RICO WON.

>sport hosted by the saudis>surprised it gets rigged
>the unified heavyweight champion lost to a kickboxerAbsolute shambles of a sport.
>>154815254usyk was beat tonight.
rico is the champ
I was manifesting Rico to win then started feeling really bad for Usyk and of course he got a robbery win. My powers are too strong.
i dont get this sportwhy did it end so suddenly? pretty sure they could've gone on for another round
You don't wanna have refs fuck you over? Dominate.
Absolutely fucking shamefulLet zuffa take boxing, fuck it and fuck them all

My people > 2.59s
>NYEHHH OOKRAINENobody cares!!!! FRAUD.

The fucking brazenness to say it was officially stopped at 2:59 when the ref waved it off AFTER the bell rang holy shit
Need Itauma to destroy this fraud
>>154815299>Dominate.Rico literally did that. I guess you need to knock the other cunt out these days
He’s retiring now

>it's good fightno, not really
Lennox Lewis was the last good heavyweight. From then on, nothing but bums.
>there are still people who don't know that every industry is rigged against whites
wtf is this bullshit
Rico is a cardio machine. He would have refreshed between rounds
ukrainian fraud
this is such a shambles
Make Kabayel fight Rico first
Cheater, loser, fake fighter.
IT'S THE JEWSdid he just say that
the biggest robbery I've ever seen since Ngannou vs Furywe heemsters won again
>>154815381same guy who got knocked out against literal who?
lmao Ry Co
Boxing is a joke. Take this general over to /pw/ where it belongs. >>>/pw/
>>154815381George Foreman?
Rico...
why do you watch this rigged trash sport that is the most bait and obvious rigging I have ever seen in any sport
Rico took too much time putting on the mouth piece, usyk would have finished him completely if they didn’t fuck around with the gum shield
turkey is a funny guy
>stopped after the bell>official at 2:59>now at 2:55bruh
...wha happen? Why is everyone memeing on Usyk?
>some dysgenic arab sitting there dictating ordersabsolute state of boxing
not like rico will care much, he got 20 million eurobux anyways
Even if that wasn’t the last second of the round it’s a horrific stoppage
fake stoppage after the bell rung so your fraud prize fighter didn't lose by decisiongayest bullshit sport on the planet
/HEEM/ WINS AGAIN/HEEM/ WINS AGAIN/HEEM/ WINS AGAIN
>>154815399lol Fury schooled Ngannou compared to thisRico did to Usyk what retards like you said Ngannou did to Fury
Ricos english is so goodi wonder if the dutch anons have this level of english
>>154815461faggot claiming a kickboxing as mma.
>>154815340Didn't dominate. In boxing dominating means physically harming the other man, and Rico wasn't doing that.Looked impressive, wasn't really.
>>154815300You guys realize there’s no drug testing for all fights taken place abroad by the saudis. That’s why hamza performs well and some others. No drug testing
>>154815440I can't believe usyk knocked him out only halfway into the round haha like right after they came out of the corner haha his first punch in the 9th round haha that was crazy
>>154815461they can say what they want about mma but stuff this clowny doesn't happen at the highest level
>>154815465HOLY TRVKE
>>154815254Can he? People will remember him struggling against a 1-0 boxer
Rico > Usyk > Joshua/Dubois/Fury > Everyone else
>>154815440Closer to 2:50
>>154815473it's pretty common yeah
>>154815444Usyk was losing clearly on the scorecards, he got one knockdown in the 11th round and the ref stopped it prematurely.
Rico was>defending intelligently>bell literally rang>Poosyk didn't even meaningfully connect in his last flurry>Poosyk got outboxed all night>Rico is a star-studded champion in his own right>World championship fight, not an exhibition>Championship roundsEither an instant rematch for Usyk to somewhat restore his honor or straight into retirement.This was basically a shithousery version of Lennox v Vitali, there are lots of bizarro-verse parallels too, Vitali used to be a kickboxer.
That was such a strange ending would the ref have stopped it if Usyk was 8 rounds to 2 up and Rico put him on the ropes in the same way?
usyk is ugly and weirdrico is handsome and cool
This was never a stoppage in a million years. Rico got knocked down but he was defending himself. Also the ref stopped it exactly at the bell. Rico was winning on the scorecard and they were scared shitless he would recover in the final round xD
usyk is such a faggot
>>154815473They do. Dutch people speak English very well
Usyk should retire
>ref started to move to stop the fight before the bell rang>bell rang before the ref got between themCorrect call would be to end the round, since he didn't get between them until after the round had ended.
>>154815445>>154815451pillowtap has NO SHAME
There was a virus on Usyk’s system making it harder to scan data on Rico
Judging by the way boxing is going they may as well make the next match a triple threat.
>>154815491Joshua probably mops Rico bc he’s bigger than Usyk and is a good boxer. I’d even give Deontae wilder a shot just bc all he needs to do is land a bomb on some guy who doesn’t box
>>154815444it was one of the worst displays in sports history lolit was just blatantly rigged. the scoring was already suspicious. rico was actually winning and it was tied somehow. then the ref stopped it after bell on the most suspicious stoppage ever.everybody lost tonight except rico lmaoi didnt bet on this but i will never ever bet on sports again after that. it was way too obvious what was going on
Man this post fight drags on and is weird af. Someone out some order
kabayel vsusyk... the most anticipated fight in boxing historythey are literally negotiating the next fight in the ring now lmao
nobody gives a fuck about this german muttoid
Ngannou and Rico both literally and unironically won
globohomo ""won""
usyk is such a little pussy muh bombs muh shelter
>>154815503many are saying this
>>154815473Nords and Dutchies are generally like this. Very impressive stuff.
