Yep, very much agree.
Great fight, though, imo, and a well deserved victory for Usyk.
Fury’s lack of magnanimity in defeat won’t serve him well.

According to some sources Usyk went to hospital after the fight to get his jaw X-rayed .

the least of it....watching it it looks like they can take the hits but 36 minutes of being punched by a heavyweight championship boxer does a lot of damage, way more than the little cuts around the eyes. its grim brain damage stuff to be honest...the punch drunk interviews were horrible to watch. Happy new year!!
In Fear for His Life, Fans Blame Oleksandr Usyk for Tyson Fury’s ‘Happy New Year’ Debacle: “Has to Be the Damage From Round 9”
Tyson Fury shouting ‘Happy New Year’ after losing the undisputed battle to Oleksandr Usyk drives fans to wild speculations.

Those sources apparently were a certain Mr. T. Fury and a Mr. F. Warren

Was so good the moment Usyk had him on the ropes, I was just waiting for Fury to be floored. Pity he wasn’t but a deserved win for Usuk nevertheless.

I just timed how long between the huge left that visibly befuddled Fury and the ref stopping to count him. 22 seconds, no punches thrown and no defending for at least half that other than reeling around the ring. Nobody could have complained had it been stopped, but if it'd been a draw or a win for Fury, Usyk would have felt aggreived.

Mrs SI didn't know who I was rooting for until round 9 when I couldn't help shout Go ON Usyk!

It was... Rebekah Vardy's account
I watched that Holyfield fight where the guy paraglided into the ring on mushrooms. That was quite the experience.

Nope, Usyk is to be automatically stripped of the IBF belt because of some mandatory rematch clause bullshit Hrgovic had with Fury, so the belt will be vacated and Hrgovic and Dubois will contest it.
Wankers.

"I believe I won that fight. And I believe he won a few of the rounds, but I won the majority of them.
I believe we both put on a good fight - best we could do. And, you know, his country is at war. People are siding with the country at war."
Tyson Fury disgraces himself too often to be a source of national pride

Deontay Wilder appeared to be trying to run away when he was knocked out:

Protect yourself at all times. Only drop your hands when the fight is done.
Wilder is finished, end of. He's tried to come back from high profile defeat more than once and been found out. Maybe his heart has gone and that's fatal, perhaps literally so, for any boxer. There's been signs of him not wanting to be in there before. His management need to stop milking him and do the right thing. I won't hold my breath though. If Wilder moans about this then that's David Haye territory with excuses. Wilder has had a decent enough run, it's time for him to talk away with some money (assuming he hasn't been fucked like Mike Tyson was) and much more importantly his faculties and dignity.

It's certainly shown Tyson Fury up hasn't it? Wilder being battered like a Mars Bar again points towards Fury only beating bums and has beens. His hat trick v Wilder could have been legacy sealing fights v AJ and whoever else but he knew wa'gwan v Wilder, knew he was a busted flush.
