So have concluded for me its a 50 / 50 pickem and as long as we get a better performance from AJ than last time then it will be a belter and good luck to them both .
I'm in the same boat. I don't have a problem with either of their fighting styles or out of the ring personalities so a good fight and a deserved winner is what us fans deserve. AJ would join the small club of 3x unified champions while Usyk has the potential to go on and be known as one of the best big guys to ever do it.

I’d had hopes for the women’s bout but Garcia was really poor.

Those 10 KO victims, god knows what they must’ve looked like.

That was quite impressive from Ramla !

Oppo didn't want to be there obvs, but she did what good fighters do to bad ones in quick fashion. Great finish.

Adam Smith 'He's going to rock this arena' , switch to cameras showing an empty arena . Money talks but it ruins the sport

Nursultan Amanzholov was one. AJ "sent 13 home" and similar stuff from the USyk camp.

Now that Saudi fight was a really good bad fight - terrible sub-woman's standard, sub-YouTube standard even, but lots of fun :clap:

Rivera clearly needed the youth and size advantage for this fight, to close the gap on Jack.

That's what comms are saying, but I don't agree. :maybe:

What's he doing ? slapping, running and getting tagged to the body...
