The Boxing thread

I thought whoever’s score card that is, is a joke.
Only two rounds to Usyk.
Nah.
That was close.
Fair play Rico.
Class showed in the end but that stoppage was piss poor.
 
Joke. He had 7 seconds till the end of the round and then time in the corner to recover. That said, what an onslaught by Usyk
 
That probably explains the performance somewhat.
We cry cos we lose a game of football.
Meanwhile Usyk family is hiding in a bomb shelter.
 
Absolutely livid with that. Usyk only won one round up until about round 9 and president of WBC saying it was level in round 8ish.

Premature stoppage which also pissed me off, but unfortunately the corruption is quite evident and was confident they'd give it Usyk if it went to scorecards.

Quite clear they have other fights lined up for Usyk and Rico winning would have thrown that out the window... oh what timing... look Kabayel has just entered the ring. Fucking disgraceful.

I thought he’d be blowing out of his arse in the second half of that fight but he looked great and kept coming forward.
Great performance.
He’d beat quite a few boxers going off that performance.

Bloke is a monster - clearly very dedicated and disciplined.

Good luck to him. Hope he makes some serious mone. He'd cause problems in the heavyweight division.

I’ve only seen him on YouTube videos pissing about with Eddie Hall.
If you think he hits hard you should see his kicks.
Like you said he’s a monster.
 
A very premature stoppage. I had it closer than a couple of the pundits but Usyk grasped at the referee's offer of the 'get out of jail card'. Not a good look for a sport I love.

Boxing has been fixed for years at all levels. It isn’t a proper sport anymore.

I remember watching Campbell Hatton ‘win’, despite clearly being bosses. That was the most obvious example of it being fixed at that level.

This tonight was always going to end up how it ended.

The sport is a joke

The most obvious example of it being bent is Taylor beating Catterall. It was absolutely scandalous. The sad thing is, Taylor getting the gift of a decision actually ruined his career, which is a shame as he was a quality fighter.
 
Not a great fight for Usyk and I do believe that age is catching him up but he is allowed an off night and still managed a way to win . Credit to Rico who fought a great fight . Would like to see Usyk retire now as he will go down as one of the greats .

Kabayel would beat Usyk on tonight's evidence.

Maybe he would but I doubt that we will Usyk like that again and tbh he probably just had an off night which he is entitled to . If Usyk fights Rick again j would imagine he makes adjustments and wins more clearly .
 
With the 10-8 in the 11th or 10-7 it was going to be a Usyk win anyway.

Usyk was overweight and not prepared as normal.

Until the 11th it was touch and go.
