These type of fights make boxing look so bad

Turki needs to drop his fetish for old what should be retired fighters. If the money wasn't there all these chaps would hang them up excluding Fury maybe.

Seeing old fat GGG ringside and that ugly ginger midget Canelo pandering for a payday disgusts me. Like a bunch of old men in a strip club ogglin young women.

 

The ref allowed dirty nonsense from Rico and Usyk was indifferent. He turned it up later on and Rico got dropped...only to spit out mouthguard for the SECOND time.

Usyk looked fine. The reason fighters dont fight like Rico because it doesnt work. Rico wasnt getting any power on his punches and against a more strict ref wouldve lost points for holding and hitting, excessive holding, headbutting or whatever its called for pushing your head against opponent.

But Rico did make Usyk "look bad" for those that couldnt see...aka casuals

 

Ya the awkwardness did trouble his own offense. Floyd and Kell had issues w Marcos and Shawn also. Hitting, smothering, tying up, holding and hitting...all w a ref who condones it does make for frustration.

People cry Usyk robbed Rico...its laughable. Dude spits out mouthguard twice and gets stopped for being pretty much defenseless.

Usyk isnt AJ and wont KO like Paul or Ngannou especially not versus someone so awkward

 

I can see he wasn’t generating all that much power but it certainly made Usyk hesitant and seemed an imposing and confusing style for even him to figure out or subdue until the knockdown in round 11. So surely it works to an extent, at least against the style of Usyk, which has won everything in the sport, often much more impressively than that? I would think the style he displayed is extremely inefficient and taxing on the gas tank, it was surprising he kept going considering he carries muscle upon muscles that require oxygen to be burned.

 

All pro sports are rigged, to an extent.
