    Biggest money making fight today:

    Usyk-Paul.

    There, I said it. Not the best, not the most praise worthy, but would make the most money. I guarantee it.

    Kabayel is the only one I can see remotely troubling him now. Parker has earned a shot, but I just don't see what he can do to Usyk.

    At this point, I think it's fair to say Usyk is absolutely in the discussion for best since Ali. Dubois wanted to come out aggressive and like everything everyone tries against Usyk, it... didn't work. He's got this uncanny ability to make you not do what you were wanting to do.

    If Usyk wants to go so balls out as try to be the GOAT, he fights Parker and Kabayel. If he beats both and then retires... jesus he's up there.

    He's a legend. Big Frank just says the same. He is a boxing genius and one of the greatest fighters and HWs ever

    One of the most impressive performances of Usyk's whole career, aged 38.

    Genuinely looked like he could fight into his 40s tonight.

    Nah, he got up the moment the count ended, had no emotion on his face, and directly walked for his corner.
    He was waiting for the count to end.

    I am 100% that he quit. Now, was it the right move? Arguably, but this is the third time he has quit in a fight. If he is badly hurt, he will give up.
    Meanwhile Joshua gets all of the hate in the world, but he will literally go out on his shield.
