    I give Washington a good chance to cause the upset here, he just needs to stick & move and tie Chisora up when he gets inside.
    Chisora is beyond washed up and his legs are gone.

    He won't get away with that against Usyk. Points will be deducted.

    Tricky one.

    I'd rather watch Wilder do him in 1 but yes it would be very funny.

    Chisaurous Rex was considered a solid contender back in the Jurrasic period, now just an opponent for top fighters to duck the best. He may be doing a tune up tonight to set up a clash with AJ in the winter.

    Washington's been stopped in 5 of his last 7.

    Very laboured performance by Hrgovic with an anticlimactic ending.

    Like a hungry Grizzly Bear rudely woken from a kip.

    A cake walk for Joyce.

    Chisora is washed but he'll still walk through Washington

    He hurt Joyce once though, he dropped Hrgovic, then hurt him badly about 3 to 4 more times, out on his feet, Spence going walkabout style. As far as Joyce vs. Filip, if he had 3 more rounds in their WSB match he would've stopped him.

    I thought he was gonna gobble McKean up like a chevapi sandwich but the Queenslander had more heart than expected.

    To be fair though, he got Forrest on the canvas three times in three rounds with shots that didn't even land clean or look too loaded up before he had a medical incident. He also staggered Joyce in the second round of their fight, which shocked the hell out of me. I backed him to beat Joyce by KO (though not with supreme confidence) and still do for the rematch, but I didn't expect him to hurt him that early. That said, Joe did recover from it well and didn't look like he was going down again after that point.

    He was overrated there was people claiming he was the next George Foreman, and that he would beat a prime Mike Tyson. The hype he was getting for beating a B class Heavyweight in Joseph Parker who is faded was ridiculous.
