I hope Howard Foster isn't the referee for Usyk-Wardley

I sincerely doubt it matters who the ref is. Usyk won't get hit by the stuff Parker was getting nailed with. There won't be an opportunity for it to get stopped that way because Usyk will nullify Wardley's offense in a manner not dissimilar to how Huni did, except he won't walk right into something late in the fight when Wardley is on fumes even worse than he was against Huni.

I mean anything can happen in boxing, sure. But I feel like a lot of abnormal stuff would have to happen for that to transpire.

 

That stoppage was not too early. He was taking punishment for probably a full minute of blow after blow and he barely replied and his defence was totally ineffective to it. It was just the right timing

 

Well said.

 

Add to that, that usyk actually knows how to properly punch. Usyk knocks wardley out, no question.

 

Picture this.

Wardley goes crazy pummelling Usyk on the ropes for 25 secs. (Hardly any of the shots are truly landing)

Ref jumps in and waves it off

You can call it a "double team"

"And the NEW, Unified, Undisputed......"

 

Not impossible

 

Both 'Brit' and Murican refs/judges have agendas and these countries have the most obvious agendas the world has ever seen. Just watch the media that comes out of both places.

The only thing that saved Usyk being completely robbed was the crusade for Ukraine and his role as ambassador for the country. Blatantly robbing him was going to get people into a bit of trouble. But they were definitely trying to swing the results there. If Usyk had only edged AJ he would have taken a loss.
