Did they rang the bell early in the 12th round to save AJ?

    AJ has that quit in him, he smiles, pulls faces, looks like is feeling sorry for himself.

    If there was a minute left in that 12th when AJ got hurt, I'm convinced he would have looked for canvas.

    I think he is concussed. He looked unsteady on his feet starting in the 10th round.

    Let’s get something right and you can go rewatch the lest 15 seconds if you want but none of Usyk final flurry of around 8 punches landed!

    Usyk wasn't in the top shape for Chisora. He had no nutrisionist for that fight and was basically trained by his close friend Sergiy Lapin. And he still beat Chisora clearly (8-4 on my card).

    As for Briedis - Mairis is great fighter himself plus Usyk chose the wrong tactics there trying to take Mairis out. Briedis is excellent counterpuncher and he was cathing Usyk more that anybody ever did. Had Usyk boxed with him like he did with Gassiev, I think he would have beaten him more comfortably

    Because he knows Usyk wasn't lucky and his career will be over after the rematch

    Im not Whytes biggest fan, but I fancy him against Aj in a rematch. I think he cracks him

    I would love to see Delboy get a shot

    I checked the video and they rang the final bell 6 or 7 seconds early. They obviously thought AJ was about to get KOed.