Fucking disgraceful. Got this Indian fuck in the ring trying to sweep Rico aside after that robbery. And the wheels keep turning.
you don't stop someone standing up in the later rounds when they are dominating a title fight, that is the most basic thing.
Usyk is a bot
They are really desperate to make that hohol look like an all time greatest boxer, are they? First Dubois KO'd him with a legit body shot and they cancelled it and then this rig. Slava Ukraini!
>>154815286Rico is the greatest HW kickboxer of all time though.
>>154815518You almost manifested Usyk getting beat by a 1-0 boxer. Well actually he did get beat but won because I started feeling sorry for him losing and it reversed my manifesting powers so he got the robbery ref stoppage
>>154815483X to doubt
and people still wonder why mma is the most popular fighting sport nowadays
>>154815528>he'd take bum squad over GODhoeven.what a cuckold. you suck cock brainlet.
>>154815528No mate. Joshua is garbage. He hasn't been a good boxer in over seven years.
This is what a real stoppage looks like btw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCkEuHQoZiM
>>154815508Taking punches with your face isn’t defending. I agree the ref is a faggot and should have let Rico get knocked out. These type of stoppages kill entertainment.
>>154815559Nah
RETARDS IN THE LAST THREAD HOW DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT CASHING OUT IS?I made money, on a loser, knowing boxing is jewish.
serious question. was the ref obligated by the rules to let rico get his mouth guard back?
Andrew Tate and Dubois upscale
>they didn't know the fix was in
>>154815444Usyk was clearly losing, like 8-2 level of losingAfter the 8th the commentators said the WBC was open scoring and their judges had it equal 76-76, which was shocking and a sign that they were desparate to rig itThen at the tail end of the 11th Usyk landed a couple of good shots and Rico went to his knees, a fair knockdown. Stood up and they restarted, Usyk throwing shots. The bell audibly went, Usyk threw 2+ more punches after the bell, then the ref separated them, but suddenly declared that the fight was overlTo the shock of both Rico's corner, who had entered the ring with the stool, and the commentators, who couldn't believe itStoppage announced originally as 2:59 (!) of the round, then revised to 2:55 (!!!)Absolutely disgustingly rigged to protect usyk
>>154815536You should bet on non rigged sports like darts or snooker/poolIt's hard to cheat when the rules are simpler
>>154815568Is it? Not a single mma fighter in top 500 highest paid athletes
>>154815544why do you spam these images? where did your life go SO wrong? are you a buttblasted paki? touch grass gay retard.
this sport will only disappoint youliterally every time
If I was Daniel Dubois I'd stop munching my crayons and demand my team get a fight against Usyk signed immediately. Dubois, Kabayel, maybe even Zhang would beat this Usyk.
Usyk did worse against Rico than Fury did against Ngannou. Fact. Usyk one 3 rounds including the 11th where he got the robbery. That was going to a clear Rico UD.
>>154815577if a guy is dominating a title fight, you let him get knocked out, you don't stop them standing up on some weak flurry
i wonder if ricos weird style fucked usyks mind. like suddenly all the small technical feints and stuff dont work because he doesnt even notice them, and youve never seen weird hand movement like that before. i think if youre a 10/10 boxer, youd rather face an 8/10 boxer than a 1/10 because youve never seen one before
>>154815581You wanna start really gambling, try futures contracts.Thank me later.
It's been a blast /box/bros, been dropping in for nearly a decade at this point but I'm done with watching boxing. Every single event ends with some shit like this. Tried to pretend otherwise, but which this in particular is the worst conduct I've ever witnessed at a sporting event, it's pretty much the same thing we see every weekend. The round was over, the bell had rung 3 seconds before the "winning" combo. The guy was fine, on his feet, winning on everyone watching's card and 3 or 4 seconds into the break. This was a disgrace the human race, nevermind boxing. Tacky, dogshit event, huge gaps of niggers talking for hours, dead eyed soulless whores slurping turki in every breath, dogshit rap music and stupid theatrical trailers and rehearsed walkouts. That's it for me.Tschüß.
>>154815552ye you do, i literally just watched it happen. for the bets innit
Why do Kurds end up everywhere, I thought they got genocided by the various nations they're trying to carve their country out of.At least Germany got a HW contender out of one of theirsThe ones we get are just all criminals
>>154815594thats because dana keeps all the money
Rico stop Fury and AJ
>>154815613>>154815603
I feel sick. I'm done with this "sport"
>>154815608probably so, just awkward.
This just exposed Usoyk's whole career for being protected by the refs and judges>Judges screw Fury twice>Ref screws Dubois>Judges screw Chisora>Ref screws RicoTime to call Usoyk out for the protected faggot he is.
>>154815365Eee ruski relokant pohryukai))
>>154815541Rico got dropped and was on his way to a nap, Ngubu wasn’t hurt once and did win
>>154815614Is there anyone is this thread that thinks that was a legit stoppage reason?
>>154815444In football terms Man City were struggling to get the ball v the All Blacks then won a penalty and the ref declared it a goal and blew full time early
Is Rico American? He has an American accent.
