    No. Fury and Joshua.

    I don't think he runs them close on tonight's showing.

    Chisora made it very unpleasant for Usyk, but it was obvious Usyk won every round except the first couple.

    Usyk dominated by scorecard, but each round Chisora was still landing a couple decent shots on Usyk.

    Credit to Usyk's chin.

    That’s a bad call dude. You don’t win round for blocked shots.

    Yep exactly how I saw it. Baffled how anyone could have seen that close or come to the conclusion that Usyk is out of his depth at heavyweight.

    I only gave Chisora the first and third rounds. A couple of others were close but clear Usyk win.

    Fight went like most Usyk fights, he takes a few rounds to have a look at you, then he gradually breaks you down. He goes from landing pitty pat shots to slowly chip away at his opponents reserves then suddenly goes through the gears and starts hurting his opponent.

    Chisora gave it his all, but he needs to be around 240lbs to be able to sustain a fast pace for more than a few rounds. He never gave up and did enough late on to keep Usyk from trying to go for a late KO.

    10-2. That wasn’t hard to score. It wasn’t close. Activity is not success.

    Where are all the posters who thought Usyk would crumble when punched?

    Evidently not. Get yourself some glasses man, you're usually a good scorer. Chisora pounding on arms and hitting gloves isn't winning rounds. Yeah, he brought the pressure and in almost every round, the cleaner work landed from Usyk. Chisora caught him flush maybe 10 times in the match.

    That's my score as well. I'm sure some had it Usyk 130- 100.

    Workman like performance from Usyk. But I seen enough from the Witherspoon fight that he isn't heavy handed enough to faze these huge behemoths. Prime Haye would have flattened him. Lol

    I can’t undertand your take on this at all lol. What exactly did he do wrong in there? Please share some analysis because this is the third post you’ve made slating Usyk’s performance but you’ve not given any reasoning. On what basis do you think he performed badly and who do you think beats him. The way you’re talking indicates that a lot of heavyweights beat him.

    He's levels above Fa. That fight reminds me of Haye Macarinelli. The UK public saw it as a genuine toss up because it was a domestic fight but in reality it wasn't.

    Light work for even an unmotivated Joe.

    Chisora did nothing but punch gloves for the most part. Activity does not equate success.
