    Usyk was a clear winner for me tonight and I have seen much worse scorecards in favour of Brits.

    Usyk is the best fighter in the era at Heavyweight and now goes down as an ATG without doubt.

    Sorry to hear - that absolutely sucks. I was lucky - buffered for about 10 secs only once, otherwise all good.

    I want to give a shout out to the referee tonight, I thought he was absolutely brilliant, didn't take any bull****.

    Seperated them as soon as they held

    Warren: Fury was on the front foot all night and was only hit with a few solid punches. :duh

    Crawl back into your warren Frank, you are the TRUE rabbit.

    That was Jeff French I think who popped up with a question at the post fight presser.

    AJ/Fury wil now cash a huge check in Wembley.

    Both have lost a step. Fury's partying, drinking, coking, eating caught up to him. But AJ is also a mental mess. So the drama in the fight would be which one has the championship spirit to overcome their current problems and pull out a victory.

    The version of Fury from the two Usyk fights will stop AJ within 6 rounds it will be entertaining though

    It was closer than the cards for me but they can both retire now it's becoming boring and I wouldn't want to see it again but I suspect Usyk and Dubois will fight again if they do I hope Daniel beats him and sends him into retirement he'll have to KO him though as no one is winning on points against Usyk he's the Heavyweight Canelo going to have to KO him to win.

    I unsubscribed in 2021. I had the same problems back then too. They'll never fix it.

    Y'know, just to reminisce a bit, it's funny how when I first got into boxing, the big three at heavyweight were Fury, AJ and Wilder. Now the top guys are ones I've seen referred to as:

    A) A blown up middleweight/cruiserweight
    B) A quitter
    C) A fat Chinese man with stamina issues
    D) "Paint Dry Parker"

    And now they're seen as the top men, and there have already been two fights among them with further matchups a good possibility! Funny old world, boxing.

    I love it so much :D

    This isn't true. And the biggest myth in boxing at the moment and the biggest problem with boxing at the moment.

    A round is allowed to be scored 10-10. And a few of them should have been today. Anyone that doesn't realise that perpetuates the problem. A 10-9 round should only be given when there is a clear winner of the round.

    The must score doesn't mean that. The must score means at least one fighter must get 10.

    I hope the fight happens. The build up to it could be nuts.

    Both look to have physically declined to me now.. Fury more so.. shots looked sloppy , legs look gone, no power.. & i know he's never been body beautiful but he looked gaunt & has zero muscle mass under those rolls & shoulders, looked awful .. the first fight was better.. I'd retire if i was Fury.. that switch hitting HW who clowned Chisora & WK has long gone.. Still think Usyk has enough left to beat Dubois tho but hes noticeably slowing.

    Also back to the must score rule. It's become common a knock down equals a 10-8 round. Another big problem in boxing.

    If you dominate the round for 2 minutes and 50 seconds but get a flash knock down against you it's now a 10-8 round. However it should be 9-9.

    When did we forget the rules? Or did a few never learn them?
