Hard one to call. Hopefully usyk retires AJĀ 

No matter the result AJ will not retire.

To win AJ needs to bite down and go for it but I don't think he has the ability. Since been sparked out to Ruiz AJ is scared to be hit.Ā

He's trying to box too much rather than use his power to just smash cunts and it's no working šŸ˜‚

Pretty much! He doesn't have the skill to box. It'll be interesting to watch either way though.Ā

Spot on. In Joshua's mindset he knows he's vulnerable to a big shot, signs were there before the Ruiz fight where he got wobbled by Whyte, Povetkin and obv Klitscho altho he managed to find the firepower to finish them. Unless he manages to catch Uysk with a great shot, like the upper cut v Klitscho, I can see Usyk walking him down in the later rounds and stopping him. Usyk will be too cute and smart for him. A fascinating match up, on paper with his size Joshua has all the attributes to beat Usyk but this comes down to mindset and skillset.

To win AJ needs to be aggressive and use his double jab to keep Usyk off balance otherwise I think your right he'll be stopped late on.Ā

Staying up till 11pm to see Joshua get the shit knocked out of him again? How come it's so late even when it's over in that shithole?

I was thinking the same when it came on at six pm, I thought it would be around nine o'clock cause they're infront of us time wise, must be well into the morning they're time when it kick's off.

Mental although not as clear cut as that Hibs wanker getting the win after getting his head punched off against that English guy a wee while back, that was horrific.

Taylor fight that was an absolute disgrace.Ā 

Rematch in NovemberĀ

Aye mate fucking terrible, seen a program no long ago with that Taylor all about the build up to the fight and after it, he was talking and you could see even he didn't believe what he was saying, he said he was one of the best in the world pound for pound šŸ˜‚ total bell end of guy.
