Oleksandr Oleksandrovych Usyk vs. Ricardo Verhoeven & Frank Sanchez vs. Richard Torrez Jr. RBR.

You missed my point: Kabayel can not fight the way Rico did, he quite simply is incapable of producing a comparable performance. Kabayel would gas in 3 rounds if he tried to move like Rico.

 

We were just robbed of a spectacular 12th round. I gave Usyk only three rounds up until then. The champ was also robbed of a possible clear victory…this will go down as a black mark on the Usyk story.

 

I'm impressed. Massive dude, heavily muscled and shouldn't be able to fight in a high energy style for that long. Would love to see him against some other world-rated heavyweights.

 

If he didn't gas he would have cruised to victory. He was basically out of gas in the 11th.

 

Before this fight I'd laughed that suggestion off.

But, I could see it now for sure.

 

bull**** cards. Rico won almost every round. That was incredible and he was robbed.

he’s got a bright future. Usyk should retire now.

 

Kabayel is just as average as the rest of the division.

 

Usyk is probably on steroids. Look at his huge muscle mass.

 

He was going to be robbed anyway

At least eveerybody and his dog saw it was a robbery. Blatant corruption.

 

He wasn't up heading into R11. Two judges had it a draw and the other had Verhoeven up. After the knockdown had R11 ended, Usyk would have been up and would have been the winner unless he got dropped in R12.

 

It looked like it was after the bell to me. Terrible stoppage.

 

I don't like the commentator trying to railroad Usyk into committing to a fight moments after getting the win. I think Usyk loses if he carries on, he must have earned good money, Quit while your ahead.

 

So are we in agreement with what just happened? they were going to give it to usyk all along, turki snapped at both usyk and reeno.

 

Yes but everything usyk threw after the stoppage landed, and he was dead tired. He was going to get stopped. Ref should have let it run though

 

I thought it was a mediocre fight. Usyk didn't do anything until the eleventh. I think he would have stopped Rico in the 12th but the fight should not have been stopped in the 11th.
