ALL three judges had Tyson Fury winning before he knocked out Dillian Whyte in the sixth round.

But the trio all differed in their opinion of the bout with one judge giving two rounds to Whyte.

Fury dominated the fight from start to finish

Judge Juan Carlos Pelayo scored rounds two and three in favour of the Body Snatcher despite Fury landing more punches in both.

In fact, Whyte failed to land more punches than his opponent in any round, yet Guido Cavalleri also judged Whyte to have won the first round.

That meant Canadian Robert Tapper was the only judge to score every round 10-9 to the Gypsy King.

It mattered little in the end as Fury delivered one of the best punches of his career to flatten The Body Snatcher.

Although Fury landed more than double the punches Whyte managed, the fight did appear to be a closely fought contest.

Measures were also put in place to ensure fairness amongst the judges – with Brits banned from the judging panel.

Nevertheless, some boxing fans were perplexed by the scoring with one writing on Twitter: “What’s that middle one Pelaying at?”

Another added: “Whyte never won a round! It was a demolition job!”

A third said: “I had it 5-0. Have no issue with 4-1 as not a huge amount happened in rounds 1-4 but Whyte certainly didn’t win any of them cleanly or decisively hence why I gave them all to Fury. 3-2 someone is a little bit biased tbf.”

After the win Fury praised Whyte’s effort, stating: “Dillian is a warrior and he will be a world champion but he came up against something special.

“I am one of the greatest of all times and losing to me is no disgrace.

“He was a tough man but I have the heart of a lion and am as strong as a bull.”
