    I've got Usyk up by 3, AJ better than I thought he'd be, still can't see him winning tho.

    Joshua has never really been at this level. 

    He's a good fighter that has never been a great one. 

    Usyk is great.

    AJ hanging in there, but needs to be less hesitant now.

    Pathetic the canvas has needed wiping in 3 fights.

    AJs only chance roughing Usyk up, but AJ just isn't as good

    Once Joshua showed frustration when he misses shots, Usyk knows he's got him. 

    Can't see much different from the first fight now. 
     Nah AJ looks more assured. This round will be the teller. He dropped off fitness wise earlier than this last time.
    The fitness isn't really an issue. Usyk is just far better and it's very one-sided, has been for at least 2/3 rounds now.

    That was much, much better.

    Then ruined by some wild shots.

    Great round. Though replays show a lot of glanced/blocked blows.

    I haven't given Joshua a round so far, you could argue for a share of that last one given the finish but he wasn't landing a lot clean. Think Joshua has looked knackered since the 6th

    Joshua did really well that round. 

    Shout out to the ref for letting Joshua hit Uysk round the back of the head multiple times to hurt him. Great work.

    Both looking ropey despite the commentators saying how 'comfortable' usyk looks. 

    He's definitely better but he's being rocked now too. That was typical AJ back off after being hit.

    AJ gone now, think it's over next round.

    Joshua punched himself out as usual. 

    Then forgets defense when gets caught.

    AJ wins on points. I can see that shit happening

    Okay Usyk much quicker again this round.

    They're both hurting.

    Really? He just took an AJ punch full pelt on the chin and came back 5 seconds later and started boxing his head off again. AJ has done well but I don't think usyks got out of second gear

    Joshua has won maybe 2 rounds since the 3rd. So if he wins on points it would be a travesty.

    Joshua needs to follow his good shots.  He hits one then stops to see if it's done damage.

    Never out of the question with how corrupt this sport is.

    Too scared of the counter to throw combos.

    What a whimper. 

    Pathetic last round.
