What a fight, sometimes you have to drink your own blood. Warriors

DD skills shone through in the end

Stoppage was the right thing to do, he wasn't going to go down

Good tear up wasn't it? Wardley has some chin on him! For me it was more a lack of his skills rather than ddd being great. Moses wipes him out imo. Going to be a while before wardley is back. Id like to see ddd v parker at last, depending on how his controversy ends up of course. Give Moses another fight or 2, and then step up to the best in the division.

TBH Wardley is a dangerous fight for anyone in that division, I suspect most would try and avoid him. I like the bloke, tough man who can punch. Came from white collar boxing, what a story!

When you watch fights like those they could easily go either way, credit to DD he took it, started to slip the jab and counter.

Moses looks good and I hope he is a British heavyweight champ. Still has to take a proper one for me but I'm sure that will come along

Well, Usyk ate some leather in that, great body shots from Rico, he would have pissed it on points for me if Usyk hadn?t got the stoppage in the 11th, he had to go for it. And that should have not been stopped, scrapped through again

Usyk, great fighter no doubt but I do feel he has had the benefit of the judges a few times now, ****

2.59 says it all.. I think Rico would have spoiled and hung on through the 12th and should have been given that opportunity.
Compare it to wardley who was allowed to go 3 rounds with a face like a half eaten trifle.
I think the ref got the word-don't let the bell save him or let it go to the judges.

Bad decision that was, inconsistency as usual

Usyk is a global superstar, no doubt, but I can’t help thinking he has had the benefit of the referees and the judges a few times now.

He don’t like those shots to the wickets though, Rico gave them a good working
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
