And it would seem the BBBoC agree and have rightly enforced a re-match on the two English heavy weights. Fury looked to be troubled during their first encounter and was unable to control the majority of the fight. McDermott's come forward style worked a treat against fury's jab which rarely found it's target. Whilst I thought both of them traded well and hat's off to Fury for going the full ten rounds, it was his first fight above four rounds and to do it against a seasoned veteran like McDermott is good going. But I feel that McDermott looked to be the better on the night and took the early to mid rounds with ease. The latter rounds I would say I'm torn between Fury rallying well and pressuring the tired looking McDermott and the fact that McDermott at this point leaning heavily on Fury had done enough already to win the fight. It was a close call and to leave it all to the referee is a bit of a shambles to say the least, but at least we now have a re-match due for December which I still tout Fury to win, especially since he now has the experience and will to adapt to the one trick pony in McDermott.
Next time round we are all expecting a WAR!
