Tyson Fury somehow managed to climb from the canvas and finish his bout with Deontay Wilder after a thunderous 12th round knockdown, but his opponent is clearly not happy with referee Jack Reiss' ten count.
The 'Gypsy King' battled back to give the performance of a lifetime at the Staples Centre and although he didn't beat Wilder in Los Angeles, the 30-year-old can hold his head high.

In fact, many fans were convinced that Fury should have won after dominating in the early rounds, but Wilder has backed himself in recent hours, posting the following clip on social media.

On the way down, the American caught the challenger with a left and Fury seemed to be knocked down and out.
But somehow Fury answered a nine count, to the disbelief of pretty much everyone: Should he have been counted out, though?
You can be the judge of that one.
Thoughts on the clip?