Pretending this is Usyk vs Rico over and over
>>154815602I'm a big fan of big bang zhang, but isn't he about 52 now
>>154815581Same, I made 300 on this one. As look as I heard commentary say that the live score was tied I was out
rico won>>154815632you are never getting crimea back
Maybe rico should just leave the sport now? Everyone swa he clearly won and boxing is a dirty whore. Leave it for the wicked. Im not even invested in any sport but watched this for fun and ended up MAD AF
>>154815611>Tacky, dogshit event, huge gaps of niggers talking for hours, dead eyed soulless whores slurping turki in every breath, dogshit rap music and stupid theatrical trailers and rehearsed walkoutsshit you're right
>>154815581>23 poundsWhat a nonce
>>154815642Dutch sound like retarded Americans
>dude fury totally didn’t even train for that francis ngannou fight>dude joshua totally didn’t even train for that jake paul fight>dude usyk totally didn’t even train for that rico verhoeven fightmaybe your champions just suck cock lol
Rigged bullshit, i can’t wait for boxing to die.
Usyk will lose against kabayel, he should call it quits right now. 39 years old and not getting younger
>>154815581I live in a Republican state where sports betting is illegal.
Usyk would have heemed him in another 5 punches. The ref knew that.
UFC starts at 9am next weekend lads see you then yeah? Time to switch to a real sport.
>>154815642He's dutch, weirdly a lot of them have yank accents.
>Last week: Wardley being assraped almost getting beaten into a coma for 30 minutes by a 250-pound roided crayon eater>This week: He bought? Dump it
can we stop pretending ukraine is a real country already
>>154815590Chance this will be somehow overturned?
Alhamdullilah im a heemster
>>154815673Just let that happen. Why would he stop it? It's too close.
>>154815611Retard casual can't comprehend the concept of closing a fight. There's a reason why there is a TKO over KO. For boxing's sake never come back.
>>154815686Zero.
kiev has fallen
If I'm Rico I'm shouting the sport is corrupt and Usyk is a fraud from the top of my lungs

>>154815686-100000000%It can't be overturnedThe narrative will take over>usyk was actually outclassing him the whole time>usyk landed the more precise shots>the ref saved ricoYou will see posts like this soon
10 910 910 910 99 1010 910 99 1010 910 98 10 (rigged stoppage)Total score Rico 106-102 Usyk
yeah that was the most blatant robbery I've ever seen, ref clearly had to find a way to get Usyk to win because the money train was already lined up to account for the win, so he just rushed it completely and I still think Usyk would have won that next round by knockout or losing it by points would have been way more satisfyingfucking too bad it's pretty much WWE at this point and the organizers plan everything ahead
Usyk has two choices.>retire, last fight was a gift that tarnished his legacy>fight again, if he fights the same way he'll get his ass kicked
Rico > NgannouUsyk > FurySimple as.
Every commentator is actively gaslighting to make people think that wasn't the most blatant corrupt call of all time
>>154815686the saudis need slavic monkeys to give them drone advice or something so probably not
How come Rico got dropped? He should've stayed on his foot and won the fight.
>>154815737you had one job
>>154815590So basically this is like "what if Mayweather actually lost to Conor and needed refball"? Losing to a fucking kickboxer as the "HW Goat"?
>>154815671Use bovada nigga
>>154815691cope faggot, this shit is dead
Rico is the lineal heavyweight champion of the world. No ifs, no buts. He won. Refs should be able to be overruled by an independent body if they are doing something obviously corrupt like what happened in this fight.
>>154815737Rico > Usyk > Fury > Mgubu
The ref got the call that the bookies didn’t want to pay out the bets for a Rico win
they say never argue with an idiot, because theyll drag you down to their level and win. it almost happened kek.>>154815743HUGE story and aura loss for you tonight gonners ngl
>>154815723You can't let belt fights be close, a fighter has to take a belt. What would win a normal fight ends in a draw in belt fights.
SCORECARDS>IT WAS A DRAW>IT WAS A DRAW>IT WAS A DRAWLMAO
How pillow fisted are kick boxers that they couldn't even hurt a middleweight?
kanker
>>154815604Rico wasn’t dominating the fight, this was a classic usyk walk down with a slow start followed by amped up later rounds and finisher in the final rounds. The Brit stoppage (don’t know if the ref was a Brit, but that’s what it was) took away the entertainment, should have let rico get ko’d in the next round
it would have been a great 12th round
>>154815720no one speaks nigger here you potato nigger you will lose donbas too btwkekgone nowrico won btw
>>154815774>HUGE story and aura loss for you tonight gonners nglguy spent the entire fight posting fury nganou images
Imagine if you were a betfag that bet on Rico.
>>154815774Only reason Usyk won is because I started feeling bad for him and stopped manifesting Rico. I tried not to but it was actually really sad watching Usyk go out like that despite all the memes. Ive still got a heart unlike gonners the satanist fool.
This shows that MMAgays have no chin. A guy who is not known for power almost knocked him out through the ropes kek
yes the early stoppage was riggybut why the FUCK do we always choke????? if he didnt choke and get knocked down at the very end this wouldnt even have happenedgod being dutch is such a curse
Official Power rankings:>RICO>MAGUMBO>US0YK>GYPSY QUEEN
>>154815792thats the worst bit, I was as suprised as Uysk. let they finish it
>>154815784>the fix was inhere come all the shameless neckbeardw to say acshually usyk was downloading him
>>154815744>drone advicetrump said the war with iran is over tho
>>154815754>>154815770Early stoppage =/= Rico would’ve KO’d Usyk in the 12th. Bullshit, he was gassed after round 9. Prove me wrong.Pro tip: you can’t.
