Sign of a great fighter, 6 rounds in Usyk was struggling, so he adapted, changed, came again. That is what defines a great fighter, be it Ali, Floyd, SRR, SRL, Roberto etc, that ability to adapt in the ring. 'This isn't working so well, I need to change it up'. We always talk about who has the fastest hands, fastest feet, hardest punch, best chin, but you really have to admire someone who has the best ring knowledge. Usyk has been doing this for a long time & he knew what needed to be done. Just respect.

Simply incredible win for Usyk. No quit in him. He was hurt badly by the end of the 6th and completely turned the fight around. Wow and it was a very close fight. I had it 6 rounds each with Usyk winning it with the knockdown by a point. I could see how a judge had it 7-5 Fury and him winning by a point and I could see how a judge had it 7-5 Usyk and him winning by 3 points. Everything about the fight was great- the judges and the ref. The ref did an incredible job in the 9th seeing that Fury could continue and needed space to fall for the knock down. Cong**** to Saudi Arabia for a first class event. No shady judging. Both guys and teams class acts at the end except Fury's ****** comment about the war in Ukraine influencing the judges.Comment

The man's got nothing left to prove now. I'm sure he'll do the rematch if Fury wants it. But he's done everything he said he would do, and when he was coming in from cruiserweight absolutely nobody said he has a chance to do anything even close to what Evander Holyfield did. Well, he has. Different eras I get it but it's fair play to start putting Usyk in the same breath. He's a great champion and a dedicated man.Comment

Yeah his trunks were up around his ******* as well , the ref did him plenty of favors a long slow count gave him plenty of time to survive the round when it probably justified the ref stopping it , also fury got away with low blows back hands and head butts , Fury showed his character claiming he won and blaming bias due to the Ukraine war , classless family.Last edited by bender2000; 05-18-2024, 09:00 PM.Comment

That broken nose shot changed the direction of the fight and the hat w good fight it was. I love a fight with drama, and it ended in a close split decision. That’s what happens when the best fight each other and don’t avoid each other with the “if the money is right” excuseComment
