Can you spot the errors in the following two paragraphs? They have nothing to do with facts about the fight.

Fury (31-0-1, 22 KOs), who led on all three scorecards (95-91, 94-92, 95-92) at the time of the stoppage, was forced to overcome an almost inhumane amount of resiliency shown by Wilder (42-2-1, 41 KOs) in the first fight for both since Fury's TKO win in their 2020 rematch.

"Like the great John Wayne said, I'm made of pig, iron and steel, baby!" Fury said. "I took some big shots but my lord and savior helped me up and kept me going. It was a great fight tonight and it's worthy of any trilogy in the history of the sport."

It should be pig-iron and steel, not pig, iron and steel. John Wayne was not claiming pig DNA to be part of his makeup.

I also think it should read 'inhuman' not 'inhumane' amount of resiliency.
