5 rounds to 3 Rico Verhoeven
His awkward timing is throwing Usyk's game off. Usyk can't figure him out.

Usyk looks heavy and weary, like the first spar back in camp.

What was ref saying to Rico there
"We need to take a point from you soon, you're not allowed to win this fight."

Rico is doing what Fury should've done. USING his size and strength. He's not backing away from the smaller man. He's pressuring him.

Usyk has been spending too much time with Joshua lately.
Hes forgotten how to box.

Usyk unfortunately looks completely shot, but this is still very impressive from Rico so far. And Peter Fury is the kind of trainer Ben Davison, Don Charles and Andy Lee probably dream of being.

Gonna be a draw or a split/majority decision.

Hard to see the pattern of this changing much now.
I was bored in the build up and put a solitary pound on the draw at 50/1!
Wishing I had gone a tenner right now!

It’s a close fight but it really shouldent be. Unless I find out he has the flu or somthing Usyk needs to retire…
Unless he has bet 100 million on Rico.

Usyk looks a bit shopworn here. Something not adding up about the big lads engine.

honestly Usyk retiring would unclog the division's belts. Verhoeven the laxative we needed but didn't expect

Will Rico fight again?
With this performance, he’d give many a good fight.

Worst 10th round of Usyk's entire career? German DAZN crew think so.