Rico was even pushing forwards at time of the stoppage
>>154815686>>154815722There you go, see>>154815790>this was a classic usyk walk down with a slow start followed by amped up later rounds and finisher in the final roundsIt's starting
Does Usyk have one of the best chins of all time or are kick boxers just that pillow fisted
>>154815812Get off the VPN Turki
>>154815814That was a huge story win for Rico. You should be proud. He 100% deserved to win that if he could survive the next round which I think he could’ve but it would’ve been hard
why are people just complaining about the stoppage? look at the judges scorecards, they would have given it to usyk if rico had survived the fight. insane rigging
>>154815656He got dropped and wasn’t defending himself, he was getting ko’d next round, how did we win? Did we watch the same fight?
>>154815792Absolute robbery that is. Bigger screwjob than the Montreal Screwjob.
Usoyk will never recover from this.
>>154815814At least you still have weed and tulips.
why did Rico fall onto his knees? He could've simply stood up and won the fight.
Rico is the people's champion
>>154815644kek what match was this?
Rico Verhoeven is a better boxer than any british heavyweight today
glory kickboxing took over both mma and boxing
>>154815570I don’t like Joshua at all but he deleted that big ufc guy who almost beat fury. I give him the pass for this. Other than Joshua who are you saying can best this kickboxer? Usyk is too small
>>154815399>>154815465magumbo unironically only win 3 rounds on this fight with the knockdown round, when he had Fury hurt on the eigth round and one of the previous swinging rounds I think? it wasnt the best performance from Fury but the fact that he already had the fight against usyk scheduled plus him coming off of back surgery always led me to believe that he didnt take that fight seriously.
>>154815691I could end your life with a single punch boxclittycel, pipe down.>abloo-bloo muh cte muh braindamage im such a fucking bitch pls save me refthis is why MMAgods won, fucking PATHETIC FAGGOT KILL YOURSELF
>>154815875he needs to retire. Kabayel will smesh him. Hell i think most of the top HWs will smesh him.
>>154815854So we’re making up what would’ve happened in a 12th round with 2% of his gas tank left?
>the best boxer in the world is a Dutch kickboxer /box/ing in shambles.
>>154815784A draw is very generous. Mike Coppinger actually had the right scorecards with Rico 6-7 rounds up. Usyk won 3 rounds (including the 11th)
>>154815848Rico landed nothing of consequence and never tested Usyk's chin.He was still winning though and this was an utterly embarrassing performance from Usyk who should've stopped him inside of 6.
>>154815691These meme fights always bring out the retards.
The greatest kick boxer of all time fell from an uppercut from a middleweight? Holy KEK
This is why heem reigns supreme. Say what you want about Dana but you don't see these shenanigans in the UFC
>>154815784How can anyone continue to watch this "sport" after this?
>>154815903All besides the point. He was defending himself, it was a championship fight, there was less than a second left in the round. Ridiculous stoppage.
heem wonheem always wins
usyk lost the first 10 on purpose to download data
Reminder that Ngannou vs Fury was a 10 rounder. If this was 10 rounds it would’ve officially been a draw on the scorecards.
>>154815922dana has abandoned poofc in favour of boxing
>>154815922It's time for Zuffa boxing to take over
MMAgays have no power and no chin.
>>154815870after watching the Wardley fight I find it hard to say 100% anyone can't last 1 more round
>>154815881…but enough about “King” Ryan Garcia.>>154815889This is true, he would maul current Fury.
>>154815724Usyk was going to knock him out, the ref took a clean victory from him. Now DKSABs are going to claim Rico won for years lol. The ref did more damage to Usyk by not letting him get a clean knockout.
How does the HW division recover after this?
>>154815590It’s not unheard of. Someone mentioned Chavez v Taylor and yea similar to that. Rico was badly hurt the refs don’t look at the clock when they see a hurt fighter they just think to protect the fighter. I know seems very rigged but why would Usyk willingly get beaten the fucked up by this guy for 11 rounds.
In defense of the ref:>the referee is obligated to stop the action and allow the boxer to retrieve their mouth guard, but only at the first opportune moment that doesn't interfere with immediate, active fighting. Boxers are not allowed to simply stop fighting or drop their guard to pick it up themselvesso, the ref objectively fucked Usyk first when he was delaying the mouth piece you can see Usyk being upset. that gave Rico precious seconds. and then he fucked Rico with a stoppage after the bell. even if the bell was not there, Rico deserved more time, even if that was being hit.im not happy about it but the knockdown was legit. Rico's head position throughout the fight was opportune for an uppercut.
>>154815889Dubois smashes him to pieces
>>154815929It was only an early stoppage because Usyk couldn’t knock him out like he did to Dubois.Usyk won.
Usyk looked like a low-energy, stiff, suicidal, flatfooted beta onions cucklet. Ukrainigga is getting dropped out of the Top 10 P4P list tomorrow like a hot potato.Rico is easily a Top 5 HW.
>>154815942UFC is sitting pretty with their Paramount deal. Now he's working on saving boxing. Thank you Uncle Dana
>>154815961Rico was pushing forwards and the round was over. Unless you mean in the 12th your coping.
