    Yeah he looks like a different person. He spent six months bulking up and training like a lunatic for the first fight. I was concerned about the psychological effect this would have on him. Hence why I've been very quiet about this since I caught wind of talk of him taking the rematch in the summer. But I really didn't expect him to look that bad physically too.

    Do you have any original thoughts, or do you just regurgitate whatever Tucker Carlson says?

    After what the Russians did in Bucha, if you're sitting here talking **** about UKRAINE, I don't really even know what to say about you.

    Absolutely.

    I know what is happening in his home country is terrible, and people should not make the mistake in thinking this will affect his performance, he would not be doing it if he did not believe in himself regardless of what he is going through, i expect a fully determined Usyk to stop Joshua this time.

    Usyk gonna beat that ass. Y'all worried? C'mon, AJ lacks in every area except power and size. AJ can't fight in a way that utilizes his size, he can't outbox Usyk. All OU needs to worry about is stamina. Not an issue. The skills are there!

    Big muscles josh gonna get insta-ptsd the first time he comes face to face with war vet USKY.

    Eddie Hearns LOVES a shot to pieces old name fighter to feed to his heavies so him and the little fat fella will be getting excited here.

    Unfortunately for Hearns and co even a shot to hell USKY should still have too much for the limited chinny robot.

    Post war USKY
    YES Brain
    YES Chin
    YES Heart

    Big pumped up josh
    NO Brain
    NO Chin
    NO Heart

    USKY KO still the only bet in town imo.

    He also has a nice arsenal of punches. But I picked Usyk the first time, and I am picking him now.

    POST SCRIPT: Usyk is the last heavy in the world to worry about stamina. He can throw a thousand punches in a fight when he cares to.

    War vet ? LOL

    Safe to say you dont even know how to rack a round........your hero has never and will never see actual combat, he fights in the Ring,under "gentlemans " rules you register ?

    Still beats the Bodybuilder....

    The ONLY guy who has ever put a severe beating taking Russia head on while almost collapsing them would have been not for massive USA material support for Russia walked in @ 41 , had a mustache and it needed 1458781 other countries on a four front war with catastrophic Russian losses in the east to pre vail...

    Usyk is test tube baby. Raised to fight. Not born and bred like Fury, but very close. A man like AJ cannot beat even a degraded PUNISHED Usyk.

    As I'm sure you are very aware.

    Probably an exaggeration that he lost it such a short amount of time but I can well believe he lost that amount judging from how he looked in the interview

    In the words of Tyson Fury, "AJ got battered by a middleweight"

    Definitely Serge. What was he eating ? Beans?

    Although when I took test boosters and didn't work out for two weeks I lost a sh1t tonne of weight.... Not saying Usyk Is/was on anything but possibly same principle.

    Maybe nothing or very little at all. He's a deeply religious and patriotic man who loves his country and the war would've taken a huge mental toll on him

    The fight isn't until July 23rd, which 2.5 months away. That is plenty of time for Usyk to get his wits about him. If it were late May I think there would be a bigger concern.
