    True though isn't it.

    Far more interest in that fight than this one. Not amongst boxing fans but the general public.

    Interesting, what is your yardstick for measuring intelligence?

    For boxers the measure is boxing intelligence .

    It’s difficult to call for me.
    But if pushed, I would bet on Fury stopping Usyk with a body shot.
    I don’t see Fury winning on points.

    I want Usyk to win again.

    Without a doubt . Intelligence is being able to asses a situation and make the best of it, better than the others in your field .

    I can't think of an easy yardstick to use in such a context. My question was prompted by a statement made and which I was genuinely interested in.

    Heart says Fury but brain says Usyk on points. Has anyone found a good stream yet? I am having problems with usual sources.

    Why people still scrambling around for streams in this day and age I don’t know.
    You can get a years subscription to a dodgy fire stick for Ł50.

    I had Usyk ahead but only just, the gap on the judges cards seemed too big

    Yeah agreed, 4 rounds for Fury seems harsh, I think Usyk just about deserved it though

    Great fight I thought.
    Nobody dominated any part of the fight as they both did in spells of the last fight.

    Harsh scorecards for Fury, but Usyk was a clear winner for me by work rate and combinations.

    Fury looked menacing early with his jab but that was it really along with one upper cut and a few body shots.
    Not to say that he was uncompetitive in each round because he was.

    Huge props have to be given to Usyk.
    Definitely an ATG that could compete with the greats of the past.

    I’d love to see a video of his footwork alone. How he could get in and out of range against Fury’s reach and piston like jab really is incredible.

    A joy to watch two heavyweight’s boxing at such a technical level.
