    Usyk does look a little softer in body.

    Very awkward but very effective. Using his size so well.

    Better start to round 3 from usyk but rico still aggressive and coming forward, usyk looking terrible in all honesty. Footwork not what it was

    Usyk always starts slow. Give him another round or two and he will wake up.

    I’ve got it 3-0 but can’t see Rico keeping up all this movement for 12 rounds

    He reminds me of Algieri a little and I remember he had a kickboxing background.

    2-1 Usyk

    Usky landing more shots in the last minutes, but a close round. Rico has a good chin and I think he's going to keep coming forward and keep attacking.

    Rico looks very fluid for such a big man. Moves better than most boxers.

    I would have never thought that Usyk would be down 3 rounds to 0.
