    I might watch this one, is it on tolerable European time or this some overseas event?

    Usyk has never thrown a counter as powerful as the left hook that wrecked him v Ruiz and his right hook is not as powerful as that left hook, so it won`t be a counter hook that drops AJ.

    It's in the UK so will probably be around 11PM in Brussels. Another forum member @TSoprano created an app Ringwalks which sends alerts when fights are about to start. Works well for me, you should check it out

    AJ falls short with his jab as Usyk leans back

    he quickly whips back over the top with his own jab

    It lightly grazes AJ's afro

    DOWN GOES AJ

    Hes all over the shop!

    He couldn't put down an exhausted ancient Chisora even once so my guess is it won't happen here either

    Chisora has 10x chin and 10x stamina than bodybuilder.

    Maybe 10 years ago but considering Chisora has been knocked out 3 times and hasn't really beaten any good fighters it's hard to even say that. Joshua would have had this current version Chisora out of there within 5 rounds

    Great shout @_Scott_ - I wasn't aware of the app, but going to cop it now :thumbsup:
    Living in NZ is a gift and a curse at times. Lads will be round for breakfast on Sunday but this will be great for US based fights...

    When did Usyk drop someone of a counter last time? Usyk never had 1 punch KO power before so why would he all of the sudden have it now?

    I can see a counter right hook from Usyk hitting AJ high on the head making him do the funky chicken dance

    Usyk might be wobbled by Joshua's straight right.

    You forgot to mention that when AJ gets up, his corner chuck the towel in, which glances off his head and puts him down for a week!!

    Will skinny Josh have less punch resistance? One more downside to his new twinkle toes regime.
