    Is Usyk British ? cause that was a British stoppage , still it looked like Usyk would have won in the 12th but we will never know for sure. Rico and his corner made sure they got a few extra seconds

    Rico has skills , his defence was pretty good ...better than Anthony Joshua

    Turki is making a habit of trying to spring suprises on fighters after the fight. Eddie and AJ didn't fall for it, hopefully usyk doesn't let them dictate to him what he does. Rico was respectful, credit to him

    I just watched a replay on the end. Did the bell not ring before the ref stepped in?

    Usyk came in overweight, but his legs are declining fast and his snap has declined as a result

    I had people mocking me, sneering down their noses at me, when I was bang on the money again.

    The man is a Kickboxer with 76 fights. He's taken literal kicks to the head.

    He didn't need the ref to "save him" with less than a second remaining in the round.

    Pure corruption and someone should interview the ref to what he was thinking and or paid to do.
