wants to look to land his right every time.
But by the book, Fury won that fight.

Had Fury winning 9 rounds to 3, with the two knockdowns making it closer. Glad Wilder was able to make it entertaining. It says something about a fighter fighting a larger man, getting outboxed, and still going all out and finding some big success.
Fury is just incredibly slick for a large man. I absolutely laugh at myself now when I used to believe David Haye would've beaten Fury... Joshua vs. Fury is a huge fight. Joshua goes in and fights like he did against Parker, he's going to lose.
This is the best heavyweight boxing has been in a really long time, it's fun to watch. Although not a egregious as recent fights, boxing is just absolutely terrible with these decisions. You have a fight, or fights, that draws the more "casual" viewer in and you repeatedly declare a draw hoping for bigger rematch numbers - then you lose a quarter of a million buys for GGG-Canelo II because people aren't fucking retarded.

Actually forgot about him fighting Fielding. Canelo is a big favorite, but switching weight classes can always be tricky and it's not like Fielding is a scrub.

Adonis Stevenson is, sadly, still in a coma... Love the sport, but Jesus man.

Yeah, Broner haalways been a massive underachiever. He just never punches enough. He does not "get it". Not asmart guy.

The most punching he does is during the post-fight interviews.
I enjoyed that part thoroughly. "I'd be 7-0 against you".
"welll....*short pause*, that wouldn't mean much"
Room erupted with laughter. We got our money's worth.
