As the fight approaches, let us again discuss why I narrowly think Usyk beats Joshua

    One of the judges was Ukranian, but I had a bad feeling after that Hatton fight.

    I would say I was spot on and he wasn't even running but standing right in front of aj.
    Usyk is the real deal since I have seen him in the wsb.

    But against fury I don't know if I can make a good prediction. Very difficult fight

    Aj needs to come out like it's a toughman contest and grab himself one of those hearn referres who will stop the fight quickly.

    Usyk won the fight. Fair and square. When a fighter fights rop opponents like AJ does, there will be times when he loses. Now he will have to dust himself off and try again. Theres absolutely no shame in that. There is shame when a fighter gets a belt and then chooses to fight bums instead of top opponents. That's what Wilder and Fury have done for years. A few tactics change and AJ will win the rematch

    Usyk is far better technically than AJ, he kept falling off balance after throwing the right hand, he needs to improve his work on the pads, the clowns training him no nothing about padwork or heavybag work.

    I think he should never have tried to out box a boxer. He should have bum rushed him, crowded him and bullied Usyk from the opening bell. We will see how the rematch goes but he has been here before with Ruiz and he worked that out. Even when a lot of guys said he would lose again.

    There is no shame in AJ losing, and he is still the third best in the division. But there is shame in you accusing people of "hatred" for picking against a fighter you like. And by the way, we called it right.

    Yes, because Martin, Molina, Breazeale, Takam, Parkr, Ruiz, Pulev are top opponents, right?

    All of those guys you mentioned are all in the top 20 or 30 right now. Where is Sefari, Pianeta, Schwarz and some of the rest of Fury's opponents? We don't even know if Fury will make it to THIS fight so let's not get ahead of ourselves.

    I think this is just sour grapes. It could not be have been motivated by hatred when we were right. You picked wrong and are trying to maintain your delusion.
