    Usyk is a serious operator I rate highly before and post AJ fights but I maintain my point that if AJ catches him or anyone properly they will go.

    Seemed to catch Ngannou on/near the temple, and over a lazy jab that prevented Francis from being able to brace for impact.

    Do you think Ngannou is STILL feeling that punch?

    No Ruiz got lucky with where his punch landed, it was a disorienting punch that Joshua never recovered from.
    Credit to Ruiz for being able to get up and fire back after being put down hard by Joshua but let’s not get carried away

    He might have got up from the first one maybe even the second one but he wasn’t getting up from that 3rd punch and nor would he have wanted to!

    Joshua never landed those bombs on Usyk, that was the whole reason fans were disappointed in his strategy. He tried to outbox the best boxer in the world who also possesses the highest ring IQ.

    Joshua never used his natural advantages in the whole 24 rounds he fought with Usyk

    Usyk clearly won both fights and quite rightly has all but one of the World Title belts, he also earned the right to be called the Nō1 Heavyweight Boxer in the World.
    However, He will have watched that and been mightily happy that he faced a very gun shy Anthony Joshua who was struggling with reinventing himself and not the guy who just wrecked Francis Ngannou

    Carried away how?
    Ruiz managed to upset Joshua and he lost a razor close decision to Parker.

    Ruiz at the time was a good boxer. This isn´t a controversial take.

    AJ was moving forward and stepped into that huge punch too. So body weight momentum behind it too.


    One hell of a shot.

    That'd put a horse down.

    It's like they formed their own team and E-Hearn and Big Frank are all pally now after being chosen by the Saudis to spearhead boxing over there

    :lol: Yes

    He has but he's still a sycophantic smug creep
