Just watched the presser…

Usyk will have to put on a career best and up his game from the Delboy fight to win this.

AJ’s height and reach advantage along with his weight will go along way.

Joshua needs to win within 6 rounds or it will get messy in the championship rounds.

Usyk needs to do what he does best use his footwork and evasiveness.

Should be a great night and great undercard

Surprised AJ is so big in price, I'd have had him around 1.35 if not lower.

I wouldn't be surprised if this went the distance and AJ was outboxed but snowball's chance in hell of Usyk getting a decision in the UK.

Hi Pat

Hope your well. I don’t really trade or bet on boxing as much these days. Only if i see a 100/1 shot i like.

Looks like a bit of value on AJ.

And if it goes the distance it will be very hard for that outcome.

Remember AJ is 1-0 with Ukrainians

😝

I'm good thanks Rolla, hope everything is good with you.

I don't trade boxing either but should be a good night, one of the few fights I'd pay to watch

Joshua should be tad shorter than that. The leap to heavy from cruiser is big and Usyk didn’t have the power to stop a completely gassed Chisora in his only proper fight in the division.

I backed the draw at 25/1 a while ago. It’s came into 20’s now as I suspect people are realising there is a good chance this goes the distance. Joshua has become a lot more conservative recently and Usyk has never been a huge puncher even at Crusierweight.

Absolute travesty if Usyk doesn't get this decision but as its boxing I've laid Usyk at 1.11 just in case!

Joshua found out but I'll suppose he'll take the rematch.

Love this result.. always love to see the proper boxer come out on top

Don't have Sky Box office. But really wanter to watch this one. Both Olympic medallists. Both successful at their chosen weight. Usyk seemed the most technical of the two but I honestly thought weight, height and reach woud be enough for joshua. A victory for the art of boxing over hype?

Media reporting flurries of snow in Hell :lol:

Great fight though. Usyk looks like every bouncer ever when you're going up to a pub/club and one of your mates is a bit too drunk, and you're just hoping he's a nice bouncer and lets the group in :lol:

Its proven beyond doubt that Joshua's boxing skills leave a lot to be desired.

I though AJ's size would have been too much but superior boxing skills came out on top.

Epic performance

I was even more convinced of that after the Campbell Hatton fight!

I wonder how Tyson Fury is feeling.. he must be laughing and crying a the same time. The mega fight has just gone tits up!
