Prediction: Oleksandr Usyk by Stoppage
Result: Oleksandr Usyk by Stoppage
Apart from the controversial low blow it was a pretty run of the mill performance for Usyk. He didn’t have to get out of first gear and really just boxed well until the stoppage. As for the low blow I thought it was clearly low however if the ref started counting Usyk would’ve gotten up and I don’t think the result changes. It is clear though that the body is the way to go when aiming to hurt Usyk.
