      Thought it was tighter than the scoring suggested, usyk is one tough b***ard and a bloody good fighter.

      Scoring was absolutely fine tbf. 116-112 isn't really a wide score when you think of it, it's a 1 round swing away from being the closest you can to a draw.

      Fury was better in the first fight.

      The poll on the main boxing forums mainly have it for Usyk.

      People just don’t learn with Usyk.

      Once again the pre fight predictions article on BBC was full of ‘experts’ and boxers backing Fury but Usyk showed them up again.

      All the pre fight talk from Fury saying what he was going to do to Usyk,plus all the childish name calling,so glad the gobs***e got beat.

      You can have 10-10 rounds so it isn't but that's the score I got too regardless.

      Concerned for Tyson's welfare now, where does he go from here? When you put everything you have into an event and fail it is a devastating psychological blow. AJ lost it after the second defeat to Usyk, when you have bipolar in a community that will admit no weakness it can only be worse.

      You can but championship fights are usually scored on a 10-9 must system, incredibly rare to have an even round unless you have a point deduction.

      Usyk needs to be taken out in the first 5 rounds before he gets his second wind.

      Got to actually hurt him, then put him away.

      Only one to come close so far was Daniel Dubois

      Think those 2 fight. Would like to see it happen at Wembley.

      Ali, Foreman, Holmes, Frazier, Lennox Lewis etc,
      Usyk wouldn’t even be in the Top 10.

      I'm sure the £60m will go some way to comfort him.

      Usyk not getting the respect he deserves because he ain’t American or a British fighter..

      The guy is solid as… live to see him have. rematch fight Dubois either here in the UK or Vegas.. Saudi just doesn’t have the appeal other than the lure of riyals..

      Easy to say, yet Usyk still champion and  unbeaten, he'd give a few of the above a battle with his fighting style.

      Usyk is the best boxer at any weight in the world, or at least top two. He's got absolutely everything, and he would be a challenge for any heavyweight in history.

      It was pretty easy for Uysk

      Fury was poor , too heavy and cumbersome

      Clinical from Uysk but the fight was boring , atmosphere was awful

      Get these fights back to the stadium or the historic venues in the US

      .....& Dubois.

      Gone after the 2 top guys #1 and #2 in the division and despatched both, twice.

      Undisputed at cruser, undisputed at heavy. You can't fault it.

      ;D a cruiser weight against real heavy weights who could box.

      You started watching boxing in the last few years?  😂

      Not a glowing list

      Usyk wouldn’t last against some of the top heavyweights seen over the past

      Lewis
      Tyson
      Holyfield

      To name three in modern times

      Its not a great era for heavyweights at the moment

      But right now he is at the top
