Hrgovic got his ass beat by a near 40 year old Zhang. Stop this nonsense.

No announcement yet.
I’m pretty confident Fury will beat Usyk.

It didn’t at all. It was an extremely close fight full of momentum swings.
I’m very happy for Usyk. Great performance.
At the end of the day, Usyk's superior footwork, ring IQ and work rate made the difference.
However, if Fury wants to win the rematch, he needs to take the fight to him and try to take his head off instead of fighting on the back foot (like Fury-Wilder 2) because he had Usyk in serious trouble in the mid rounds.

No...the fight was dead even up until the knockdown and then Usyk pulled away in the championship rounds just like he did in the Joshua rematch. Therefore, he CLEARLY won the fight by a few rounds plus the knockdown but Fury received another crooked scorecard unsurprisingly.

I had it 114-113 Usyk, I think 115-112 is a good score too. Close fight.

I've heard some crazy things on here, but Hrgovic... What are these people on. There's a reason Hrgovic is where he is now. He is at his ceiling. He's not being protected, because there is NO reason to protect him. Him, Tony Yoka, Efe Ajagba at some stage were all the up and coming ones, those two **** their beds, and Hrgovic is just... nothing. He has done literally nothing to merit any shot at anything.
He doesn't even own any of the **** belts!!

Fury looks in good shape and I think it’s clear the game plan is to keep it long. Usyk is quite selective with his punches, he can be overly patient like Loma, Klitschko etc, I think back to the Bellew fight and how it took him a little while to get inside Bellew’s jab. I’m almost certain Fury wins this fight by a boring and quite ugly decision.
It’s a weird feeling because I do want Usyk to win but I just can’t see it happening when analysing the fight.
What surprised me was Fury didn't grab and lean on Usyk that much. Fury was smart in a way staying away from Usyk and inviting him to attack him
There's no doubt size gives you a big advantage. Usyk is really the exception that proves the rule. CW's just never become dominant at HW. Weight difference is too much. Usyk is still very vulnerable at this weight despite his skill

In your opinion it may have been. The fact is the judges who’s opinions actually matter had it a lot closer.

115-112 sounds reasonable.Dr. Z likes this.
