Re: Usyk vs Joshua/Fury vs Wilder
I think Chisora is a respected gatekeeper.
Heck of a chin on him typically and a good honest barometer.
One of the questions that hasn’t quite honestly been answered is Joshua’s fighting heart and spirit.
Myself...I think it’s massively lacking and he’s relied upon his athleticism.
Boxing fundamentals typically beats pure athleticism.
The fall of Roy Jones Jr is the perfect example.
The size factor though is what is stopping me lumping on Usyk.

Without doubt he showed heart against Klitschko. Dropped heavily but seemed to know where he was and came back.
The Ruiz punch in R2 seemed to completely disorietate him. Seemed to be totally confused and just couldnt cope at all with Ruiz hand speed. Spat his shield out and gave the ref no choice but to stop it.
I dont think it was heart I think he was concussed and couldnt think clearly or cope with what was happening.

Agree with the Ruiz assessment he seemed confused. Probacant out that one down to heart but he showed it against klitschko.
I understand what you're getting at now I think.

Wasn't he caught on the temple? If that was the case it frazzles the brain and not many recover from that in a fight.
I think Joshua has heart but when hit he seems to take longer to recover as if his energy has been zapped

I think it was the side of his head. Round 3 not 2 as I said earlier.

Back of head and caused a concussion according to Joshua

Re: Usyk vs Joshua/Fury vs Wilder
Horrible knockout then in the Callum Wilson come back fight. His opponent went down and his left leg started shaking uncontrollably. Hope he’s ok.

Absolute joke. Can see Hatton getting better by the fights, but he lost that one.

At least Usyk now knows he won’t get a points decision at the Tottenham Hotspur’s stadium tonight.

I get what you mean, but he already knew didn't he, but its confirmation I suppose.
British fighters have been unlucky abroad as well, its a side of boxing I just can't agree with.

Campbell Hatton being on the card is bad enough.
Hes just no good and thats being nice.

Yup, that was a disgrace.

Re: Usyk vs Joshua/Fury vs Wilder
Joshua looks overly relaxed to me on the ring walk. Usyk looks focused. Joshua looks as though hes coming out to perform at a rock concert. Could mean nothing though.

1st rd to Usyk. Not much action though.

These adverts are doing my head in. I don't care about direct TV. I want to hear a bit in between rounds.