2 judges had it a draw going into the 11th round LOL, rico was never going to be allowed to win that belt
row row row my fist gently down your chinmerrily merrily merrily rico beat usyk
you guys don't get it at all. Rico might have won more rounds but what about the integrity of sport? you can't just give out belts to guys winning off the points. Rico might have Usyk beat here, but he didn't beat the megalith that is Boxing itself, that's why he lost.
It was only a couple of years ago people were talking about modern times like it's the golden age of heavyweight boxing. Turns out they're all fucking shit and are spending their time fighting YouTubers and MMA guys.
>>154815934>usyk lost the first 10 on purpose to download dataThis.>all these people who DKSAB
>>154815679this post is so fucking funny
leave the sport of boxing… to me…
Majority draw with Rico up 2 rounds on one scorecard
>>154815961i dont think usyk would have gotten him out of there. Rico didnt even look that bad during usyk's final barrage and was firing back with punches. I think after a minute he would have recovered enough to survive the next round. They didnt want it going to the cards because then it would have been how obvious the rigging was.
How come Rico never hurt Usyk once in this fight? It's simple, MMGays cannot punch to save their lives.
genuinely how do you guys watch this sport
Anons should watch kickboxing, especially JKickKickboxing is simply the superior sport>fewer rounds = faster pace>more weapons = more action>only corrupt when japs face nonjap asians in favour of the jap, otherwise it's pretty fairK-1 will never truly die
Can Usyk survive Hell in a Cell against the Undertaker?
If Rico is best boxer of this age how does he do against Ali?
>usyk loses 9 out of 11 rounds, getting absolutely dominated>fags saying "he would have won the 12th!!!"give me a fucking break, semen slurping """""sport""""
>>154815870 So let him drop dead then, he was still on his feet, arms up. Plenty of times they recover well enough in break. Or get knocked out clean in last round, whats the issue there?
>>154815940If it was a ten-rounder, Usyk would’ve gotten him out of there in 6 rounds or less.>>154815961You are officially the only other smart person ITT. Everyone else snoy-ing out because they wanted GODsyk to lose, like the retards they are.
These MMGays are seriously heartlets if you think about it. Any top boxer wouldn't have folded like that from a tired Usyk but he went down at the first sign of trouble. Weak.
>>154816016ummm it has niggers and jake paul, my two favorite things?
>>154815976but it was after the knockdown not mid-fight that the mouthguard was retrieved. It was legitimately knocked out during the punch too.
>>154815989Pushing forwards with his face like a man not knowing what he is doing because his brain is somewhere else yes
How the fuck did this faggot Coppinger have a job in boxing all his takes and scorecards are horrible
>>154816016It’s never a good fight when u import people into box. Boxers are used to people who have a sense of box. Someome imported has no box sense and this makes for an awkward fight especially if they have a chin or are larger
>>154816041He got a rigged win. Everyone with eyes seen it. He was getting outboxed and manhandled.
Thinking usyk should hang up the gloves
>>154815975>why would Usyk willingly get beaten the fucked up by this guy for 11 rounds.Usyk had nothing to do with itRigged != scriptedIt means the officials working (independently) toward the same goal>judges leaning toward usyk when rounds are close>ref leaning toward stopping it early when rico is hurtetc.There's no grand conspiracy, it's just incentives leading to natural outcomes
>>154815870even if that is all true, you let the man who is dominating the fight get KO'ed because he is owed that. You stop it ''prematurely'' when a guy is getting dominated and has no chance of winning on the cards.
Deploy the Anthony Joshua bomb.
>>154815978No he didn't. There's a huge question mark now because of that retarded stoppage. The round had ended. Either Rico gets stopped in the 12th or he doesn't. We don't know now, because of that fucking moronic referee.
>>154816062He’s a big sucker of Saudi cock. He made all the connections for them
>>154816027So we score with our eyes closed and having a retard tell us what’s happening now? It was tied until the 11th.
How much coke did Rico do in the locker room?
>>154816063I mean its the most corrupt sport in the world i tune in for like 4 fights a year and constantly see bullshit and everyone just moves on
>>154816024ali would have ran to vietnam if he saw a glimpse of rico’s chad legs
>>154816102what a joke
>>154816060Doesnt matter, he was defending and pushing forwards. If he was on the ropes fair, but he wasn't. Utterly fraudulent.
Lucky I sold my Usyk stocks last week.
Does anyone ever do some kind of appeal or make an accusation after a fight? All I ever see its 'ohhh controversial lets do le rematch' and every cunt buys into it
Fury KOs UsykMoses KOs UsykKabayel KOs UsykChisora KOs UsykJoyce KOs UsykDubois KOs UsykHrgovic KOs UsykZhang KOs Usyk
>>154816075That’s what I’m saying. Joshua filters out the imports
>every boxing writer removing Usyk from the P4P list as we speak
Usyk:>Thank you GodGod:
Imagine doing so well for most of the fight then getting dropped by an uppercut. It was his fault for throwing away a fight he could've won.
>>154816115>>154816115>>154816115
>>154816067…but enough about Rico after he got gassed.>>154816079>or he wasn’t So you just lie now because you’re a DKSABer. Cool. No wonder I don’t come around here like before.
yet another story win for heem, yes rico is one of ourssorry dorks
The only fighters that won tonight were British.
>>154816122You could but the Egyptian boxing federation will put it in the bin.
>>154816020>KOs get only called when the guy is down bloody on the groundThere, reason why Kickboxing is superior.
>>154816102lgbt scorecard !!
