Joshua is a very good fighter but last night he was beaten by a fighter who was levels above him and you are right about about fury aswell because usyk beats him easily aswell. The only way you beat usyk is by going in there and actually trying to go to war with him which again may not guarantee the win but at least you have a chance because outboxing him is not going to happen. Not very often you see elite fighters come around so make the most of it and enjoy. And don’t forget in 19 pro fights with his guy has unified cruiserweight and has 3 heavyweight belts .
Said the same mateYeah totally agree we need to see these fights made soon. To be honest at the end I still wasn’t certain Usyk would get the decision which says it all about boxing. I thought the Hatton decision was a warm up for a bigger scandal.
There is so much to like and admire about Usyk. I'm really not that arsed that my fellow countryman lost to him last night as I truly believe he isn't the boxer we're led to think he is.
I hope Usyk goes on and batters the lot of them.
The centre of the ring is the last place he should be against such a skilled boxer, the tactics were simple, he should of capitalised on a greater weight advantage (he trimmed down far to much) as he never had the boxing skills to trouble him, that weight will of enabled him to wear him down, thus fatigue beats Usyk!We were all sat round watching AJ's ringwalk and all said wtf. Looked totally unfocused, wanting to touch gloves with anyone and everyone and I just don't think he has that nasty killer streak required to be top level. If he has a rematch he should change his corner men as they gave him shit advice all through the fight. Just before the 11th, they said stay behind your jab and let him come to you???. He had the centre of the ring for the majority of the fight but didn't utilise it to his advantage

I would have thought, use the centre of the ring to stop him moving around and use his superior strength and height to keep him cornered and wear him down, but I'm no Harry CarpenterThe centre of the ring is the last place he should be against such a skilled boxer, the tactics were simple, he should of capitalised on a greater weight advantage (he trimmed down far to much) as he never had the boxing skills to trouble him, that weight will of enabled him to wear him down, thus fatigue beats Usyk!
Before the fight Joshua would liked to have gone toe to toe with usyk but after getting nearly dropped in the third round that went out of the window but the scoring going into the tenth round was a disgrace tbh as it was clear as day usyk was way in front infact I’d give Joshua 3 rounds tops and he shouldn’t jump straight into the renatchWe were all sat round watching AJ's ringwalk and all said wtf.

That's all you could here all night. Very annoying. He's regressed which is a shame but getting wobbled a number of times has clearly changed him. It'll be interesting to see a what weight he comes back with next time around.“Brilliant AJ, Brilliant”
No mate, that’s the complete opposite as it gives the superior boxer the room to move, AJ should of been backing him up, cutting off the space and putting 18 stones of weight all over him, instead, by fighting centrally, Usyk can dictate,I would have thought, use the centre of the ring to stop him moving around and use his superior strength and height to keep him cornered and wear him down, but I'm no Harry carpenter
Aj's problem was he thinks he's a skillful fighter with some power, where as he is a powerful fighter with some skills, he allowed the fight to be a battle of skills and lost.No mate, that’s the complete opposite as it gives the superior boxer the room to move, AJ should of been backing him up, cutting off the space and putting 18 stones of weight all over him, instead, by fighting centrally, Usyk can dictate,
Not only with his superior footwork but able to pick off shots, in and out - the culmination of punches is what hurt AJ, not power!
you not think Fury could use his size much more effectively than Joshua to take a points win?i said it from word go once USYK moved up he would win a world title. His skill level is way above the rest in this division. Not many has made the leap from Crusierweight to Heavyweight in the same style. Not many have Evander Holyfield , David Haye have all won the heavyweight titles off the top of my head but in the style Usyk won last night in AJs back yard too. I was thinking there going to rob him on the cards. but the right result was given in the end. IF Usyk fight the winner of Fury v Wilder to unify the division I think he is just too classy to be beaten. He will chip away at both and as long as he isnt caught with a bomb from Wilder he will win both fights for me.
