I think it starts at 5pm EDT (US), but i'm usually wrong about such things .

Just saw klowdtv says 3pm ET. Maybe that's for the prelims. Don't know.

Is klowd tv any good @ $10 a month. What boxing matches do they show? I have no interest in threst of their junk.

Very one sided and lacklustre fight with Briedis.

Wow, Gassiev came back well in the second. Tough round to score, but I think Usyk edged it.

Not liking what I'm seeing. Gassiev is a notoriously slow starter, but Briedis was making the rounds more competitive.

This gets decided in later rounds once Usyk slows down and starts eating more punches. His punch resistance will be the key.

OMG! Just while I was thinking Usyk was schooling Gassiev, an effing huge punch. I don't think that would win him the round, but he's still dangerous for sure.

4-0 Usyk

5-0 Usyk, but could be argued for sure 3-2. depending on if you like Gassiev's hard, effective punches. Gassiev better start getting strong, though. Usyk had a great 5th.
