Absolutely, for the true boxing fan such as yourself you knew what Usyk brought to the table and you knew Usyk was a challenge Josh had never seen before. On another note, we concentrate so much on how Josh will adjust and who is training team will be etc but not many seem to be talking about the adjustments the high ring IQ Ukrainian is making. Usyk has felt the power, adjusted to the size, weathered the storm, soundly outboxed Josh and hurt him badly in the last round. You have to be thinning that Usyk now believes he can stop Josh l. We shall see….

I'll do it.
Hearn looks rattled as hell and is now talking about retirement, probably because his top HWs are about to get demolished by Usyk and Fury.
Connor Benn isn't going to save him.Comment

Well i really appreciate that, but really I’m just a casual, mate.

That’s true, what you’re saying is something few are saying, but then popular narratives tend to be driven through “the hero’s” perspective. Usyk was unfashionable enough to ignore before the first and he remains so now.
Having said all of this, and agreeing with you that it’s Usyk’s to lose, I hope we get the hell on with this fight. These predictions don’t mean **** till they get in the ringComment

You know what, though? Conor Benn might actually save him. Not saying he retires undefeated, undisputed champ or anything mad, but he’s got enough intensity, power and brings enough excitement to keep this Hearn fellow in PPV cheques for years, win or lose.
I only even watch him for the post-fight interviews.Last edited by P to the J; 02-04-2022, 05:51 PM.Comment

Usyk will be fighting to lift his country. Superior talent and boxing brain fighting with a chip on his shoulder? Unwise to bet against him. Like Wilder, Joshua was severely overratedComment

AJ needs to go in to this fight full bulldozer mode, risky yes but this is the only way he is going to beat usyk, he should also remember how bad usyk looked against del boy, usyk is a very boring fighter to watch, most people will watch him fight in the hope he gets splattered and sent to ko heaven.Comment

The thing about rematch clauses are the speed with which you rematch. 5 month's, still no date, still no venue for a fight originally pencilled in for Feb. There should be a time limit.
& credit Edward for fighting a manondo that isn't a shot 38-41yr old sat in the elevator waiting for a pension pot xD
No coincidence the last 2 he boxed of his own generation both beat him.
Until the rematch Aj still hasn't boxed a top 2 heavyweight (don't argue Klitschko) he was unranked though inactivity on tbrb.
