    Round 6 is when the real compelling stuff starts, Usyk has proven time and time again he has gears, Verhoeven is used to five 3 minute rounds I think they said kickboxing takes place over.

    Usyk is carrying him just like Mayweather did and this is getting tiring

    Rico is missing more and more, using his footwork even more than in the opening rounds.

    Rico is moving so well in this fight. He know his range very well and he's rarely in range to get hit.

    Rico dropped weight and Usyk put it on.

    Rico has lasted longer with Usyk than Dubois

    Usyk getting his jab on track, then lands a few right hooks Rico backs him to the ropes, flurries. Not muc lands clean. Usyk bends down, Rico spams him with uppercuts. Rico lands a solid jab. Then a one two. Hard counter left from Usyk. A few jabs from Rico. Usyk backing him up now.

    It would be funny if Rico won a decision.
