Usyk won clearly. Fury came back into it & levelled it by the half way point but he was having to work at a faster pace than he’s used to & couldn’t maintain it. He had to hurt & do some serious damage to Usyk in the first half of the fight to slow him down but couldn’t. Hopefully Usyk gets the respect he deserves now.
Great scrap. Swung both ways. But the 10-8 round made the difference. Delighted for Usyk. Interesting to see how Fury reacts. Seemed very respectful in the aftermath until he got on the mic. I’m the biggest Fury fan, but you didn’t win that one kiddo.
I hope Usyk retires now. Greatest cruiserweight & heavyweight of this era. Nothing left to prove. He’s 37. All he does by carrying on is eventually getting beaten by someone inferior.
You clearly do if you think that is quality heavyweight boxing....neither would last more than a couple of rounds against the real quality in the division in years gone by...a fat big bloke who can't take a punch against a blown up light heavy..with both puffing out of their backsides after six rounds...it was no more than entertaining rubbish.
Finally some common sense in sport, how can you claim to be a world champion when half a dozen also making the same claim. Unless another board springs up over night. Usyk world champion.
I used to be. But lost massive respect for him over the past 2 years. Him & his father has completely ruined his reputation in my opinion, which is a shame, because he is a beast of a boxer. Tonight summed him up for me when he started talking.
Apparently he wished people "Happy New Year" in the press conference. Wouldn't be surprised if he's suffered a concussion.
The amount of people in the ring at the end is an absolute joke and kinda spoilt the announcement of the winner in my opinion.
His dad should have been arrested, locked up and then deported like any normal person would have been doing what he did there.
Wouldn't surprise me if Fury dodged the rematch and called it a day. He's had his huge payday and he can go on pretending he didn't lose and was robbed.
Great fight very close tyson did well 1st 7 Then uysk took over. 3 years ago tyson wins that , i thought he looked old last 4 or 5 and years of notvlooking after himself out the ring caught up with him. I had uysk winning by one round but was close. Tyson should retire i think he has been entertaining and brill for the uk.
Fury can’t take a punch? You’re making a fool of yourself. At best you’re looking at the past through rose tinted glasses. Name 10 heavyweights that would beat these 2.
