    Gassiev just isn't that good. After Lebdev started putting it on Gassiev late in the fight I knew Usyk was going to easily beat Gassiev, but Usyk can't crack an egg. If he had any power whatsoever he would've stopped Gassiev. But, that aside Usyk did show excellent defense and footwork can completely neutralize power, since even when Gassiev was landing Usyk was always in position to roll the punches.

    Sorry to nit pick, when I quoted it, it was still in that critical time frame where you can edit your post without it actually saying you did, but I couldn't stop myself lol

    Gassiev has a elite chin - took Dorticos bombs all night and ate lots of shots from Usyk.

    Besides Usyk is all about the accuracy and the breaking down of an opponent with movement, angles, speed, workrate and superiority in all other aspects OTHER than power.

    Gassiev was rejected to losing in the last two rounds, he knew he needed a miracle.

    Mike Jones and Randall Bailey was another one in the 10th. The deadest fight going, then Bailey pulled out the KO from nowhere, Randy Orton style

    It would be Usyk biggest payday to date, a HUGE PPV in the U.K.

    I think this fight happens next, makes sense.

    No he isn't. He is naturally right handed just like Lomachenko.
