AJ is like a plank of wood, so one dimensional, very boring fighter, Usyk oozes class
Joshua let's off a few flurrys here and there but it's just not enough or kept up consistenly enough to win these rounds
AJ's gonna KO him
Usyk hurt from a body punch, doesn't look the same
great fight
Usyk absolutely strolling this, I've got him up 8-3 here.
Usyk putting on a show, Joshua needs a KO
Commentators a disgrace. Watching a master at his craft and all they're doing is talking about how well the loser is fighting. Give the man his dues
just wasn't to be joshua
Arguably the best Joshua has fought. Just not enough. Usyk was incredible.
nice touch joshua
That judge though... Wow.
i really thought AJ would have got that :greengrin
Judge that gave it to AJ wants a word with himself
after saying nice touch joshua
i take that back
now he's wanting to fight the crowd
That judge who gave Joshua on scorecard needs investigated 😄
joshua's lost it
shut up joshua :greengrin
The judge who gave that to Joshua could referee Scottish games in his spare time.
Easy to know which one took the bung.Quote:

Sounded like a right prick
don't fight Fury Mr Usyk
Usyk is the only heavyweight that can give Fury issues. He's the better technical boxer, but Fury is so much larger it gets interesting especially given Fury is a better boxer than AJ.
Fury would do the exact same to Uysk as he done to Wilder, keep flattening him against the ropes using his 45 stane weight, 8ft height and 4ft long arms
i'd rather watch they two tonight than fury v anyone
no doubt fury will play even more games now, i'm retired, no i'm not, i'm retired forever i really mean it this time honest
Joshua’s a prick, always been a prick, always will be a prick.
Had every fight picked for him to make him look something he’s not.
Should be the end of him as a boxer. Donkey
As good a boxer as Usyk is, taking on Fury would be a step too far. Fury too big and skillful.
Fine example as to why his team don't let him do interviews, he's a nasty piece of work in real life always has been, has been duisgused as a poster boy by Hearn and Co.Quote:

Shown his true colours tonight. Embarrassing
i'd like to see Wilder v Joshua, after he's fought the big Fin Robert Helenius
You’ve never met him, probably never will.Quote:

Agree entirely.Quote:

Completely tarnished the very good things, and lets face it his career has some impressive highlights even if it was obvious to most of us he was never being a great, he’s done with that shameful nonsense at the end.
We’ve all had kickings. What matters most is how well you walk through the fire. And you embarrassed yourself there Anthony lad.
Harsh.Quote:

Hugely overrated by Sky and their commentators are disgracefully biased toward him. And he disgraced himself tonight. But it’s a lonely sport, he’s achieved a lot and deserved it.
the multi-retirer has his say
Tyson Fury, who holds the WBC heavyweight belt, has given his reaction on Instagram to Oleksandr Usyk's win and it's fair to say he isn't impressed with what he saw.
"After watching that, I can say that's one of the worst heavyweight fights I've ever seen," he put on his Instagram story.
"I would annihilate both of them on the same night.
"Get your chequebook out because the Gypsy King is here to stay forever."

But in terms of pure boxing ability, never mind character of will, Tyson rules that division. They want to be king, they have to beat him. And I just didn’t see enough in Usyk tonight to think he takes TF. Fury can dance like him but hit harder. Subjective, I know, all talk of future is. But Tyson Fury is a phenomenal boxer in my eyes.

It will take Fury to outbox usyk for him to get the credit he deserves. An unbelievable mover for his height, his head work is incredible. Really looking forward to it
Joshua has been a very good fighter yes overhyped, but you'd sack his promotion team if he wasn't. Usyk simply fantastic 👏
Fell asleep after the first round and woke after AJ’s speech and wondered what the pundits were talking about. Did he take some heavy blows to the head? The guys ****ed up!!
Feel quite sorry for AJ. Needs to take some time away from the spotlight
I don’t think Hearn covers himself in glory. He’s going on about the calibre of boxers AJ has fought. Surely that’s the point of him being champ?

Eubank Snr claiming he’s pulled Jnr out the Benn fight.
Headgames or angling for more money, he could never live it down if he pulled out of this one imoQuote:

Bud vs Spence looks to be booked. Probably the best fight in boxing currently possible.
Inoue vs Butler soon as well, although that's as much as a gimme fight as you're ever gonna get to unify a division. Where does everyone think Naoya should aim next? Outside of Casmeiro, there doesn't really seem to be anyone at all that could touch him at BW. Would have loved the 115 fight vs Choco or Estrada, but again, I think they would have been sizeable decision wins for Naoya, albeit brilliant fights no doubt.
Seems to be in a weird position, can't ever remember a boxer having such an easy fight to unify a division, Butler might be the worst fighter to ever fight for unified titles, and Naoya is one of, if not the most skilled boxer on the planet currently, and that's not even considering the fact his punches sound like gunshots. Seems to be a victim of his own success and talent. I remember seeing videos of him at 20 and thinking he'd be a world star, but he seems to good to promote fights being competitive at BW, so nobody takes interest in it.
Inoue will move up and fight Stephen Fulton after disposing of Butler.
It was brilliant see Inoue in Glasgow. He was tremendous that night.Quote:

I gave him 3 based on looking semi-competitive in the last 3, but otherwise it was a domination.
I will say, Canelo won pretty easily, but there was next to no improvements from the Bivol fight, and I don't think he looked great, despite cruising.
Spence vs Crawford incoming 💪🏻
Fury blatantly running from Usyk at this point chasing an AJ fight. One of the worst things about Boxing is the ducking and avoiding. It's the obvious fight to make for anyone interested in boxing, yet he's out here fighting the guy Usyk just schooled twice.
Yet another reason why Fury isn't, and won't be a great in boxing. Poor resume that could be salvaged by beating Usyk, won't happen though.
Usyk has said he doesn't want to fight until late spring. Fury and Saudi Arabia want a fight in December. That's why Fury is trying to build up excitement for a Joshua fight. It's the second biggest draw in the Heavyweights and he doesn't want to wait until May for UsykQuote:

Both men do, Joyce is an instrument of blunt force trauma, not the prettiest but gets the job doneQuote:

I reckon Joyce is now the most serious contender to Usyk and Fury. He is durable, fit, powerful and has reach like an orangutan. He just doesn’t seem to fight very often though. Surely his next fight is a title shot.Quote:

Fury yet again running from any competition. Withdraws the Joshua offer, ignores the Joyce fight and is fighting Mahmoud Charr. Waiting for folk to come along and tell me he's an all time great with a resume and best wins consisting of Wilder, Klitchko, Otto Wallin, Whyte and Chisora😂
Doesn't appear to be running from anything to me?Quote:

It's absolutely fine to not like the guy but think it's daft to say he's running form any competition.
Eubank v Benn fight week. Bit disappointed that Snr is nowhere to be seen. I was looking forward to some nonsense between the dads.
Benn tests positive for a banned substance allegedly
FFS I’ve spent a fortune on tickets, flights, digs etc.

They will try and get it under a Luxembourg license or something, the whole thing is shady as ****
Surely there can't be any legitimate reason for Benn to have Clomifene in his system?
I can understand why a female athlete might legitimately claim for a therapeutic use exemption but for a man it can only really be an attempt to boost testosterone. Absolutely stinks.
Bbbc cancel fight.
He shouldn't have been fighting if he was trying to get pregnant and had a problem with his ovaries tbf.
Can also be used as a masking agent for other banned substancesQuote:

Yes I'm looking forward to it too. Cant take to Shields. I hope Marshall knocks her out but I think Shields will prove to be too fast and mobile.Quote:
