    Chisora did way better than AJ. AJ's going to have to change his style for the rematch. He's in the middle of the ring all the time and he wasn't going to outbox him. He was too slow and too passive. I feel like AJ can do better.

    I picked Usyk on points.
    But I wasn't sure the judges would give it to him.

    It’s a shame but AJ is too scared of getting knocked out. Usyk is light fisted at the weight and he should’ve gone for it more.

    Whether Joshua was capable of more than we saw tonight is questionable, but he was definitely getting the wrong advice from his corner who were not impressing on him the need to go for a KO in the final rounds.

    It might not have worked anyway, but what good was telling him to "relax" and "fight smart" behind the jab when he was losing on mobility all fight and struggling to land?

    I go back to my earlier post, Joshua looked like a novice.
    I don't hate on Joshua but to me he hasn't beaten a top world class boxer .
    Kilitscko was done.

    Joshua will want a rematch, but usyk will beat him again.

    Usyk's punch volume wears guys out. Chisora also looked like he was having a heart attack as the rounds progressed. Why people thought Joshua was going to run through Usyk I'll never know.

    Usyk undisputed CW champion and three belt unified HW king and every single one of his world title fights bar one which was in neutral soil were fought in his opponent's backyard. Unheard of. And unlike Holyfield he did it without steroids.
