Undisputed… fact that these 2 are both brilliant fighters 👏👏

What a fight… I’ve put Fury down in the past and questioned his CV (us armchair fans love doing that) but so much is clearer to me now about the Gipsy King - his technical ability, variety, power when up against the best fighter of our generation (1. Usyk 2. Canelo 3. Crawford)… so much respect for both men. How good is Usyk? Barry Jones said on commentary he had to turn the fight round. He listened to him. Saw his opening and took it in the 9th. What a master of his art. Huge appreciation for both men and nice to see the embrace at the end. A special night.

Like the addition of Adam Smith

So Buncey was right about the straight shot! Barry Jones is a good and insightful pundit and great to have Adam Smith on the live commentary. I hope the BBC didn’t spend too much of the licence fee on Del Boy Chisora, didn’t really add much value.
