Imran Sidat: Every fight of the #FuryWilder, external trilogy has been amazing! Tyson Fury is by far the best Heavyweight in the world!

Joolz R Shah: Can we stop with the Fury/AJ talk now, please? Joshua wouldn’t survive in the ring against The Gypsy King.

Hassan Waqie: Some fight that. Fury absolutely dominated 4th round onwards though Americans gonna say wilder fought amazing, he got MAULED. just look at the punches stats and judges scored card after 10th.

Richie Woodhall on BT Sport: "It just demonstrated how dangerous heavyweight boxing is, it looked like Fury had got his number in the third round. But you can't afford to get too complacent.

"Fury moved forward too much and he got caught with a haymaker of a punch. Full credit to Wilder and his power of recovery to make it to the 11th round because he was out on his feet a number of times, he has gone out on his shield.

"I think they got it wrong with his weight, he started out strong with the jabs to the bodies, but he couldn't sustain it. Credit to Tyson because it took two and a half minutes to figure it out and then he got his range.

"The only way Tyson was going to get knocked down was to get him over the front foot and to meet that right hand. But as soon as Tyson realised box at distance it made that really difficult."

David Haye on BT Sport: "It was great today to see Fury fight at his potential. At the last fight I didn't think Wilder was near his best but tonight he was and Fury still found that next level."

Richie Woodhall on BT Sport: "It was a brilliant all around performance from Tyson Fury. It was one of the best fights I have seen live because it could have gone either way, but Fury had too much for Wilder."

James Youdale: Fury not at his imperious best and almost let Wilder in. A slug-fest favoured Wilder, so it is testament to Fury that he still negotiated the territory to come out on top. We knew Wilder couldn't outbox Fury, now we know he can't out-punch him either.

David Haye on BT Sport: "He did exactly what he needed to do, he was fighting a different person tonight and he adjusted accordingly, he took his licks and got back up.

"It was a great performance, the guy had a massive punch with 41 knockouts. He took that knockout punch on the button and got back up.

"I thought if Wilder had his right hand then it would have been enough to keep Fury down. The problem was Wilder didn't have that technique to put clusters of them together and really hurt Fury."

Tyson Fury, speaking to BT Sport: "I have proved time and again that I can never be written off.

"I didn't have my best performance but I pulled it out of the bag when it needed to be done.

"He did keep getting up but it was that final right hand to the side of the head that finished him.

"I wasn't hurt. You get hit, you wake up on the floor. I got up and was very conscious the whole time. I was one punch away from knocking him out in the whole fight.

"I went over and said well done and he said he didn't want to show any sportsmanship or respect. Very surprised by that. He’s an idiot.

"I pray for him. I am thankful that we all get out of the fight in one piece and get to go to our families."

Just woken up? Oh I feel so sorry for you as that was worth waking up at anytime of the night for.
