    Boxing in 2026 everybody. Turki is pissed even he knows it was rigged.

    Boxing embarrassed once again. Deserved for Usyk though for not taking actual mandatories like Kabayel.

    To be fair, a rematch is warranted here. Rico arguably was winning, and the stoppage was quite controversial.

    It should be his last. Kabayel can do what Rico can do but way better.

    Is Usyk British ? cause that was a British stoppage , still it looked like Usyk would have won in the 12th but we will never know for sure. Rico and his corner made sure they got a few extra seconds

    Rico has skills , his defence was pretty good ...better than Anthony Joshua

    Turki is making a habit of trying to spring suprises on fighters after the fight. Eddie and AJ didn't fall for it, hopefully usyk doesn't let them dictate to him what he does. Rico was respectful, credit to him

    I just watched a replay on the end. Did the bell not ring before the ref stepped in?

    Usyk came in overweight, but his legs are declining fast and his snap has declined as a result
