Better performance but same gameplay from AJ. Makes no sense
I agree but I just don't think AJ has the grit to fight a rough fight after Ruiz 1. You cannot dance with Usyk have to have no respect for him.

Joshua finally put a few punches together and clearly hurt Usyk, who's clearly enjoying this fight a lot less than the first one.

He's still too slow to follow up when he does land. His only hope that those body shots accumulate and slow Usyk down, not long left for that to happen though.

Usyk feeling those body shots from the last round. AJ needs to smell blood here.

Really good from AJ. Needs to do more of that.

Usyk has definitely slowed down, maybe the body shots having an effect?

5-4 I'd say, Joshua finally fighting the way he needs to.

Usyk will come out hard for the next round, to try to re-establish control, AJ needs to weather that storm and see if he can hurt him again.

Joshua will get himself caught coming in now Usyk class will come through.

Oh dear. Think the tank is probably empty. Can't get out of the way of anything.

Joshua punched himself out in the previous round, looks like he coasted through this one, maybe it's his rope-a-dope
