Comments Thread For: Manager: Usyk Was Only at 60-70%, He Can Really Be Better in Joshua Rematch

Usyk for the ko this time!!

Na..Aj is a bum and all,but Usyk was def fighting at 100

this. usyk looked a lot worse against chisora. i think we seen at his age and weight, the absolute best usyk can do at heavyweight.

Usyk still growing as a Heavyweight and we know Joshua will put in the work.

I think both will improve. Usyk should be favourite. But I'd love Joshua to prove everyone wrong. Not least because I think he'll try to make the fights that matter.

I wonder what sort of credit he would get on here if he won? It should be huge.

Joshua would get no credit if he wins the rematch they will say that Usyk struggled against Chisora and obviously Joshua just had a bad night and lost to a little cruiser and he needs to ko fury to get any respect

Seen it all before.

First of all Joshua has to come to fight and not box…. Second of all he has to fight like a man not a scared little b.itch! If he can do both of these things..: come to fight like a man…. Usyk has no chance… if he is going to come in hesitant trying to box and when he realizes (again) that he can’t outbox usyk then tries to fight like a b.itch then he is meatloaf! Usyk will eat that sh.it up all day! AJ, hear me out son… throw caution to the wind and from the first bell… just throw bombs all fight king get this man out of there in round 1!!!!

The REMATCH will be completely different than the first fight but will prob have the same outcome

Hopefully AJ can somehow figure out how to summon his inner George Forman & drops that "Passive" style.

It's hilarious how he went from 0 to prison ****. Out of nowhere.

Usyk has mentally broken the Joshua fan base.

I know right..you can tell dude been missing all the gay bars with the recent surge of Covid variant..that was more frustration on his part it seems like

[Boxing Logic]

I lean AJ in the rematch. $$$$

Joshua has too much muscle to beat usyk, he will need to lose about 10 to 20 chances to beat him plain and simple, all the muscle takes energy he is muscle bound. Apart from that styles make fights and AJ just makes usyk look good unlike chisora.

Like Lapin said, Usyk processes information at an amazingly quick pace, boxing IQ is through the roof. It’s also the reason why I’m picking Joshua in the rematch. Given Joshua’s LACK of ability to immediately react to what’s in front of him, he’ll have more to gain that Usyk in having a 12 round look at his opponent and an entire training camp to plan to follow.

Simply put, the first fight was close, and AJ has more potential for improvement.

I don't know where he is plucking this 60 to 70% from. It sounds kind of specific, but it is really just a way of saying he has a vague sense that Usyk can do better. It's possible, I suppose, but there is no question that Usyk had his best performance as a heavyweight in that fight. Joshua looked in good shape but really didn't fight to his strengths. Part of that, no doubt, is down to Usyk's abilities, but part of it I think was simply down to poor strategy from Joshua's team.

I thought the fight was closer than most others -- I thought Joshua was having some success in the middle rounds -- but there is no doubt that Usyk turned it on in the championship rounds and had Joshua hanging on at the end.

With his punching power and reach advantage Joshua still has a sizeable chance of getting the belts back. At the same time, he is fighting someone with a great engine, a very tough chin and superior ring IQ, so it's not going to be easy.

My man that was an ashhh whopping. You are not supposed to have fun in a heavyweight fight. Here, go look up just before the fight started what his manager said, or find it and then watch the fight. He literally told us what was about to happen to Joshua. Lots of y’all missed usyk paying tributes to other hw champions. That man imitated five different champions in that fight like an homage, old head pointed it out to me. Let’s just say once you go back and see what they said was gonna happen, happen damn near word for word while trolling the reigning champ. He didn’t just beat Joshua, he whipped his ashhhhh.
