    Anthony Joshua has issued a warning to oleksandr usyk that he may need to come with more than amateur punches, AJ is too obsessed with power and Usyk does not throw amateur punches at all, however is AJ right that Usyk doesn`t have enough power at heavyweight, or is AJ just an idiot?

    Everybody connected with Matchroom wants Usyk to stand and trade with Chisora, they want Usyk beat and that will be the best chance Chisora has, if Usyk just stands in front of him.

    They don't want or need Usyk forcing the WBO title shot, they have banged on and on about ALL THE BELTS, they don't want to drop one now.

    So ignore all this "Usyk hasn't got enough power", Usyk just need to box Chisora, he needs to use his skills, they are just trying to play a childish mind game and Usyk won't fall for it.

    Usyk may have enough power but I do think he hits to make contact, rather than through the target.

    There are different kinds of power in boxing. Usyk averages 70-80 punhces a round in big fights, and can turn it up to over 100 in key rounds. He can stop fools when he wants.

    He doesn’t need power. He’ll box his head off and Chisora will be swinging at air all night.

    There really isn’t enough evidence to say that yet as he’s only had one fight at heavyweight. Seems to be the go to line to try and play down his effectiveness at heavyweight.

    The hypocrisy isn't lost on me..

    When AJ had the Ruiz rematch, what did Hearn say? He said things like.. "AJ shouldn't stand and trade, he hasn't got to prove he is the toughest or biggest puncher, he has to prove he is the best and that means using his skills and go out there and box his head off."

    Now, well, Usyk apparently has to stand and trade to prove he is tough enough, to prove he punches hard enough.. WTF?

    I hope Usyk puts on a clinic, dissects Chisora, smashes him up and stops him, because I want Hearn, Team Sky and the people like Bellew to have to stand there and roll back all the crap they have been slinging this week.

    The sad thing is, they have zero shame, none whatsoever, so they will pretend they never said it and then roll straight in to "Usyl may have won tonight but he don't beat AJ though"

    Bellew is the worst, by far, what did he say after getting slumped by Usyk "Only two men at heavyweight can beat Usyk, AJ and Fury"

    Bellews prediction for This... Chisora KO. FFS it's just embarrassing.


    This is one big selling game, it has to be, they don't believe most of what they say, they just say it to sell it.

    I just don't like to watch this type of fight as you described above. It's Rigodeaux's fighting style. Throwing stealing punches and making your opponent miss the target all night. It's so damnnnn boring. I want to see actions.

    Usyk needs to worry more about corrupt judging than power punches.

    No offense to you, but a lot of boxing fans actually LOVE to watch this kind of fight.

    Again, I don't mean to sound sarcastic, but it is after all a sporting event and not a bar fight.

    The only Spanish I ever heard from Scott Hall:

    "Callate y escucha me, chico...you are running with the bad guys now."

    I swear he was thumbing though a Spanish dictionary five minutes before broadcast.
