Still just doesn’t really move like a boxer does he Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How I whish for the days of a prime Tyson or Holyfield. After Lewis the heavyweight scene has been awful in terms of skill ,- set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones Usyk is blocking sound massive, though, think he just needs one chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Bloody hell this is the dirtiest I've seen AJ. Not sure if it's good or bad, head gone? Or the tactic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the tactic? Seems like the tactic is to hit the body and he just went a bit low on one of them. Don’t think deliberately dirty Worry is that he starts trying to launch himself at Usyk. This patient approach is working. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepyvillian Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 He's still trying to outbox Usyk. He should be using those extra pounds to his advantage. He's not going to get a close decision. Joe Joyce would be walking through those punches of Usyk's. You can't fight Usyk at that distance. AJ is like Bruno, doesn't fight from instinct.

I wish he would fight inside more and throw quicker bombs, I feel he wastes his natural assets. Much better though. Interesting fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Round 10 , I think Usyk will stop him once that foot eases of the pedal. No way AJ can keep this pace with all that muscle to carry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has no sideways movement, it’s all back and forward. The worry is that despite being a lot less busy than Usyk he still looks like he’s tiring a bit.
