Da*mmm - that was a great fight.
What I'm seeing - Usyk - superb boxer but a bit pitty-patty - his timing was off due to Breidis' movement ad h missed a lot - and saying that Breidis has great body movement and good feet but he is not exceptional in that department either.
Breidis - surprised me with how good his defence was. He came out fast first 3 rounds but slowly gassed the remainder of the fight like a tyre with a slow puncture. Good accurate punching but needs to throw more - if he had done that he's have won given how close it was. Maybe give Usyk some cr3dit because his body punches slowed Breidis down.
Going forward - this might have seen the 2 best fighters in the comp together - can't tell until next week - but how much will Usyk have learnt and how much will this fight have taken out of him? Probably quite a lot and not much respectively.
If Dorticus can box as well as Breidis but punches harder he may have the beating of Usyk - but next week first.
