    We don’t need to see Usyk v Dubois. There’s always an excuse and a what if. Joshua just needed to put it on him in the rematch. Fury needed to stop showboating in the rematch.

    Let Usyk get on with things instead of having to beat every Brit twice.

    He's incredible. Undisputed at 38 y/o in a land full of giants who hold obscene physical advantages over him that not one single fighter in the P4P top 10 has to contend and overcome a fraction of ever.

    Well Fury tried to taint the first fight by attributing to the decision to the Ukraine war.

    Warren virtually apologised on Fury’s behalf first time out by playing off Fury’s obnoxious comments off on emotion.

    This time around Warren steps up himself and bitches about the decision. Pathetic.

    Old honest AJ with the 115-114, playing it right down the middle.

    Like Fury said in the face off. It's easy to say walk him down and jump on him but it's another thing to try and do it. Usyk just tires you out mentally with his feints, non stop side to side movements, his unexpected combination attacks out of no where. If it was so easy to walk him down and blast him, the likes of Joshua and Dubois would have done it easily.

    Fury did all he could and Usyk handled it.

    I called Beterbiev vs Bivol a draw, and while I don't have any issues with the decision I think two definitive and uncontroversial wins over the lineal heavyweight champion are enough to swing this to Usyk.

    Was it just me or did it look like he was wiping tears from his eyes? Prolly just wiping his brow, but I'm gonna think it was tears because I find that idea incredibly hilarious. Still don't make up for not getting an AJ meltdown 2.0, but it's something :lol:

    It´s those Usyk feints and counters. You can´t pressure Usyk without letting your hands go, but when you do, you have to look out for counters. And you have to do so while Usyk is throwing constant feints at you.
    At the same time you have to respond to Usyk´s pressure. Plus Fury was clearly working to stay off of the ropes, which cost him a lot in the first fight.
    Like Bellew said: "He overwhelms you".

    So it was even after 6 rounds on all the judges cards, and Usyk won 5 of the last 6.

    Usyk makes fighters work harder than they ever have before, and then just outworks them down the stretch; it reminds me so much of Calzaghe.

    Same with Bellew, twice with Joshua, and now again with Fury; the only chance you have is to take it to him and force him into a war, crazy to think Chisora ran him closer than both Joshua and Fury.

    I have to rewatch this, normally watch it on my own and locked in, but tonight watched it with the lads, couldn’t have missed enough to make it that wide, but I didn’t score it on paper

    I thought he fought a smart fight for the most part. Usyk is just superior.
