    Some of those brit pundits are insufferable. Either delusional or are being paid to hype up their own fighters. Just let it go.

    This is just one example of the completely unwarranted disrespect Usyk has been subjected to from members of the British fight fraternity I've been talking about. Simon Jordan is another

    When Usyk beat AJ the narrative from many was all about what AJ did wrong not what Usyk did right (despite having everything stacked against him) and more to the point what Usyk allowed AJ to do

    The same thing happened after the rematch. Remember how the new Ben Davison trained AJ was completely different animal and he was going to knockout Usyk this time, the third totally undeserved time and he didn't even deserve a second crack at him

    Talk of Usyk vs Belly 3 has started already :facepalm:

    I keep hearing people, so called experts, say Usyk's opponents employed the wrong tactics and fought the wrong fights against him, even after he beat them twice. Funny how his opponents always fight the wrong fight against him

    ''You just have to do this to beat Usyk''

    Even E-Hearn knows how dumb that is

    Usyk has numerous different styles and is an incredible backfoot boxer. When so many were saying AJ and Belly just need to be aggressive and walk him down I was like yes please because he'll make them look like Frankenstein's monster and have them chasing shadows and swiping at thin air whilst walking into hurtful counterpunches all night.

    Newsflash! AJ and Belly were the ones who were hurt and in danger of getting stopped in their fights with him but so many had amnesia and forgot that going into the rematches

    AJ was put in his place early in round 1 in the first fight after feeling the weight of an Usyk backhand and then he was hurt in round 3 by one.

    Usyk is the goat, moved up in weight as an older man and took the belts off younger and bigger champions. Dudes who were 3-6 inches taller than him and outweighed him by 25-50 pounds. If that’s not the goat than idk what is.

    Nelson is known for being one of the most boring fighters of all time and fought in probably the top 10 worst title fight in history vs De Leon.

    I like Johnny and I'm not known for adding to the already extremely high praise Usyk gets around here but if he said that and believes it, it's flatly delusional and absurd, unless this is missing context like isolating one attribute and saying it's an average southpaw attribute or something like that.

    I heard of somebody who watched Nelson / De Leon and they never woke up again. His friends thought it was a laugh riot to prank him and told him about the "all action bout" and "wait till the second half it gets crazy" but the next time they met was at his funeral. Sad times :ohno

    FFS man, lol
    I hope to God you are joking, but sitting through that would kill a donkey

    Johnny only won fights because he bore the opposition into submission

    Of course I'm joking. But I tried watching it and made it only to the halfway mark before switching to something more exciting, which was a prospector breaking rocks by hand with a sledgehammer looking for gold.

    The British commentary on the Usyk-Fury fight was some of the worst propaganda this side of North Korea.
