Round-by-Round: Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk - 25 September 2021

[gregregegg]

If wilder chins fury then Usyk vs wilder is fun as fornicate.

[Gnome]

"Has he [Usyk] just announced himself to the heavyweight scene tonight?"

He just won the world championship ffs!!

[Lenny Cravats]

Fosters card presumably was a bit generous to AJ.

Tactics all wrong there. It was, when all is said and done, a good big 'un vs a good little 'un.

I didn't see AJ use his natural advantages in that fight. He tried to box a better boxer, even after losing the first 4 rounds - he didn't change his plan.

Incredible performance from Usyk. The man's a legend.

[milpool]

He’s walked off what a fucken pussy Joshua is

Its very weird on how he responds to losing .

he's finished, done

I think he's still got a bit left but that really has lowered his stock massively.

How much was the gameplan from Joshua's team followed?
It just seemed all wrong

Joshua is simply a worse boxer, no plans could save him.

[Crease]

he's finished, done

That's a big call...

But there is only so many times that you can hype a guy up... Watch him collapse.... Then go back into a rebuilding job again.

That's how I saw it, but it was obv something they had trained and planned for as AJ came in quite light

That was up there with the Bomber Bellew quote

[ShadrachSimmo]

Get it fuckn up you Eddie.

[deadpan]

Lest we forget Howard Foster, the epitome of integrity, had it by just 2 rounds.

[Ruthless-RKO]

[Cholo_cws]

So glad for Usyk. The tiresome talk of Fury-Joshua can be put to bed. Usyk wants to be undisputed so hopefully he'll have remained free to strike a deal to fight for it....after a rematch with Joshua presumably takes place.

True, Uysk is the better boxer-
So..
I thought his best chance was to bang Uysk outta there

[Crease]

That was up there with the Bomber Bellew quote

He's going home to his wife and kids.... It is what it is....

[brilo33]

after rd 1 min 2.33

[KiwiRider]

I hope Evander Holyfield was watching, he would have loved that.

[milpool]

I always felt Joshua would win in a rematch against Ruiz, if he fights Usyk again, it's the same result.

[Crease]

Eddie Hearn has told Buncey that there is an immediate rematch clause....

[margaret thatcher]

im sick of all these immediate rematches when a guy wins decisively

should be usyk vs the fury-wilder winner next for undisputed

instead we're prob more likely to see fury-wilder 4 and usyk-josh 2 or something

[Boxerbeetle]

I thought they ended the 12 slightly early btw, just in case Joshua went down.

[Finkel]

6 seconds early I think, with Joshua sat on the ropes

[Crease]

He will sign with DAZN and follow Eddie... Eddie probably has an immediate rematch clause....
It will be set for late Jan/early Feb... Wait and see...

My prediction will hold up...

[ShadrachSimmo]

It’s astounding the same human being gave Campbell Hatton more than 1 round.

[KiwiRider]

Unless he goes all guns blazing he isn't going to outbox Uysk like he did fat Andy
