    Breidis wins like expected.

    Usyk won't be impressed I think

    He is, its just that he's cautious and conservative in his approach and Huck and Perez are both good at smothering and surviving when hurt and MB doesn't usually press for KO and he let's them take that play away too easily because he doesn't want to risk anything himself.

    Briedis is like a CW Wlad Klitschko.

    Jeez, Mairis is my man, I simply cannot not be a fan of his but I'm disappointed AF. Sure, Perez is all wrong for him but c'mon man... box, at least try and do something with the left... what's with the move-move-uppercut-clinch tactic? Disappointing.

    Perez showed he has the skill and did better than those who said he didn't have a chance. But considering that, we have to say he disappointed tonight. He could've picked it up at so many points, could've won it if he showed more fire, essentially gave it away. Maybe he would've done better if he had more world-class experience at cruiser.

    How ****ing tall is R-Mac? He is dwarfing Briedis. Would like to see R-Mac v Rio Ferdinand.

    This fight was Klitschko-Povetkin all over again except more boring without knockdowns.

    What were the fight odds before this fight? I knew Briedis would win this but didn't bother checking the odds because I thought they'd be poor value.

    I agree, Briedis will reach a point in the fight with Usyk -- probably after four completed rounds --whereby he becomes frustrated and just looks to land one big uppercut. Such crude tactics won't cut much ice with the fistic Cossack, and I think there's even a chance that Usyk can score a late-rounds TKO over Briedis.
