The **BOXING** thread (Vol 3)
Discussion
I think AJ would beat him, better fundamentals than Del Boy and a much better jab. Too many wild shots from Chisora that have left him out of position, seems to want to end it with one punch. He's playing into Usyk's hands.
Also, what's with Chisora's low and really wide hooks to the body, they look awful.

This is a much closer fight than sky have it. 8-4 usyk for me, with del still in it. Fury destroys this guy, AJ I'm not so sure....?
Sorry, typo. I had it 4 each going into 9th, then I bloody missed rounds 9-11, thanks sky, so I dunno, 8-4 might have been right, as might the 115-113 scores, somebody enlighten me. Del did well I thought, Usyk did not look like a master boxer, caught to many times for meDavid Haye is full of crap is my thoughts! Everything he says is fantasy land. They have done well with Chisoras conditioning he's never looked anything but close to death towards the end of most of his previous fights but he just lacks much technical skill. He's a warrior and has a titanium chin but he's a journeyman now.
Usyk I thought would have got him out of there I would agree that he's a way off ready for Fury as Tyson has equal technical ability and is freakishly fast. AJ might be another matter if he can work on his power. AJ just needs catching ad he's seeing stars.

What was Bellew smoking?
George Groves called it right - 9-3 and Usyk would have finished it in 7 with another 30 seconds. Sfter that he took his foot off the gas.
Just as I called it. A good workout for Usyk but no more than that against a strong Del Boy. Usyk knows he will have to do better. I can see why people favour AJ but AJ is not a great boxer. I would be confident that a match sharp Usyk would beat AJ but not Fury.

Usyk's power doesn't look exceptional, but I do think he has the potential to try and outpoint AJ and Fury in a similar manner.
Usyk doesn't have great support. I suspect tonight's PPV numbers as an example will be poor. So the money behind Usky will be relatively low. AJ on the other hand, and indeed Fury, makes a lot of people a lot of money. So the harsh reality is Usyk won't beat them on points. Neither will he knock them out. Taylor James said:

I think Usyk was somewhat exposed. A master boxer would not have had to fight the other guys fight, nor be caught so heavily and so often to head and body. Yes, he won, but not by the margin suggested on the joke scorecard, the 115-113 cards were much more representative. Styles making fights i still think his ring iq sees him outbox AJ, but Fury will make him look foolish. To small, to easy to hit, perhaps too old even, and I mean rounds and ring old. Great footwork, but he will struggle at heavy as I predicted. Intersting how we wee things differently!!George Groves called it right - 9-3 and Usyk would have finished it in 7 with another 30 seconds. Sfter that he took his foot off the gas.

I can't see anything other than Fury demolishing Usyk. Not that they will ever fight.
What business does David Haye have being a conditioning coach? Conditioning coaches spend years at uni studying this science and know what they're doing. Just making Chisora do some exercises he's done himself, or seen on instagram, does not a S&C Coach make.