>>154816040I agree with you that the stoppage was bad and the ref should have let usyk get a clean knockout which was about to happen in the next 10 seconds or in the next round.
his name is cassius fucking clay not nuhammed king shabazz ooga booga ali
Why are MMGays so pillow fisted? How come Rico wouldn't simply drop Usyk
>>154816131>imagine getting knocked down in a boxing fightYeah never happened before. He got robbed out of an EXTREMELY good chance of becoming champYou are a subhuman
>>154816140Rico has way too much rizz and genuine kindness to be cage fighting. Hed euro and refined and does kick BOXING
>>154816122in mma no one has ever appealed anything meaningful including some very obvious fouls that ruined fights. like winning a fight on an eyepoke and they still turn it down. its a waste of time.
>>154816088>It was tied until the 11th.
MMGays can only hump each other on the floor. When they get punched they aren't used to it so they fold instantly. Many such cases.
>>154816122yeah from established stars it happens. but rico verhoeven is a "just happy to be there" guy brought onto the main stage. all these crossover fighters are just happy to share in the spoils of boxing
>>154816102>>154816157they’re not even hiding the faggotry
>>154816059>but it was after the knockdown not mid-fight that the mouthguard was retrievedThat's even worse. Without a hint of irony, im changing my mind: the ref might have been trying to cover his previous fuckupWATCH THE VIDEO. The ref gives Rico literally 15 seconds to retrieve his mouth piece. You don't stop a fight like that, the fight should resume immediately after a knock down.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pa5QRkJrROQ
>>154816171shut up gurucel
>>154816135You know literally nothing about Rico. He outweighs Usyk by 20lbs, he's got great cardio and recovery and Usyk was struggling to land all night. He very well might have survived the 12th round. The referee doesn't stop the fucking fight because they think oh he might get knocked out in a few rounds. LET HIM GET KNOCKED OUT.
>Fury dropped by Ngubu and wins a rigged fight>Uysk beat by Rico for 10 rounds before an early stoppage and wins a rigged fightReally makes me think
Globohomo rigged sport
>>154816170Yeah, he did MMA a few times prior, he's too professional of a fighter to go all out like that all the time.
>>154816088Only according to Jewish judges. Though even judges had Rico at least 1 up
Ngannou won, rico won, boxers are cheaters who couldn't win a fight to save their wife's boyfriend's life.
>>154816109Walking straight into punches with your face is not defending that’s why the ref stopped it, it’s something some fighters do instinctually when hurt. I don’t like these stoppages because at the end of the day, what the punters want to see is knockouts.
rico aint no mmgay guy he is the king of kickboxing and tonight he also became the hw boxing champ
Rico would've won if he knocked out Usyk. Or at least drop the man. How come he couldn't do it?
>>154816186Picrel is you typing “Rico won 9 rounds”Usyk clutched the win. Usyk won.
>>154815663
robbery
We’re Ukrainians are simply built different
Usyk fucking sucks cock
>>154816235https://x.com/DovySimuMMA/status/2058324989011526124Actually watch it. Usyk lands a few shots. Bell rings. Referee stops it. It's a joke.
>>154816123All lose, only Chad Rico wins
>>154816261riggers
>bell rings >ref calls it offThey can do that?
Poosyk>kisses a man>prays to Mecca>rigs
I don't know what you guys are saying. The ref gave Rico 15 to 20 seconds to recover after the knockdown to retrieve the mouth piece.
Rico could've landed an actual power shot on Usyk and force TKO. But he couldn't hurt Usyk all night.
Any of you lads made the webm yet?
>>154815678RP (which is what is officially taught in schools) is seen as try hard. We all learn English from American media, no need to pretend otherwise. Usually only the English teachers and their pets sound Bri'ish.
>>154816265Lmao you can literally hear the bell go WTF
Would love to see the footage with the timer on the whole thing.
rico wasn’t even allowed to kick
>>154816261Get in the cuck shelter, mykola
Two stoppages in a row, Usyk is on a roll
you lost
>>154816217Here’s what happened in reality:Usyk won.Rico lost.The 12th was Usyk’s.Cry more.>>154816228…before the knockdown, and subsequent technical knockout.
>>154816333>Usyk ringwalks with 100000 kilogram metal armor>Looks like a befuddled retard in the ring all nightMaybe the Bronze Bomber was on to something
>>154816325that's the kick of it all, rico could have killed usyk if he wanted to. boxing fags are on suicide watch
>>154816294Usyk has a top chin, as well as every other boxing attribute, minus knockout power, god removed that from his stats, otherwise it would just be cheating.
>>154816354You realise Usyk should’ve lost right? And ruined his legacy.
whats the point of practicing something as one dimensional as boxing when a fight had to be rigged inorder for a kickboxer not to beat the p4p number 1 boxer in boxing?
>>154816238Usyk wasn't seriously hurt at any point. he has a good chin and defense and is rarely hurt in generalI still had him losing on points though. he moved in slow-motion, looked terrible and Rico fought much better than I expected
>>154815790>this was a classic usyk walk downDon't forget the classic rico comes back from a knockdown that he's know for in kickboxing
Let’s be honest if Rico didnt take so long to put his mouth piece back in Usyk would have stopped him non controversially anyway
masterclass by usyk, absorbed so much data
Can we do something about the little bald goblin britbing commentator? Put him in a circus act, make him climb down chimneys, ride a uni cycle, anything but commentate on top fights?
>>154815364It took THAT fight to make you realise boxing was corrupt?Where have you been?
