Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk for the Heavyweight Championship this AFTERNOON at 1:30 EST

[TruDat]

WOW styles makes fights Usyk
With Usyk taking the center of the ring, lateral footwork and concise jabs & counters been on point

Joshua better push him against the ropes with his jabs

 

[Chiyo]

Honestly this is the first round won for AJ. it was close too.

 

[slewdem100]

Usyk style is very mentally taxing for opponents...that Lomachenko school footwork is serious ..problem is first part of the fight was suppose to be AJ best chance... what happens in the second half?

 

[alexw]

Honestly this is the first round won for AJ. it was close too.

i gave that round to the challenger
AJ couldnt get out of the way of the right hand over his guard

 

[Chiyo]

4-2 now imo

 

[MacNeverSlip]

Usyk ain’t bouncing in and out no more. Too stationary now.

 

[slewdem100]

Judges will give all close rounds to AJ so it's probably 3- 2 on the official scorecard

 

[alexw]

AJ won that round

 

[bbuzzard]

AJ should win this...unless he's a buster

 

[Chills]

Got it 3-3 going into R7

 

[Shaka54]

This round for AJ

 

[Chiyo]

Power showing up now.

 

[TruDat]

AJ found his Jab and is pushing Usyk
Its fucking up Usyk side to side movement

 

[alexw]

Usyk dominating

 

[MacNeverSlip]

Usyk had a good 7th round

 

[Mack1052]

Best round so far

 

[TheFuser]

Usyk gotta KO AJ. There's no way in hell he's getting a decision.

 

[Chiyo]

Usyk got this round

 

[slewdem100]

Probably 4 - 3 on the official scorecard for Usyk unless straight up robbery

 

[bbuzzard]

Note Joshua shouldn't fuck with Fury...

 

[DiGeneral]

Usyk is working AJ.

 

[Chiyo]

Usyk gotta KO AJ. There's no way in hell he's getting a decision.

He's a cruiser. He doesnt have the power to end it.

 

[slewdem100]

He's a cruiser. He doesnt have the power to end it.

[Shaka54]

Usyk gotta KO AJ. There's no way in hell he's getting a decision.

So far, I'd say that about both of them.

 

[O.J PIMPSON]

Roy on Joshua dick!!!

 

[Chills]

Joshua's jab can be that difference but gotta keep throwing it... i got it 4-4

Those body shots too are wearing Usyk down

 

[alexw]

Usyk easily wins the 9th
on my card, AJ needs a ko to win
but theyre in london so he's probably getting some gifts

 

[O.J PIMPSON]

Usyk got that round to me

 

[Shaka54]

Is Usyk waning or is he conserving his energy?
