    Usyk is going to walk Joshua down. Usyk knows that Joshua can't punch on backfoot so he is going to put pressure and stop him. Usyk by TKO in round 7.

    I don't know. So many people are saying that, maybe it will be the opposite. Boxing is dirty and I know many people bet on Usyk already.

    Yeah its possible that Joshua might just try jab and grab if Usyk comes inside. But Usyk can box masterfully on the outside and his side to side movement is superior, so it will be hard to grab him.

    Usyk probably boxes the first 6 rounds and then he changes to become more aggressive when Joshua is tired.

    If AJ fights more aggressively, definitely.
    If Usyk fights more aggressively, definitely.
    If AJ attempts to go to the body, definitely.
    If Usyk is more elusive, possibly.
    If the fight goes exactly like the first one, possibly.

    AJ doesn't like getting hit. If he listens to his trainer Garcia and tries to KO Usyk, he will get caught a lot and eventually be put into sleep.

    He could if AJ goes on an onslaught early and doesn't get rid of Usyk. Usyk will get rid of a really tired AJ in the 2nd half of the fight. It will be round 13 in that sense.

    Probably the worst thing Usyk could do.

    Usyk can't push someone like AJ back

    This isn't 270 pound Fury who knows how to fight any which way

    He can counter AJ and hurt him which will lead to him pushing him back.

    Usyk can take more flush shots from AJ, than Aj can take flush shots from Usyk.

    People forget that AJ landed some really nice clean shots on Usyk's chin in the first fight and he walked through them. I'm not saying he is some terminator, but his chin appears to be far superior to AJ's, even when considering AJ's superior power

    Affirmative. Usyk is the tougher man, and not merely in a P4P sense.

    It almost seems inevitable. I'm very curious to see Femi's game-plan.

    Hiring Garcia while being a chinny heavyweight who doesn't like getting hit doesn't make sense to me

    AJ has zero chance to beat Usyk. I cant believe people think he has a chance. Please watch this space.

    Femi is going to dance! Chicken dance that is, circa the Garden and jig partner fat Andy.
