    He wants to start slow, cool You start slow too but just do a little more, you need something left in the second half, you can out work him early without emptying the tank.
    It’s definitely a recurring theme that Usyks opponents seem to significantly tire in the second half of the fight.

    It often looks like it’s not even a question of Usyk figuring them out, more his mental pressure gasses them so he’s then able to the be more effective.

      He's not hard to hit if you really put it on him.

      Hell, Shawn Porter already beat him in the amateurs.

        You're right he dropped him with a body shot at 12.04

            Joyce stunned him briefly hitting him backward which was his best shot of the fight but didn’t slow Usyk down ,he actually picked up the pace afterwards even more which is a strength of his he’s able to drain guys by out working them ,though those are 5 round fights so he was able to fight at the crazy pace he did .
