    This is some of the best body punching we have seen among heavyweights in a long time. Other than Usyk, no current heavyweight seems to work the body as well. Great work Kabayel.

    Kabayel is legit.

    Poor Zhang. Wish he had competent management early in his career.

    Also, twice now that we've witnessed absolutely non tolerable reffing in two huge heavyweight fights (Fury Usyk 1, and just now the body shot)

    I know nothing is perfect but man.

    Kabayel is one of the goat heavweight body punchers

    Kabayel has supreme confidence in his abilities.

    Zhang and Makhmudov should grab a bite and bond over their shared experience.

    Kabayel has a really watchable style, can't remember a heavy that commits to the body punchng as much he does.

    Shockingly good performance from Agit beating Chisora, Sanchez, Makhmudov, Zhang.... he was completely under the radar, coming out of no where now he is a bonafide killer

    Bit of a bizarre fight but still good. Seems more like a fight out of a dream than a real fight tbh.

    Unless Parker wins convincingly tonight, I think Kabayel should get the next shot on Usyk.

    I knew it.

    If Zhang didn't stop him early he would be in trouble.

    Kabayel got the style to beat Usyk or at least give him hell

    Usyk will not fight Kabayel for sure

    There's a reason neither Joshua nor Fury went in with Kabayel when the bouts were mooted IMO
