    During the fight, it looked like Joshua landed some good combinations with the crowd cheering for the challenger.

    In reality (and became more obvious during the replays), Joshua barely landed anything meaningful besides a handful of body shots. Usyk made him miss from start to finish and outclassed him in every department. Maybe the corrupt judges actually thought Joshua landed more than actually happened.

    I had it 117-111 for Usyk but 118-110 or 119-109 would have been okay as well.

    I gave Joshua rounds 2 and 8, which were relatively close, and round 9 which he won clearly. Other than that, it was all Usyk.

    I think there was a way to fairly legitimately give Joshua 4 rounds, but that is it. Usyk clearly won at least 8 rounds.
