‘The Gypsy King’ knocked out Deontay Wilder in round 11 and retained his WBC heavyweight world title. However, much like the previous two fights, even this fight had its fair share of controversies.
Fans, other fighters, and even Andre Ward on the fight desk pointed out a moment in the fight that could have possibly changed Wilder’s chances. After getting dropped in round 3, the Alabama native made a comeback in round 4 and dropped Fury back as his big right hand connected effectively.
However, it seems that the referee gave Tyson Fury a bit more than 10 seconds to get back up after Wilder dropped him. A video that has now gone viral shows that after the fifth count, the referee decided to take some time off in between before resuming with the sixth count.
Before delivering the sixth count, the ref asked Wilder to step back into his corner and then proceeded with his countdown. Many objected to the delay in the referee’s countdown. ...

No boxer you'll speak to will say that Wilder has better skills than Fury. If you simply compare head and foot movement, Fury's better.

Also Fury had already begun clubbing Wilder's left ear in round 2... Wilder eventually gets knocked out with a punch there later on
