9/25 DAZN: Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk (WBA/WBO/IBF Heavyweight Titles)

[Apollo Creed]

Yeah he has to pick up the pace and maintain that pace. The huge irony is that if Usyk was bigger natural heavyweight with more punching power, he would be an easy favorite against Joshua... Joshua has problems with fighters that are light on their feet, move, and can punch. Joshua has a tendency to be robotic, predictable, and has slow reflexes. We seen how he was against Ruiz who had all those attributes

We will see if Usyk can take Joshua's punching power, as well as effecting Joshua at all because he's smaller. Cause that is the key to the fight

Usyk is the same height as Ruiz, not sure the reach though. Ruiz has some of if not the fastest hands among the top heavyweights and I think thats what shook up AJ. AJ was giving Ruiz that work until the ear shot, lol dudes always forget this

Think Usyk is taller than Ruiz, he has a longer reach too.

Joshua's usually col with his opponents, how you drawing conclusions from that
If Usyk's gonna win that's gonna be because he was better not because they took pictures
Some of you really want Joshua to be this tough guy stereotype who acts mean toward his opponents but he's just not like that, he's a chill kind of person, why does that bother some of you, lmao

Joshua got stopped by Ruiz because he was going too hard for the kill and got caught, fukked his equilibrium, not because he was too friendly or respectful to Ruiz.

Yeah he's only gonna respond, ain't really in his nature to start shyt unprovoked, and as you said whoever wins deserve full credit, both know this is a serious fight against a top fighter, best man on the night wins.

AJ just plays it cool..which is OK. I know this is 1000% better than fake beef tho.

All I know AJ is a pretty dull character and I think he do it for sponsor purposes. I feel like he holds his real feelings and personality back. Crawford got more personality than him. Matter fact that’s the main reason he ain’t as popular in the US.

Agree.

Different fighters all together though. Usyk left and right head movement and follow up (either exits or counters) is one of his better attributes too.

But as i keep saying, it just hasn't been as apparent at HW.

Hey, at least UK got top tier fights on the card.

Australia got Kostya son as the only draw they promote and he's fighting either has beens, bus drivers or bartenders.

If it isn't Kostya son it's rugby players vs bus drivers.

 

[krackdagawd]

I like both guys hopefully it's good fight I wouldn't mind if either win.

Yeah fair enough - it's just a bit strange seeing fighters taking selfies together before a fight, doesn't really sell me anything.

The undercard better finish early. Hatton

I get it but better than a fake beef and imo this fight already sold itself. Dunno about the US but feels like there’s a big interest in the UK and here in mainland Europe
