Usyk on top of the world
Well there are few things to say. He did what he had to do, continuous movements, constant initiative, put back shots and series, took devastating blows. Certainly at a spectacular level fantastic, very few clinches, lots of movement. Ole never gave the idea of being dominated, on the contrary he gave the idea of always being able to control the champion with that fast jab, stantuffante which were followed by shots from unusual angles. Ole, reproduces the pure technique made person, constant movements to not give target, and blows brought at the right time, at the third AJ has risked a lot…. The point was that the champion, has never given the idea of being able to control the match, to administer the fight, has brought some good shots Ole was marked, clearly after twelve rounds, but has never given, I repeat, the idea that he had in hand the reins of the match; rather it was always chasing, and we had to wait many minutes before seeing him assigned a shot, I do not know, as if he had a mental breakdown, caused by the movements of Ole from the blows brought, with a simplicity linearity and spectacularity that befit a man who has made history, I do not remember cruiser that have risen and have won four belts. But having said that. what was really incredible was the pace, an amateur pace at which in some moments AJ seemed not to believe, what a fantastic match, the first rows will have enjoyed a great show, live incredible, unrepeatable in my opinion.
Technique, timing, movement, angle of the blows that varied, a match poorly prepared by the English corner, you can not make him stay always in the quadrant of the left jab, in fact, has taken a lot of shots, it would not have been easy, do otherwise, but at those levels as a game plan would take something different, and a variation within the fight, considering the caliber of Usyk would be difficult, but should have tried. What can I say, we have seen an incredible match, beautiful, from all points of view, there is talk of a rematch in seven eight months we will see what happens;
AJ has been seen little in everything, he missed that view of the champion of champions, clearly had not planned nor he nor his corner, that such a commitment would end up like this, he was almost surprised from the first shot, he understood that it would be difficult tried but this is boxing. They knew they would meet a champion that in his outings as a maximum has been shown as an iceberg, I would give a prize to Ole’s corner for tactics, strategy, and game plan, they were perfect, with a perferct athlete to accomplish the work.
Okolie wins and confirms himself as a problem for many light heavyweights, our Pordan loses by split decision.
