    Don't think the scores are terribly unfair at all

    Entirely reasonable cards, imo. You could easily get to a draw, but a win for Bredis might be a bit of stretch.

    Usyk has his Holyfield-Qawi moment, and probably goes on to become a better fighter as a result.

    Damn he’s tall.

    How tall is that guy. He makes Usyk look like a kid.

    Breidis hats off to him, it was uysk's speed and stamina that got the job done, not so much his skills. that is a good thing. breidis number 2 in the world for now.

    I had it 8-4 for Usyk but it was a darn good scrap and Usyk clearly top 10 p4p now and Breidis did Nothing to diminish himself either. Quality fight

    Really good scoring.

    Unfortunate for Briedis, but he did his countrymen proud tonight. He's a world level contender at Heavy right now if he makes the move up.

    Usyk boxed under his standard tonight. I admit that as a fan. Briedis boxed very well, though.
