Night A Good Night For

Nigerian fighters.
Anthony Joshua lost to Ukranian Oleksandr Usyk in boxing
championship heavyweight rematch. He's already lost to him
previously but this time it was closer...losing on a split
decision. From all accords the fight was pretty good and
couldve gone either way. But if you're the champ, you have to
get beat pretty convincingly to lose a decision. Thats my
opinion anyway. Congrats to the big guy Usyk, he did what
champions do.
Also, Kamaru Usman lost to Leon Edwards in UFC278. I'm kinda
shocked by this. And once again its why I say, in order to be
the champ you gotta BEAT the champ convincingly. Edwards did
just that and SHOCKED the world. Usman is a no joke, but he got
caught. Anyone can get caught slipping in a fight. Congrats to
the new Champ....!!! The broadcasters were writing Edwards off
too. Basically saying he should be happy to be here kinda
ish...[emoji23]

Anthony Joshua is so frustrating IMO. Had all the talent in the
world to be able to dominate this era, but for whatever reason
his offense has been completely derailed and it's his own doing.
Went from being a guy with an awesome offensive arsenal
throwing beautiful powerful combinations, to a guy that just
throws 1 punch at a time.
I simply don't understand it. Not sure if he has bad trainers
that are giving him bad advice. Or if he just doesn't listen.

Yeah, when. He first came on the scene, I thought for sure he
was gonna take over. Even though the Klitschko brother was old,
he fought like a warrior in defeat. The Klitschko bros had a
run for sure. The 1st fight vs Ruiz was the one that told me he
was a fraud…even though he won the rematch. I knew it then,
that he wasn’t gonna be a long term champ. He really wanted
Tyson Fury for years, but ended up fighting the champ, Oleksandr
Usyk, who beat him twice. Don’t know where he goes from here.

And his excuses kill me. He says he's too big and it's too hard
to throw combos at his size. Such a nonsensical excuse.
1) He used to throw combos, it's not like he's grown since then.
2) Let's say for argument's sake that it's true that he has
bulked up since his earlier years and added more muscle and it
has negatively affected his boxing skills. Well who's damn
fault is that! Then spend less time on sculpting your body and
more time on hitting the heavy bag and sparring then.
3) Riddick Bowe, Lennox Lewis, the Klitchkos, etc... ALL big
guys that all threw combos. Heck Tyson Fury weighs 30 pounds
more than Fury and throws PLENTY of combos.
It's such nonsense.

A pugilist who doesn’t throw combos is a UFC/MMA fighter w/o the
kicking…😂

Usman played with his kill and got burned for it.
