Boxing: One disappointing turn of events after another.

This is very unexpected but why? Is this just to entertain royalty?

[IronDanHamza]

Funded by Turki of course.

I fear this guy will ruin boxing

[VislorTurlough]

Absolute Fuggin joke. ATG but an all time trash move by Usyk

[Coverdale]

Utterly pathetic.

[JakeTheBoxer]

Usyk you are a joke.

But I will watch Chisora - Wilder, Fury - Makhumudov, Yoka- Okolie, Wardley- Dubois.

Only these two I'm interested in.

You know what? Fùck you, too, Oleksandr Usyk. I thought you were superior to this kind of crap.

It should also be stated that this will surmise Usyk's one fight per year shtick for 2026, so don't expect any other HW to get a sniff of a title until 2027.
