This guy is supposed to challenge AJ and Wilder?

Who? You're talking about 6'4 230lb Szpilka who could hardly land anything but a handful of punches?
Usyk was getting nailed by Bellew's right hands lol, he got hit waaaay more than Wilder ever did againtst Szpilka.Comment

So after two and half rounds of really fighting he broke Bellew. LOL, okay bro good story on how Usyk was bailed out.Comment

It was a full 5 rounds, that's close to half the fight Usyk was losing. Bellew crumpled because he's not a natural cruiser, his body looks soft as **** lolComment

That's one way of looking at it...another way is bellew was only competitive with a usyk's first gear. He landed some good right hands, but usyk made adjustments and started catching him. The fight had a "matter of time" feel to it...usyk would start to pull away, and that's exactly what happened. If bellew didn't get stopped, he was in for a beating.He was down on all the cards until the 5th where at the very end of the round he landed a big left hook that hurt Bellew. Up until that point he was getting nailed with repeated right hands, body shots, couldn't close the distance, could barely land his go-to jab, etc.
Bellew crumpled as soon as he started to get hit and gassed very fast as well. This wasn't even Bellew at his best.Comment

What do you mean "really fighting", Usyk was trying to fight the first 5 rounds and was getting out boxed. It took Bellew getting careless at the end of round 5 to get hurt and he eventually gassed. I know, shocking that a 35 year old that hasn't made cruiser in 2 years gassed. Like I said this was the worst version of Bellew in years.
Even Stevenson stopped Bellew faster than Usyk did and actually dominated him unlike Usyk.Comment

He's literally a career LHW lmao, he didn't even look like a boxer when he weighed 213lbs, looked like some guy off the street:

Usyk actually rehydrates to around what Bellew weighed in that pic, Bellew doesn't rehydrate at all.Comment

Exactly. The real action began in round 3. At which point Usyk starting taking control. This is such a silly discussion.That's one way of looking at it...another way is bellew was only competitive with a usyk's first gear. He landed some good right hands, but usyk made adjustments and started catching him. The fight had a "matter of time" feel to it...usyk would start to pull away, and that's exactly what happened. If bellew didn't get stopped, he was in for a beating.Comment
