Oleksandr Oleksandrovych Usyk vs. Anthony Oluwafemi Olaseni Joshua II & Hrgović vs. Zhang RBR.

Usyk is not like Tyson, Usyk would be a tall fighter in any decade prior to the 80s. Usyk would dwarf Tyson by 5 inches, that's way larger than the gap between Usyk and Joshua.

Btw, I actually agree with you that Joshua KO was more realistic than Usyk KO, and this is as somebody who picked Usyk by decision.

 

i was referring to size, obviously they are completely different fighters.

Narcissism? Seems to be pretty common among HW champs worth 8 or even 9 figures.

 

Usyk came much closer to stopping AJ in round 10 than the other way round. So by same token folks thinking that Usyk could get a stoppage in 10/11/12 were IMO more astute than AJ getting a hail mary. Usyk wasn't as hurt in round 9 as the pundits made out IMO

 

i take it how it is. enjoy the moment, been waiting for it long enough, lol.

 

He pulled an Adrien Broner.

 

hmmm. no.

 

He's not my boy, I predicted Usyk to win, I actually thought Usyk would stop a gassing AJ about round 9 so you can calm yourself right down again and stop getting all excited.

 

Was it epic…… I missed it?

 

No shame in getting outclassed by Usyk again but Joshua's post-fight meltdown was as classless as a Marxist utopia. It's one thing to be passionate and genuine, he showed it at the wrong time and ruined Usyk's winning moment.

 

my honest assassment is that both fighters were better versions in their first fight. usyk lacked the explosivness to finish joshua and got tired quicker aswell. Joshua timid and gunshy as always. just the addition from garcia the bodywork was positive. If joshau continues boxing he will have a very hard time, His weakness is all bare to see for all. Shaky chin, low stamina after 6 rounds. And the biggest problem is the mental side of his after ruiz 1. Just never the same after that

 

It wasn't really epic, but had some drama. Usyk got hurt in the 9th, and the cards seemed close, but he began putting a beating on Joshua (which he hadn't gotten anywhere near doing before) in the 10th and extended this to the 11th and 12th. Good fight, I had it pretty close, but I wouldn't say epic.

Zhang vs Hrgovic on the other hand was an absolutely epic fight. I (and seemingly most people) thought Zhang pulled it off, but it definitely wasn't a robbery. Hrgovic got put down for the first time in a 100+ fight career (perhaps 200+) and was hurt numerous times throughout, however, when he wasn't hurt, he was leading the fight, staying away, and landing some nice punches from both hands on Zhang.
