Predictions?
I'm going Usyk getting a KO in the 8th.

Usyk to win unless AJ has worked out how to close him down. He looked like he didn't have a clue in the first fight though so expect more of the same.

Nothing too exciting on the under card.
Callum Smith with a pretty easy win. Big KO.
I think there's one more fight before the main event?

A while yet. Round 3 of the last fight on the undercard.

I think AJ can do it tonight, if he uses his aggression and leans on Usyk early enough. It's a natural heavyweight versus an exceptionally great cruiserweight, Usyk is quick, and a fantastic boxer, but AJ should be able to bully him. His tactics were completely wrong in the first fight.
I'd be gutted for AJ if he loses, but wouldn't be upset, Usyk is a great fighter.

Saudi is an awful place for boxing.
Small corporate crowd, VIP and various Z list Royalty. No atmosphere and a pretty terrible undercard.

These two heffalumps have basically given up. They should reduce matches to six rounds for these undercard fights.

Hrgovic’s master plan of lulling his opponent into a false sense of security by getting punched in the face a hundred times worked like a dream.

Wonder if they’ll manage to dry the ring off properly after those two sweaty lummoxes waterlogged it.

I'm just not getting heavyweight title fight vibes, the atmosphere is shit. The box office commentators are trying to hype it up but I'm not convinced. Unless Joshua fights a lot better he's getting comfortably beaten again.

Usyks white jerkin is formidable.

Usyks white jerkin is formidable. Not as formidable as his miniature pony tail.

AJ always looks a little disconnected. Just something in the eyes.

How am I supposed to know what round it is without the ring girls?

I’d like to see Usyk fight Fury. Very different styles.

Better from AJ but still think it's Usyk's.

AJ gets a few shots but looks vulnerable as soon as he tries to press and gets caught lots.

Post by rawshark on Aug 20, 2022 22:41:21 GMT
Usyk is controlling this. So composed.

Post by Dougs on Aug 20, 2022 22:42:32 GMT
Yep, very unflustered.

Not exactly a thriller is it?

Post by Dougs on Aug 20, 2022 22:44:32 GMT
Nah. AJ is too scared of being caught on the counter.

Strategy seems to be to work the body. Seems like a small target.

THose body shots from AJ might win it.

Big round there. AJ should have pressed more.

Usyk looked a little rattled

Joshua can have this if he keeps the pressure up like in that last round.

Usyk suddenly looks fucked.
