The criteria comes down to effective aggression e.g consistently landing punches not just throwing desperate haymakers which is mostly what Paul threw in this fight

ring control e.g which fighter is controlling what is happening and enforcing their style

Defence is also a factor e.g blocking, slipping, parrying strikes

Then there is significant strikes throwing lots of punches which aren’t hitting the target isn’t scored the same as landing flush hard shots

Also Paul didn’t land more shots than Fury he landed a higher percentage of the shots he threw but he attempted about half the amount of strikes that Fury did Paul landed 49 strikes from 157 thrown whereas Fury landed 88 from 302 strikes

Fury landed the more significant shots, was controlling the fight from start to finish and was doing a better job of deflecting shots so very few of what Paul threw landed clean
