    Usyk is going to fold to the body like that against Fury

    All the top contenders and fellow champs at the weight will be itching to face the winner. I've been saying Makabu is there for the taking for a while now and he clearly lost his last fight against Mchunu and most of his recent fights have been real close and he could've conceivably lost some of those too with a bit of bad luck or sans a bit of good luck. And Jack clearly lost his last fight against Popeye in most people's eyes and obviously he's 39.

    Jack is much more skilled even at this advanced age than Riakporhe and Okolie but they'd beat him on sheer size alone.

    And many were really sceptical that Beterbiev could win a belt at CW?

    And just as I say that!! Another 10-8 round and I have it 106-101 Jack going into the last. Makubu needs a knockout

    Makabu dropped again in the eleventh and is in very bad trouble on these scorecards. Makabu needs a KO but looks absolutely done. 12th coming up, will be fun.

    Jack:1,4*,5,7,9,11*,
    Makabu:2,3,6,8,10

    *Makabu down.

    Round 1 Jack 10-9, close
    Round 2 Jack 10-9, close
    Round 3 Makabu 10-9
    Round 4 Jack 10-8
    Round 5 Makabu 10-9
    Round 6 Makabu 10-9
    Round 7 Makabu 10-9
    Round 8 Jack 10-9
    Round 9 Makabu 10-9
    Round 10 Jack 10-9, close
    Round 11 Jack 10-8

    Jack clips him with another right, down goes Makabu again. Makabu seems stunned, Makabu hurt with a right to the body, but still fighting back. Jack tying him up, pushing down. Jack with one twos. Makabu is dead tired. Still coming forward though. Makabu lands a one two, then a hard left late.

    Great round 11 by Jack. He's in really good shape.

    This fight once again proves that cruiserweight post-Usyk is a joke.
