I will say this though, Usyk is finding Heavyweights a slightly diffrent kettle of fish to the Cruisers.

 Should be a UD for Usyk

But judging by the judging lately it'll be a split decision to either

Been a good fight. I think a lot of what Chisora is doing has just fallen short or hit the arms, but you never know, judges might see it differently.

Me neither.

That was the perfect fight for Usyk, to improve as a heavy.

If Terry O'Connor is here 119-46 to Chisora !

Usyk has won this 2-3 rounds anything else is disgusting.

I think what this fight has shown is that the better and bigger Heavyweight's could walk down Usyk. He will need all his technical skills and footwork to do a job on the likes of AJ or Wilder never mind Fury.

I would struggle to find more than 4 rounds for Chisora but I could see how a judge might disagree.

Thought Chisora fought as well as he could. Usyk 8-4 for me

Usyk has fluid movement but he's not as big as AJ, Wilder and Fury nor does he have their power.

Beats Wilder for me, not sure about Joshua, and he needs to take out a restraining order against Fury.

Fair play to Chisora. Before the fight I wouldn't have thought he'd make the distance, it was early rounds or nothing. He made it.

Usyk, hmmm... he was in control, but never really wobbled Chisora, not sure whether it was his hand, or didn't go the extra gear or simply didn't have the power at this weight.

The likes of Fury and Joshua would have no trouble with Usyk or Chisora. Neither would really hurt them

It's been good to see this fight but the gulf between the best and those lower down is large

I said to my dad earlier Usyk might be too small for HW Fury/Joshua.

I think styles wise that Joshua might still be a good fight for him. He made Chisora miss with some wild stuff and AJ does have a tendency to punch himself out. Also Joshua wants to fight at a more comfortable distance.

Fury would be too big, too strong and too ugly. He'd just lean on him in a corner and shut him down.
