Fight fans hit back at video shared by Deontay Wilder after Tyson Fury draw

Deontay Wilder believes he has proof that Tyson Fury was given unfair recovery time in the final round of Saturday night's WBC heavyweight title fight

Tyson Fury climbed off the canvas after a brutal knockdown with just two minutes left in the main event and Deontay Wilder remains adamant that referee Jack Reiss hesitated with his count, giving 'The Gypsy King' more time than he should have. "I don't want to take nothing away from the fight but like I said, I've got a few questions that I ask myself that are circulating around, about the count," Wilder said in his post-fight press conference. "I saw my man Joe Hanks [against Joe Joyce] and they got to him quick. He hit the ground and they started counting. "But Fury was laid out and it was like they hesitated a little bit or whatever." Three days on from the split draw which has caused much debate in the boxing world, Wilder shared footage of the knockdown alongside a timer which, according to him, shows that Fury was given more than 10 seconds to gather his wits. https://twitter.com/BronzeBomber/status/1070154712828194817 Wilder's mentions have since been inundated with criticism, with fans pointing out inconsistencies in his theory and reminding 'The Bronze Bomber' of the consensus that Fury deserved the victory.

That stopwatch clearly started before he hit the canvas. Very clearly. You can't just start the clock whenever you want.

10 count and 10 seconds are two different things #youdontknowshitaboutboxing

It's pretty sad when not even a professional boxer knows the difference between a 10 count in boxing and 10 seconds..

It's a 10 count NOT 10 seconds & strictly speaking the count shouldn't start till you reach a neutral corner. He took one of your best shots & got up having dominated the fight, I was as surprised as you, accept it & go again. Trying to twist narrative like this just looks petty!

Nice try but wrong. 1. The stopwatch starts before Fury is on the ground. 2. It’s a 10 count not a 10 second time limit count. 3. He beats the count anyway, just like he beat you in the fight. Just accept you got away with one. Fury clearly won the fight.#ClutchingAtStraws pic.twitter.com/YwlEVnOU2j

Count starts early on that video. The count starts when he hits the canvas, not when the punch is thrown. Unless you expect the ref to start a count every time an arm swings... pic.twitter.com/MUeO0HmCJ1
