    This fight has cemented the legacy of Tony Dosh PPV.

    The Big Apple Crumble on 1 June 2019 and the Tumble of the Humble on 20 August 2022 will be on Boxing Comedy Gold for future generations to laugh at for many years to come.

    Just watched it back. Usyk 116-112. AJ did as well as he could but there’s levels in this game.

    What did everyone think of the AJ's Corner?

    I'll be honest, Robert Garcia gave off the vibe that he was just happy to be involved in such an event. I don't think I heard him say anything after that time when he said you're winning 3 rounds?

    Very poor and so was his previous man.

    Billy Nelson gets slagged on here but a great man to have in your corner who can actually read a fight, motivate his man and provide good advice when the fight is going well or not.

    It reminded me of Quigg v Frampton, when Joe Gallagher was telling Quigg he was miles ahead. Until someone told him the Sky scorecards.

    The boxer has to listen to it too, though. AJ was talking all week about the gameplan, seeking different answers, etc. Usyk said right up to the fight he would do what his coach tells him to do - and you could see him listening intently and nodding after the first round.

    It's the difference between someone 'who wanted to learn how to fight' as AJ's meltdown revealed, and a lifelong, educated, professional sportsman

    If Rob McCracken was still his trainer, I don’t think we’d have seen whatever the hell that behaviour was at the end. Even Frazer Clarke said it back in the studio - someone, anyone, should have got that mic off him.

    Bellends like Sam Jones calling for a third fight. Lets just keep replaying it until Joshua wins.

    That was exactly my scorecard. Usyk up with 4 points. It's a mystery to me that some people have Joshua to win this fight ?

    I had it 6-7 points to Usyk totally ignoring the disgusting commentary bias from Sly Sports commentary.

    Joshua was mainly all plod landing the occasional good punch while Usyk was landing easily all fight.

    Corruption was a live player last night and if Tony Dosh PPV had a couple more decent rounds, then it could have been 'and the new'
