I really struggle to see an even scorecard going into the 11th. I agree there were quite a few close rounds but I think Rico was doing the better work in almost all of them.
I had it 7-3 Rico going into the 11th.
I don't score fights but I thought Usyk won max 3 rounds.

It's a satirical reference to a conspiracy theory promoted by David Icke.
My English son in law informed me that he was the Son of God like Andre Watd.
I don't know who the lizard people are. I usually turn off the sound when the Brits comment. The barry guy is difficult to understand being Welsh, the Darrem guy is always along about "the variations", Mauro Ranallo screams. Manning and Mora argue. I like Gabe Rosado, Algieri and Paulie.
The stream I watched had three Brits doing the commentary. Copplinger, whose scoring was damned accurate, was the only US contributer to the telecast. All the pre fight people were also Brits except for the Dutchman Overeem.
The only thing theatrical and hysterical here is the thread title.
The boxing haters are ignoring the fact that Rico has been trained by John Fury for 14 years and has sparred and trained with boxers throughout that time period. So no, he didn't simply just step into a boxing ring for the first time

Rico is damn good but no, not elite. He's been training with boxers with Jo h n Fury as his trainer for over a decade. Damn good athlete, excellent stamina, can take a punch, changes his stance/arms/head very well; he confused the hell out of Usyk.
he deserves a few more fights but at his age he's got only 3 or 4 fights remaining.
And Usyk needs to seriously contemplate retirement unless he wants to end up like Joe Louis.
Official scores at the beginning of the 11th were 95-95 x2 96-94 Rico so Rico loses anyway unless he ko'd Usyk.
I don't score fights but even a blind man would have Rico up by 3 or 4 rounds.
No surprises here. Everyone knew that Torrez chin was made of glass since his amateur days. it was only a matter of time until someone broke it. american heavyweight prospects are a joke.
He wasn't hit on his chin.....got hit on the temple.
Ruiz is at the Giza fiesta. He's looking as fit as he can be. He's no longer a huge tub of lard.
he has very quick hands. I'd bet he'd land a few good shots to Fury's weak mandible.
I was dumb enough to attend the Paul-Tyson fiasco but at least it had a decent undercard.
I don't mind these sort of things as long as they are exhibitions and not a fight on your record.
Sure Usyk should fight Kabby. But in the meantime AK should be actively seeking fights. Usyk only fights once a year, is Kabby going to give up an entire year of his prime just waiting around?
