    Jack should retire after this, other Cruisers will be too big or fresh for him

    To be fair, Bellew beat Makabu when he was in his prime.

    This Makabu is over the hill.

    Well.. it’s a mute point now..
    I’m my eyes, Makabu outlanded Jack in most of the rounds I scored for him.

    Makabu was getting his ass kicked. You had a clear bias.

    They should force these guys to go through a "test" fight behind closed doors to determine whether they are worthy to hold a belt. In this case Usyk. If you get chinned or lose every round you're not worthy and Usyk would probably do that to these two guys.

    Jack won’t agree and he has promotional clout with Skills Challenge.

    Fingers crossed that Jake can now turn back the clock like Jack just did but Tommy has a lot more left than Makabu did and people all too easily forget that when it came time for Tommy's big brother to deliver he knocked it right out of the ballpark after previously looking average in all his other fights
