Refs have good & bad days but for the most part I thought Reiss was a good ref. Now i haven’t watch much of his fights in a decade unless he is doing HW fights so not sure how good a job he did in those dights. The Arreola fight he talked about was an IBF eliminator against Travis Walker when...

Exposed? Maybe Usyk is just that good?...

I was cheering for Fury but I had it Usyk 116-112. 3-3 after 6 rounds. Fury had a solid 5th round but after that I only gave him one more round.

Well this probably exposed Fisher as another fighter who doesn't have much higher of a ceiling. Domestic level fighter at best....

This fight reminded me a lot of Wilder/Liakhovich. Sergei was supposed to be a step up & give him some rounds but Wilder put his name on the map with that win. Itauma did the same here as McKean was a substantial step up.

I had it 8-4 Usyk... 3-3 after 6 & 5-1 in 2nd half. Fury looked great in round 5 then Usyk just took over. Not sure why or how Tyson thought he won. He clearly lost the 2nd half of the fight. Dubois has no business being in there after quitting from a jab but I guess it would be for all the marbles...

It was awhile ago & I may have got rounds mixed up but pretty sure i had it 4-2 Fury thru 6 but 5-1 the 2nd half. Not sure what round i gave Fury in 2nd half. Maybe it was the 7th. I really would have to watch the fight again....

This article seems pretty anti-Fury. The rematch will be interesting. I had Usyk winning 7-5 with an extra point for the standing 8. 115-112. I had it 4-2 Fury after 6 & usyk 5-1 in the 2nd half with the extra point. Usyk adjusted so quickly I don’t think Fury was ready for it.

Dempsey McKean is already 34? I’m surprised he hadn’t taken a couple stay active fights down under since his loss to Hrgovic. I’m not really sure what to think of McKean. Itauma looks like a beast but this is a step up from the faded Wach. I really don’t know how good either Itauma or McKean is....

An article about Kingsley Ibeh vs Scott Alexander was unexpected…...

Chris Byrd had the same issues trying to pack on weight to maintain fighting at HW but he couldn’t avoid the punches when he moved down to LHW. Shaun George beat him…...

I learned not to bet against Usyk but he is 37 & hasn’t fought at CW in 6 years. If he gets by Fury why would he go back to CW? It has never been a good idea to move down in weight after fighting at HW. It didn’t go well for Roy Jones & Chris Byrd. They were never the same &...
