    The second fight was exactly the same pattern as the first.

    Joshua had a little more aggressive intent, and probably hurt Usyk more than the first fight.

    But Usyk won more rounds this time around, but did not actually hurt Joshua as much as the first fight.

    Joshua's endurance was slightly better, and his composure when under attack improved.

    Joshua performed better in this rematch, in terms of aggression and overall damage. The body punching and round 9 etc.

    Anthony Joshua was starting to get beat up in the first fight, this time around he was not beaten up.

    Out of the two fighters, Anthony Joshua hurt Usyk more in this rematch.
    questionable about endurance, he threw 100 less punches. He paced himself better

      Joshua was mimicking Usyk more in the first fight, and throwing punches with nothing on them.

      When he did throw on the weekend, those were big punchers. All of them.

        I’ve always felt like he fights like it’s the first time he’s put a pair of gloves on.

        Fury is infinitely superior as a ‘boxer’

        I had AJ winning 4 rounds out of the first 9. That was what most ringside had it and many ‘boxing experts’

        75% of the fight was ‘highly competitive’

        The last 3 rounds Usyk took control due to his phenomenal engine and relentlessness.
        What rounds did you give him?

        There’s no way AJ won more than 3 rounds in the entire fight. Even Sky cheerleader Macklin had Usyk well out in front.

        Aside from the 2nd, 9th and maybe the 1st as not much happened, I don’t see how you can give AJ another round. Usyk was out landing him and dictating the action.

          He's constantly throwing punches, but a lot aren't designed to damage. I think most of the time he's just working his openings. He touches gloves, he waves the jab, then suddenly he comes through. The punches thrown stat for Usyk completely overestimates how many punches he actually throws. Half of them aren't intended to to do anything but be waved at the opponent to see how he moves.
          This. His feints and punches are to

          I gave AJ the 2nd 9th and one of the mid rounds that I felt was “close” so I just gave it to him cause I had Usyk way ahead :lol:1
