That was about as one sided as it should be. Absolute gimmick.

Shows how unprepared and unfocused Fury turned up for their fight.

That second blow when he went KO was kinda sad and funny. Imagine getting up with everything you have only to go down with the next punch you receive, haha poor guy.

Huni vs Lerena was a great fight, didnt see the full event so missed some fights

I've said it for years that when Usyk makes the step up to heavyweight he would clean it up and win the lot. Absolutely brilliant fighter, better more for beating that pikey clown who was disgusting in his post match interview.
Really pleased for Usyk and also for restoring some degree of credibility back into the sport. Hope fury fucks off back to his alcohol and drugs binge

Fury seemed to think that he was ahead throughout, and boxed it like that, but he is a bit of a prat.

Usyk is a tremendous fighter, and for him to step up and win against much bigger guys shows his quality. I just get the feeling and have for some time that Fury is a bit semi-retired and should have stayed so. He's risked his legacy a bit to make lots of money for his family, which is fair enough. And I'd imagine there will be another fight and so he can do it again.

Love watching Usyk though. He's an old school heavyweight before it all became about being a giant.

Absolutely agree - you put to paper what I was thinking.
I mean his fight with Ngannou should tell you all you need about his approach to his career at the moment.

Wilder has been a hot mess for a very long time.
Even when he was solely on Showtime he was cherry picking and still struggling throwing desperate wild shots.

Nothing like Luis “Kong” Ortiz at that time. Wilder was always dodging him.

Its funny how in his training videos against the pads this week people are like wow he can move. Wilder never even grasped the fundamental movements, still has no legs.

He was always about his massive shot. Once Fury removed that invincibility cloak all the doubts started coming in.

Zhang is a good fighter though, big and tough.

He was mentally weak, always making up excuses for his loss like his entrance cloak was too heavy and other random shit. Zhang has always had quick hands and power to back it up unfortunately for him he has no tank, so he will have a harder time to put better skilled boxers away before the 5th or 6th round
