    Imagine being so befuddled by a guy who's 1-0 that you need to fix the cards and a bull**** stoppage. Canelo level 'win'

    Nah, I don't think he is feel enough to read mail after this beatdown.

    I mean, Ali is the heavyweight GOAT, but this does not negate anything Usyk has accomplished.

    Usyk should write a thank you letter to the judges and ref.

    A wins a win. I'll be sure to let him know George Crowcroft from boxingforum24 isn’t impressed with his performance. He'll do better next time just for you

    He did thank God and Jesus Christ after the fight, perhaps that's who he was referring to :D

    "Beatdown" is when you have your opponent stumbling like a drunk. I'll keep that in kind.

    Rico did just that. Had Usyk looking at the stars. Good to know we agree !

    Uysk is still a great but today has to count against him to a degree IMO.

    Not to mention that Rico has a decade of wear and tear as a champion in kickboxing.

    Maybe its just a case of kickboxing is the superior combat sport these days (I mean it always was in real life situations)

    That and if we are being honest, boxing has dropped off in the heavyweight division

    The judges didn’t stop the fight, and the ref didn’t tire Rico out. Ref also didn’t knock rico down, Usyk did. If not for the British ref and the British stoppage, Usyk would have finished him in the 12th.
