Usyk a humble champion I had fury winning by a point but I am happy for him that he won

It was a great fight, 12 rounds of action and periods where one party bettered the other. Both fighters showed amazing heart, Usyk to turn the flow after the 6th and Fury to survive the 9th. Usyk is a magician and Fury really needed a corner on the ball to direct him. Busy corners do not work; Naseem Hamed demonstrated that with Oscar Suarez and Manny Stewart and an over bearing father can also be catastrophic; Ray Hatton ruined the relationship between Billy Graham and Ricky Hatton and this was evidenced by subsequent performances when Ricky struggled to find that bond, his relationship with Mayweather Sr was disastrous. Fury demonstrated between rounds 4 to 6 that he has the physical attributes and skill to cause Usyk problems, Sugar Hill has also taught him to load up on his punches far more effectively. In order to have any chance of beating Usyk he would need to be 100% focused and the removal of John Fury and all his family from his camp is the only way. Go to the States ; train with Sugar Hill for the entire camp and leave the circus at home. If he is not prepared to make this commitment he may as well not bother with the rematch as the result will probably be even more one sided.

Did I hear John fury tell tyson after the 9th round they were up big in the fight and not to worry? I swear I heard something like that. Delusional if so.

I used to really dislike Fury years ago with his obnoxious trash talk and insults but I have grown to really respect him and how he turned from self-destruction to a stellar boxing career. He's great for the sport and he has some more major fights ahead if he wants them. Usyk is 100% class and an admirable man as well. Great moment to see these two giants in the ring.
