    I know, and agree.


    But we allways hear shite after a fight .

    It may or may not be true. Pinch of salt needed in a lot of it.

    Usyks jaw didn't look compromised to me. No swelling, he spoke ok. He looked ok.


    I'm thinking the twitter feed is bullshite.

    Tyson Fury will go into depression most likely. He was just beaten a small, over the hill 37 year old. He's lucky Usyk wasn't 5 years younger. It would have been even worse for him.

    100% respect for uysk for winning that.

    Personally had it 5/3 fury going into the 9th then uysk 10th fury the 11th and either way the 12th.

    Will rematch tomorrow but I had draw.

    That said if it had been stopped in the 9th no one including fury could complain.

    Wow, what a performance! So happy for Usyk!

    But boxing is still as broken as it gets, those scorecards are a joke. 116-111 would have been fair, 115-112 already a little close, but 114-113 Fury?!?! Usyk needs to run away with this, he's gonna have to knock Fury out in the rematch. Tyson's post fight interview was a disgrace, he just can't help himself. He was in a great fight and made a great effort, just came up short, but claiming Usyk just won because of the war is a shame.

    Please Usyk, ride into the sunset! Don't let them rob you the next time!

    He's 37. As a matter of biology, yes, he's over the hill. Still beat Fury's ass anyways.

    Had it been stopped rd 9, then there'd be nonstop debate on whether it was an early stoppage for a HW championship fight with all the belts on the line. You stop the fight to save amateurs still on their feet from really getting hurt like Conor Mcgregor but not a HW champ still on his feet.

    Furys way more over the hill than Usyk is.

    Don't think any version of Fury beats Usyk mind. 2015 vintage has the best chance.

    Yes he lost his dignity in that post fight interview, he must have read Wilder's HOW NOT to be magnanimius in defeat book of shame.

    He wasn’t robbed though. I personally had Fury knicking it as I thought he took a few close rounds. He dominated from 4-7 and looked like he was going to cruise to victory, but credit to Usyk for his comeback.
