Is this your reddit atheism phase? The power of Christ compels you heathen just as it gave Usyk the strength to win.
No surprise that the usual gronks are rejoicing in Usyk having his first bad performance at almost 40 years old.
Cruiserweight goat is justifiable, I think Holyfield might be greater but whatever it's close enough that I don't care as long as they're your top 2. Heavyweight goat based on resume is pretty bad and the p4p goat talks were straight up laughable. If you had Usyk in your top 20 p4p all time or higher before this you have recency bias or you just really like Usyk.
Usyk by default. Certainly not a GOAT HW candidate, though. He could have been in my top 10 before, but tonight was disgraceful.
The judges had it a draw and the ref waved it off after the round had ended, Usyk should show them some gratitude
Ah, nice to see you've changed your tune about a win being a win - wasn't so for Canelo, Haney or Ward was it? Yeah man, a win scored over a guy 9-1 up still fighting after the round is over is a win.
"God, you're in the wrong place tonight - Frazier to Ali in the fight of the century. "God, you're in the right place tonight" - Usyk to the ref before needing saving from the Dutch Ngannou.
Ya & still won tho.. understandable mass overreaction cos the expectancy of a Usyk domination was so high.. it had awkward night written all over it.. but because Usyk has lived rent free in many people's heads for so long now anything other than a clean sweep would be seen as a loss. Its time to hang em up now, no more Turkey freak shows they're jinxed.
