    R1 - 10-9 Usyk (clear) - All class from Usyk
    R2 - 10-9 Usyk - It's a masterclass so far. Too much skill.
    R3 - 10-9 Usyk - Gassiev ain't winning this on points, that's for sure.
    R4 - 10-9 Usyk
    R5 - 10-9 Usyk - Usyk is an A-level guy. Gassiev isn't.
    R6 - 10-9 Usyk - The first 6 couldn't have gone any better for Usyk.
    R7 - 10-9 Usyk - Gassiev can't do anything with him.
    R8 - 10-9 Usyk - Gassiev sticking with it but doesn't have enough.
    R9 - 10-9 Usyk (close) - Usyk has the answers before Gassiev even asks the questions.
    R10 - 10-9 Usyk (clear) - Usyk - Best big man in the game?

    My jaw is on the floor. Usyk for P4P #1. This is ridiculous.

    Well, I knew Usyk had to be the favorite, but I really didn't think it would be this one-sided.

    Usyk wants to stop him now. That leaves him more vulnerable to something.

    Gassiev looking like Abraham 2.0 with his slow plodding style and low ring IQ

    There's a big difference in how the two fighters understand the dynamics of the left vs right stances, and Usyk's got his part sorted out beautifully.

    Seriously how can they play Coldplay poof music when Gassiev is in desperate need of being G’d up?

    120-108 Easy night's work for Usyk. Next two rounds are predictable, Gassiev has literally no game plan.

    I'm trying not to get to carried away with the language I'm using to describes Uysk's performance. Is he really that much better than everyone else or is Gassiev not quite as good as we thought going into this one? You really couldn't ask for much more from Uysk though, great performance and it looks like we have a star in the making here. I'm not going to get to carried away with his chances at heavyweight, but he'll be a formidable opponent for the majority of the top 10. Looks like he might be able to stop Gassiev if he really tried to, it would be down right silly to put himself in harms way at this point and should just coast these last 2 rounds to a wide points decision

    99-91 Uysk

    Usyk could get Gassiev out of there if he really wanted too. Like I said, as impressive as Usyk has been he's boxing within himself. If he starts opening up with those blazing combos of his and puts his foot on the pedal he can stop Gassiev.