It wasn’t 2:59. It was after the bell. Todd Grisham had to announce it as 2:59 because obviously they couldn’t say he stopped him after the bell.
boxing is just glorified dancing, gay judges and fag fans
>>154816415Commentary brought to you by DAZN.
>>154816402lets be honest, if you guys took the muzzle off rico, usyk would have had his head chop off
>>154816238Cuz he isn’t as good as the Usyk haters and MMGay/Dutch have made him out to be.
we won
I've spent the last 8 years training this meme sport when I could have been kickboxing
I thought championship fights were 3 knockdowns and you're out? Most of Usyk's last punches didn't even connect, getting tired of "ref stoppages".
>>154816402He paused the timer after the mouthpiece went out dummy
Now we see the heemlets crawling over to big brother boxing to get paid. Remember THE Conor Benn gets paid more than UFC's biggest star.
>>154815590>and Rico went to his knees, >a fair knockdown. >Stood up and they restarted, No, they didn't just restart. The ref gave Rico 15 to 20 more seconds to get his mouth piece and recover. He is not supposed to do that. He is supposed to let him get the piece back at an opportune moment that doesn't interfere with the action. The fight HAS to restart immediately after a knockdown.
>>154816423Proof? You look like a salty bitch if you’re just crying lies now.
At least Catterall won
>miserable performance from Usyk>both fighters sounded depressed at the end>commentators audibly confused>Turki trying to hype up the Kabayel fight when everyone in the ring looked like they were at a funeral>even Kabayel looked uncomfortable
boxsisters... heem chads are making fun of us
>>154816461https://x.com/DovySimuMMA/status/2058324989011526124Why are you ragebaiting?
>>154816359bare faced cope
>>154816454>He paused the timerhe didn't the timer kept going. also you are not supposed to let the fighter recover because they dropped the mouth piece. that's the most exploitable thing ever.
>>154816454Still gave him time to recover
Rico was winning most of the fight and I agree that stoppage felt dirty as fuck. Don't get confused, plenty of Ukrainians also seen the objective performance and not glazing him out of patriotic feelings. Apparently Usyk supposed to give Rico a rematch and it's 100% right thing to do.
>>154816456yes it is very common for athletes to try acting careers
>>154816469they really tried to force usyk to say who he wanted to face next
***REMINDER***Usoyk has never been /box/, we never claimed him.
>>154816469clip? I couldn't watch
>>154816473>boxsisters... heem chads are making fun of usit's unironically over for us
>>154816480>https://x.com/DovySimuMMA/status/2058324989011526124>"what are you doing referee"crazy that there can be no consequences for the ref for this
Imagine being a MMGay for your life only for your own promoter to pay Conor Benn more money
I’d like to watch francis ngannou vs rico verhoeven in a real sport now
Boxing is a fantastic sport, it’s a shame it’s surrounded by gay corrupt bullshit.
If you don’t see this is as rigged you're just a shill. Barely even connected.
>>154816498Unless Turki uses his pull it's definitely going to be Agit next. The WBC are terrified of their belt going to some kickboxer.
rico always been respectful and nice and now he gets shat on like this
>>154816469These type of stoppages are the ultimate blueballing rug pulls, shit for everyone involved. Rico was more than happy to go out on his shield, usyk wanted to finish it, the fans wanted a knock out, then the ref took a big turd all over it.
I am very feel.
>>154816513It's mad because the commentators give their unvarnished opinions for a few seconds, then immediately start minimising what happened and trying to brush it under the rug because they want to keep their gigs. Very cowardly.
>>154816534literally only thing that matters is what turki wants
You don’t run in and stop a man that size from taking a few shots. He’s 270lbs+ FFS he can take a hit.
>>154816498He's going to claim an injury is what slowed him down and retire undefeated. He won't risk a loss after this performance.
>>154816533holly shit fucking riggers rico easily won that fight i used to like uysk but am sure he wil duck rico from now on
Rico vs Ngannou when
Who here /kickboxing/ now?
schilt stops usyk inside 3
>>154816553He's had way worse in Kickboxing, in those bouts against Ben Saddik, they were bleeding all over the ring until Verhoeven knocked Ben Saddik out.
they should have alternated boxing-kickboxing each round to make it fair
He won, again...
>>154816440I admit I was a muay thai purist before I got sucked in by this shitty smackdown vs raw-tier bullshit sport and became a boxfag for a long time. I was brainwashed but now I am awake and see clearly. I need to catch up with the current MT big names and rankings. Namsaknoi is my favourite btw.
>>154816562if anything I think usyk wants the rematch with rico more than he wants anything else. the usyk that fought against rico gets knocked out against kabayel
>>154816566Heem has always been watching kickboxing. Sorry dork we win as always.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eivKoyw33pA
Another failed attempt from a MMGay
>>154816553He wasn't just hitting him, he was teeing off on a dude that was looking at the floor.You can't give a British ref a reason to stop your fight early, that's the first thing they teach you.
RUN RABBIT RUN
>>1548164802:59, faulty audio from that broadcast.Usyk won.
>>154816572exactlly , rico been getting knees shots on his head for 20 years already i dont see uysek ever koing him espacially uysk being known for weak ko power anyway
That was actually sad AF watching Usyk get beat like that though. I wasn’t expecting it to be so one sided.
>>154816566I tried watching it once but it's not for me; boxing and judo are the only combat sports that I enjoy
>>154816619unironically was, the p4p number 1 got outboxed by a 1-0 kickboxer
>>154815503I concur, Roald Dhal was right.
