    Think he's just slowing down . Should seriously think about retiring unbeaten. He's an all time great and will sit alongside Marciano with that record of his. No need to do show fights where it'll come unstuck , and quite soon too, on tonight's showing

    Fair play to Statham. I had him down as Jake Wood levels of casual but it was great matchmaking in the end.

    I always felt he should have retired after the second Tyson Fury fight. He probably saw this as easy money.

    Rico spat the gumshield it to buy more time and was on wobbly legs. He was about to be flattened.

    That’s what I’m saying, ref should have docked a point and then let round 12 happen.

    That referee will be added to the VAR team for Celtic’s first league match next season. That stoppage was straight out of the bheast sporting integrity handbook.

    Istanbul is a disaster waiting to happen. You see a stoppage like that in a Turkish ring all hell breaks loose in the arena.

    Rico is a class act and an unreal athlete.

    Usyk is not finished yet - I have him beating Kabayel

    But Moses Itauma is the man now - no question

    Usyk looked soft physically, lacked the foot feints, the level changes and the active guard.. exited on straight lines and not on the angle, even look disinterested at times so for me it’s simple - time to retire before the legacy is dented.
