    He deserves it, Joshua was poor.

    He embarrassed him mate, he could have stopped him if he wanted I think.
    I said from the start, if Usyk is switched on, then he coasts it. He's levels above Joshua.

    Mr humble storming off :56:

    Does Joshua get an automatic rematch a take before any potential fight with Fury is allowed to be made?

    Class from Usyk.

    Absolutely schooled him and gave him a beating that last round in particular.

    ATG performance, will be talked about for years. Not even close. Usyk was quality!

    Yeah I’ve never understood when people try to do this. If you’re the bigger opponent you may as well go even bigger and add more power.

    * boxing masterclass from Usyk.

    Just shows I'm a wee * and they know a lot more than me.

    All the experts were saying how good Usyk was, and he was phenomenal tonight.

    Joshua was *, robotic, slow, pish. But a lot of that was down to Usyks intelligence.

    Would Usyk have been offered a rematch if Joshua had have won? Don't really want to see a rematch- Joshua would just try and dully grind and clinch his way to a narrow victory. Think Usyk would beat him again though.

    Usyk is far the better boxer. Fair play to him for going for the kill in the last few rounds too.

    Sign of lack of confidence perhaps. Joshua always seems to adjust weight and gameplan to his opponent's attributes and physique. Instead of being confident in his own talent.
