Comments Thread For: Usyk: It Was A Really Difficult Fight For Me; Afterward At Hotel I Fell Asleep Sitting Up

Yeah it definitely wasn’t an easy fight. Usyk will likely be in for a tougher time in the rematch also, but I expect Usyk will come away with the win again, I got a feeling it will be a KO this time around.

It's not a done deal that Usyk is going to win the rematch. I won't be surprised if he got knocked out. Upon all his flaws AJ can **** and he's technically not so limited as Wilder. What AJ was lacking most in the first fight is self-confidence. If he managed to get his confidence back and uses his attributes properly Usyk will have a rough night.

Falling asleep sitting in a chair proves nothing, I do it all the time.

Even with the excitement of coming up from CW to win the unified HW championship of the world?

Well you made it look easy mate.

I think a lot of people are only remembering the last 4 rounds. Before that the outcome was very uncertain.

Was very competitive throughout.

At the end of round 8 I had it level and Joshua winning 4 of the last 5 rounds. From memory I think the judges largely agreed with that. That's the opposite of an easy night.

It was a brilliant fight. It's just weirdos on here who like to say it wasn't close because they have agendas (or just don't understand boxing). It was in the balance right up to the 11th.

Not exactly... In certain sporting events the score does not necessarily convey the mastery one team/opponent has over another. here are some examples: The best World series I ever watched was the Boston REd Sox versus the Cincinnati Reds, this was 1974 or 73? The series came down to (what appeared to be) a close 7th game... Yet anyone who knew baseball understood that while the Red Sox that year were fantastic... the Big Red Machine was a better team. Another example would be when years back brazil beat the usa in the world cup... For most of the game? brazil led by 1 goal... yet there was no way the United States was going to beat brazil! and the game was not really close.

Usyk demonstrated that he has another gear. He never let the fight get away from him. He took chances hence, the damage he sustained... And when he had to do so? He took things to another level. I don't care if the judges kattie Taylored him lol... People who know boxing can see these "levels."

Uzyk modesty is quite remarkable and respectable

[Dasmius Shinobi]

I believe him, toughest fight of his career after Mairis Breidis

[Ricospider]

Interesting Usyk seems to be saying his heart isn't really into this fight, he'd prefer to be in Ukraine helping his people.
