It's crazy to me that the level Makhmudov is fighting at and he only has one game plan. You'd think his trainers would force him to has some other strategy. Maybe he's just too stubborn.

Tyson vs Joshua next.

Joshua isn't going to walk the fight like Usyk did. Guess he wants to slur into retirement.

Dude is going to have a big ol' 1 next to that 50 on his record soon. He is fighting Manny in September. That is how broke Mayweather is now.

Usyk got destroyed so the ref called the fight off for him first chance he had in the 11th.

The scorecards were equally egregious.



Notice how all three are in the same handwriting.The fix was in no matter how the fight ended.

Usyk was going to get him in the 12th, but that was a bad performance. Might be time to hang them up, or maybe have a serious training camp. Usyk looked fat, and I believe he's 39 now?

Rico looked amazing, 15 yrs of boxing training with Peter Fury definitely paid off. Rico needs to keep boxing, it'd be a shame to not see him in some more really big boxing matches. Apparently Rico said he'd be in numerous Tyson Fury camps, and kept getting his ass kicked, but would just keep showing up and getting better and better.

I need to get on whatever PED stack Rico is on, dude is an animal.

Reminded me of the Tyson Fury vs Wilder incident where Fury didn't answer the count. Robbed of a KO and a victory.

Refs have fucked with championship boxing severely over the past 10 - 15 years.



At least there is a solid argument Usyk was going to put away Verhoeven in the 12th so it's not "that bad" he called it after the bell. Whereas Fury was fucking knocked out and given 20 seconds to recover.

I understand that. But starting the count again once Fury is on his feet is some weird pacing.
