    There were technical problems on DAZN:s end so I couldn't see the whole fight live.

    But I had it like the AI card, but the judges' cards were decent this time around.

    The main difference this time around was that Fury fought a more defensively responsible fight and gambled less on offense, so he copped less punishment but also dished out less. Usyk did well to neutralise his uppercuts and body shots better than last time. But my score in this was pretty much as in the last one.

    In fairness, those two guys had glaring limitations that Parker was smart enough to take advantage of. I'm sure he'd give Usyk a good fight but I don't see him winning.

    But hey, it's boxing, the theater of the unknown. I'd be down for it. Beats another ****ing rematch for sure :lol:

    A delusional person? You mean, like someone who gets hyper fixated to the point of obsession, in an attempt to show up, one of his supposed friends?

    It looked like he didn't train at all to me. You can't gain weight if you are in the gym burning calories from training. That was fat he put on. Look at those tits. The only way you get tits like those is if you just sat on your ass. Hitting the bags and throwing punches would give you a different physics.

    Just calling it how it is man. Try keeping your personal feelings out of scoring boxing matches.

    TNT were the opposite. Usyk would literally land 2/3/4/5 bodyshots, unanswered. Fury would then throw an assuming backanded flick out and Richie wood hall was spunking all over the commentary booth.
    Was ridiculous.

    I did, you didn't. Now keep wishing for that draw and trilogy that will never happen. It wasn't close, the only people who think that are delusional Brit Fury fanboys, and evidently you.

    "I think when you don't get the knockout, you can't get the win."

    Francis Ngannou agrees :lol:

    Yeah, he didn't look to be in great shape. He kept the pace pretty well, though.

    No problem with the result. I just thought it was closer, although 116-112 is far more reasonable than 118-110. Would much rather see a trilogy than Dubois II. But ultimately the best call is for Usyk to retire. Chances are he will carry on and be upset by a mediocre HW along theway.

    I had it closer (115-113) but can't complain that the judges scored an extra round for Usyk.

    This was a fight with a lot of close rounds that could be scored either way. Imo scores anywhere from 117-111 Usyk to a 114-114 draw are defensible.

    At least we can agree on the last point, Usyk has proved everything he needs to.

    Bricktop is a dumb stack of diarrhea, as is ODH and Arum scoring this for Fury, who again got schooled by the technically superior fighter.

    He tried and it's not that easy againt Usyk. Fury was laying all over him to drain Usyk's energy and to an extent it worked. Usyk is strong and slippery in the clinches.
