    Should have tried the Dillian Whyte southpaw tactic

    Smith and Macklin have decided Usyk's won - will be entertaining if there's a Catterall-style robbery

    Better showing from AJ, Usyk has still won pretty easily - just much more skilful.

    Try fighting 12 rounds in that heat at 17 stone plus couch potato


    Both have it there all. Usyk all wrong for AJ but they are both brilliant fighters

    Usyk has won but wasn’t the landslide Macklin is making out.

    Round 1: Usyk 10-9
    Round 2: Usyk 10-9 (close)
    Round 3: Joshua 10-9
    Round 4: Usyk 10-9
    Round 5: Joshua 10-9
    Round 6: Usyk 10-9
    Round 7: Usyk 10-9
    Round 8: Usyk 10-9 (close)
    Round 9: Joshua 10-9
    Round 10: Usyk 10-9
    Round 11: Usyk 10-9
    Round 12: Joshua 10-9

    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.

    Macklin is simply the worst biased pile of shyte charlatan - a disgrace to the commentary profession

    117-111 to usyk for me.

    I tight usyk knicked loads of the middle rounds, but they extremely close,

    Fair play to Joshua though, he had a good go. Usyk just has his number

    Usyk definitely won but it was competitive. High level boxing.

    Joshua did better than first fight but still wasn't good enough

    For all Joshua was better this time, Usyk barely has a mark on him - unlike the last fight. Joshua has a black eye.
