    Come Saturday night in Jeddah, could Usyk get robbed in the oil country? Saudi has already treated AJ well in the past

    They will try as hard as possible.

    Everything will be against Usyk. starting from ring size, finishing with fans and ref.

    Any close round will go to AJ.
    Thats why I feel Usyk will stop him in the second half.

    No, if it goes to points I don't see Joshua winning. He doesn't have the boxing skills to beat Usyk on points in a 12 round fight. Judges couldn't rig it that much, it would be too obvious.

    I was thinking this. If it's close I could see it.

    AJ's never had a corrupt decision go his way. One judge was obviously on crack scoring the fight 7-5, but the other two judges scored it 8-4.

    8-4 is fair enough. I had it 9-3.

    I doubt the judges will be needed.

    Usyk hasn't put on that amount of muscle for a 12 rounder. Although, I'm sure he trained for 12 rounds.

    Doubt it. He's already beaten AJ on points once. He doesn't need a ko to win.

    Usyk will be going for the stoppage this time to remove the decision from the judges hands .

    He beat AJ in the UK, it’s unlikely he gets robbed although you cannot account for poor decisions.

    I don’t see it though.

    Usyk won't need the judges as he'll be going for a stoppage. Even if he doesn't get it the last few rounds are going to be torrid for Joshua. He'll wish it was Wilder in there he was blatting.
