9-3 Usyk.

117-111 Usyk.

[Mark TKO]

A boxing class apart.

Can't see Usyk troubling fury or Joshua. Just not big enough.

UD Usyk.

[Beanz]

Hope Del has invested well, he can't keep getting hit despite seemingly loving it and acquitted himself well, so no shame in finishing mostly intact.

Usyk seemed genuinely to struggle against the size and sapping power of what, let's be honest is not a hard hitting Chisora.

He is questioning himself and that ain't a great start.

[Vendettos]

Have it right.

He won a close UD against an aged opponent (albeit in shape) who has a lot of miles on the clock.

Chisora can punch of course but he isn’t a huge hitter.

Usyk doesn’t have anything for Wilder, Joshua, Fury or even White who is a better version of Chisora.

I’m not impressed by his debut in HW.. he’d have had to boss this fight for me to be convinced he can do anything up at this weight.

Yea. He is just not powerful enough for the big boys. Chinning Bellew is one thing, but chinning even David Price is a whole other thing... lolol...

Usyk needs to hire a nutritionist and get back to CW.

Well surely usyk has won that... But I don't know, chisora really had him in trouble early on, he was not enjoying it all, complaining to the ref and using a lot of energy to get away... He also likes to do bugger all for the first few rounds and chisora had him firing back early on. Usyk doesn't look to have the power to keep these big tough gits off him and he's 33 when will his legs start to go? He really needed them here. This was against a fellow who's is good but has lost 8 times previously and is 37 in two months...maybe usyk will find it easier v taller guys who won't be able to attack the body quite so easily and there will be good heavyweights who will match up style wise better but I think usyk isn't becoming a real champ at heavyweight, great career for him though.

I think Chisora is the worst style match up for Usyk. A HW with a ton of heart that is very aggressive. Someone like Whyte would probably trouble Usyk a lot also. I actually think that he would have an easier time with AJ because he won’t come forward

You are probably correct although surely the opposition will have watched this and seen a pretty good game plan of how to beat usyk.

I hope usyk does go on to be the champ though.

[palmerq]

Usyk would make wilder look very bad, I think we're getting carried away now

Agreed. People forget that Wilder weighs as much as Usyk and Usyk is 100 times the boxer that Wilder is

Usyk may not have a huge punch but those jarring sharp combos can work well on that physical and mental tightness one fight removed from the roof collapsing. Chisora much more relaxed and 'excepting' the fact he was going to get touched up. Usyk better invest in some sit ups though he was definitely bothered.

[Alpha]

A good fight for Usyk to shake some rust.
