Nice interview, Steve. What are you hearing about Crawford vs. Spence?

That's a solid bet too. AJ looks scared.



I agree that he does as well. Look at the body language on him here. One guy has absolute confidence. The other knows it's the beginning of the end. And for the comment he made about Usyk being a lefty....... wow. "I would had smoked him if he wasn't a southpaw." Uhhhhhhh.

1. Usyk wins, but there is real money in something that goes Joshua's way, so Matchbook/DAZN can get one more high profile fight out of him (meaning what would then be the trilogy, because what else does he have} before they kick him to the curb.

2. Don't know what I saw from Teo at 140. Willing to give him the ring rust benefit of the doubt, but he landed a lot of clean shots, and they did nothing. We'll see, but power doesn't always move up.
 
Sh*t show of an event so far in Saudi Arabia. Between the clock issues, slippery canvas, trash atmosphere, suspect scorecards. Hope AJ/Usyk here doesn’t have any drama and lives up to the hype.

Watch them try and give it to AJ if this goes the distance.

I had it 116-112 Usyk. Better fight from AJ this time around but I think his same issues returned the second half of the fight. Judges (two) got it right thank God
