Tyson Fury literally drinks the blood of his enemies

I don't know a great deal about Fury or really about boxing at all. I, like many other people, kind of fell out with the sport once MMA started to be so much more exciting. I watched the Fury vs. Wilder fight live... kinda because mostly it was an event where two really big guys were hugging one another.

Then something really crazy happened.

I believe it was in the 7th and final round that yet another hugging session was going on and Fury leaned forward to taste some of that sweet sweet victory I guess. The announcers and I would say most of the people around the world who saw it thought it was disgusting but then one of the announcers stated that Tyson had stated that he "wanted to taste Wilder's blood" and I suppose he was just coming through on his promise!

The ref is looking right at it so I guess it isn't against the rules to assault your opponent with your tongue. It's nasty AF and made me gag a bit when I saw it, but i guess it isn't against the rules. Just don't bite their ears off and everything will be ok. We have another Tyson to thank for that rule.

The fight was reasonably exciting in the first round when Wilder got a really good right hand in and looked like he was aiming to finish it early, only to have Fury send him to the mat for a standing 8 count, one of the first knockdowns on Wilder's previously undefeated career.

Overall, I though the fight was extremely boring but who doesn't love a bit of a gross-out controversy.

If you got a strong stomach you can go ahead and watch the clip right there.

Wilder has a rematch clause in the contract so we will get to see these two duke it out again in the future. At least for me, I probably wont go out of my way to watch it. The sport just isn't exciting to me anymore.

I don't know much about the guy, but I have heard people say he is a bit unhinged. I would imagine all elite level boxers have at least something small wrong with them. Licking your opponents neck though? gross
