    Ehhh....they gave AJ every round he landed a punch and he still lost. It wasn't that close really.

    I scored it 8-4 but 7-5 would have been acceptable.

    At any rate, nothing there to indicate that AJ would lose to Bivol.

    Not harder to hit though and not quicker.

    Usyk has a 78 inch reach, Bivol only has a 72 inch reach and hasn`t even proven he can beat a top cruiser yet.

    That would take a hell of a a lot of skill.
