    To anyone slating Gassievs performance get real, he just couldn't do anything, Usyk was that good tonight.

    It's ok for Sanchez say "move forward, throw more" when he's being hit by 5 6 7 or 8 punch combinations even if they don't look hard punches it's easier said than done. Gassiev didn't have chance to act on his own plan as he was always reacting to being peppered with shots from all angles.

      Up to you to find out... I think it's from some guy's meme here depicting her as wonder woman... Thought it fitted well ... Plus I don't really agree with most of "her" behavior...

      All for fun though... She could absolutely spank my butt... :P

        Abel needs to quit being a media ho and start being a full time trainer again. His work with GGG against Canelo was just as bad as this

          Impressive boxing display by Usyk.

          We had to wait 12 years after Hopkins/Taylor to see another 4-belt champion (Crawford). We got our next one less than a year later thanks to the WBSS.

            He can fight Lebedev. In fact, I believe the WBA will mandate that fight as Lebedev is currently Champion in Recess. Bellew's also out there and he's the WBC Emeritus Champion at cruiserweight.

                Gassiev is a Russian national, but he is not Russian "by blood".
                He is Ossetian, which is one of the nations in Russia.
                His ringname literally means "Ossetian", since Ossetians call themselves "iron (ee-ron)".
                Ossetians believe they are descendants of Asi of Alans (Scythian-Sarmatian tribe), today they call their land Alania and their language is direct descendant of Scythian).

                Interestingly, by blood, Gassiev is closer to Usyk than he is to Russians, since Scythians are believed to be ancestors of Ukrainians as well. And Alans described by Marcellus look pretty much like Ukrainian Cossacks. )))

                  Agreed... Not saying Usyk could unify the HW division... just saying that of all the "notorious" up there, Wilder is the most "reachable"...Simple weight vs skill set math... I don't even believe Usyk himself thinks he stands a chance against the "skilled" 240 - 260 guys...

                      I think he can beat Bellew, Whyte, and Parker.

                      Joshua and Wilder might be a bridge to far.
