Fans convinced they've witnessed 'one of the biggest robberies in boxing' on Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury undercard

Johnny Fisher maintained his unbeaten record with a split decision win over Dave Allen on the Fury vs Usyk undercard, but fans aren't convinced by the judges scorecard.

'The Romford Bull' was the heavy favourite coming into Saturday night's contest in Riyadh and in the opening rounds, he caught Allen with a number of flush punches to the body and head.

But after a solid start to proceedings, Fisher was rocked in the fifth when Allen landed a barrage of punches. In fact, Allen dominated for large periods in the latter stages.

Many expected the Doncaster-born fighter to have his hand raised but to the surprise of many, Fisher secured the WBA intercontinental heavyweight title, with two judges scoring the fight 95-94 in his favour.

The other had it 96-93 for Allen, who looked in shock at the controversial verdict.

He wasn't the only one. Here's how fans on social media reacted to Fisher's latest victory.

One wrote: "That's an absolutely horrific robbery. Horrific. Johnny Fisher did not win that fight. I'm no Dave Allen fan, but that's a disgraceful call. Disgusting."

A second said: "That’s sad. Dave Allen deserved to win and would have been a career defining moment for life! I really feel for him. Nothing against Johnny Fisher as he’s a nice lad but that was sad to see!"

A third commented: "Wow. I’m the biggest Johnny Fisher fan out there but he didn’t win that. Dave Allen should have had his hand raised. Hmmm," and a fourth wrote: "That’s really poor, Johnny Fisher didn’t win that fight. Really poor."

A fifth added: "F*** me that is one of the biggest robberies in boxing, absolutely embarrassing. Fisher getting the decision because of his following. Pathetic."
