    116-112 Usyk

    Joshua has performed incredibly well and showed some good improvements under Garcia with the bodywork. He is still one of the best HW in the world, Usyk is just ATG.

    Joshua is having a good final round. Usyk is exchanging when he doesn’t need to.

    Closest it can be is 114-114.

    It's a waste of time putting Joshua as an option TBH no offence.

    117-111 Usyk with 2-3-9 for AJ.
    Rounds 1 and 8 are also quite close and could come back to him without a scandal, which would make Usyk 115-113. 116-112 seems like a good score to me.

    I rewatched the fight yesterday.

    117-111 Usyk

    First watch I had it the same score but had given AJ different rounds IIRC (think I had 2-2 after 4) - the sequence of scoring would probably change again on another rewatch but the score would most likely stay the same.

    8-4 Usyk, similair to the first fight AJ is very much in it after 9 rounds. Usyk is slightly up and AJ hurt him in the 9th. He is looking to continue the momentum and win the later rounds.
    Then Usyk shifts in another gear, shows great heart and beats him up the next round and takes the last few.
    Usyks stamina, heart and skills win him both fights fair and square.

    As I recall I gave Joshua 2 rounds, but being a bit more generous it could have been 3.

    I think 8-4 or 9-3. First fight I think I had it 10-2 or even maybe 11-1z

    That sounds like the fight I saw. I don't think I scored it, but my impression was that Joshua had done better, but was still a class below Usyk who is a class act.