>>154816566the rules are even more retarded than mma3 rnds, 3 minutes. what a jokei cant get behind that
Like beating up babies.
/box/bros….Are we just fucking shit…
>>154816650that's based. i have other shit to do. 3 rounds is plenty of time for a KO.
>>154816661Both lost to boxers
>>154816626
>>154816589I do wonder if the weight going to be different on rematch. Usyk was the heaviest he ever was and Rico was still bigger without losing much on endurance and speed. And Usyk is getting older...I think Sasha losing on rematch will be fair and graceful move unless Usyk decide to retire if he feels he reached the limit of age/skill.
>>154816617Boxing is at much higher tempo, the more rounds make it easier for guys to get knocked out because of fatigue. People used to die in boxing from fatigue knockouts.
the only star left in boxing is the problem child jake paul
Goofs
>>154816671it just ends up being a chaotic decision. nobody can build themselves like that you have to give people time to edge out someone to find out who is better.
>no webms????
>>154816541This.
This is why you should just fight your fucking mandatories like you’re supposed to and not guys who you can’t get any footage of boxing and can’t gameplan against
>>154816688Rico wasn't having that problem. He had been holding his shape throughout the entire fight.
Usoyk’s legacy is dead in the water. This is what people will remember him for now.
>>154816728rico has some of the most insane stamina for a dude that size. he moves with liek 0 efficiency but was fresh whole fightit would be funny if this were tested at all and he popped. just to rain on an already ruined parade
Let that be a lesson, you can't lose focus even for a split second against Usyk
rico has a fantastic hairline. Mine? mcdonals
>>154816728Because he had way worse in Kickboxing, just look at his fight vs Ben Saddik, now that was an absolute slugfest.
>>154816636You should watch it again because that didn’t happen. Rico was impressive in many regards though. I think we all underestimated how well an elite kick boxer can do in boxing.
Rico did no damage
This is how a fight is supposed to resume after a knockdown. you are not supposed to straddle around looking for your teethhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lg2uQ1uoBJUIm not happy with the call, but Rico was barely defending himself even with the time given to him to recover. Very close call.
>>154816768>You should watch it again because that didn’t happenIt definitely did, dont care what the judges had on their scorecards. Usyk was heading towards a loss
>>154816706spam thread full of /heem/ anons
Dana & Zuffa will save this corrupted sport
>>154816706there's nothing to webm
Rico would've clinched, could've circled away, could've fired back blindly, but he just ate shots on the ropes. He could've done any of that and discouraged the ref from stopping it but he didn't.
>>154816813usyk had a crisp uppercut ngl
>>154816816Because in a fair sport, you don't get declared knocked out when you are still on your feet. Verhoeven's recovered from way worse than that.
>>154816533the bell rung alot of these punches were after https://x.com/CasualMMAinc/status/2058325647907303603boxsissies
>>154816813Ricochud getting dropped by uchad
>>154816743Are you saying Rico did better than Tyson Fury, Bongsa? >>154816755Rico didn’t hurt usyk once and got hurt multiple times, dropped, and saved from getting knocked out.
>>154816854>Rico didn’t hurt usyk oncehe hurt him several times
>>154816845It's called a technical knockout. Learn the rules. UFC has that as well.
>>154816816There is no excuse for that horrible rigged stoppage and it’s just another stain on boxing. If he is going to get KOd then fucking let him get KOd. It’s for the WBC and lineal title. Suddenly people are defending British stoppages now?
USYK = CLOWN
>>154816847>the bell rungthe clock kept counting while Rico was retrieving his mouth guard.
>>154816813Giga timed picture perfect uppercut
its called technically theyve been pulling these stunts for 100 years why would this be any different
>>154816885>If he is going to get KOd then fucking let him get KOdThere's a ref in combat sports. He has the power to stop a fight. Rico could've done all the things I listed, which any experienced boxer would do, to survive the round but he didn't.
https://x.com/fightclipz34/status/2058324647398002786RIGGEDboxing will never recover from this
>>154816912He was not taking a serious amount of damage. Horrific stoppage. If it wasn’t Rico beating Usyk you’d say that was a horrible stoppage in any other fight. He was eating those shots, moving his head well and had his hands up, not to mention he was officially up on the scorecards and should’ve been even further ahead
>>154816875It's bollocks, the man is still on his feet and fighting. It's not like his leg is snapped or his arm is broken. How the fuck can you call a technical knockout there.>>154816885They couldn't risk Verhoeven bouncing back with scoring a KO himself in the final round. He did that before several times in Kickboxing.
Usyk is a joke of a man
Let’s be honest Rico was done after this and would have got finished anyway
Here, watch some kickboxing https://streamable.com/lxk155
>>154816966Or he would’ve survived and got a draw/win
why did uysk look so shit?
>>154816816the round had already ended well before the ref got involved.
>>154816966rico has a golden chin and wont ever get KOed by usyk sissie shots
>>154816962Yeah but it wasn't any other fighter, it was a novice who didn't have the sense to protect himself. Even Peter Fury said his inexperience cost him.
ay dios mio!!!!
>>154816962My point is there is a third man in the ring, the ref, and part of boxing is to learning how to work the ref. Refs are unpredictable, jump in early or late, and they are erratic after a knock down and get carried away by the atmosphere. Leaving that fact aside is to Rico's own peril. If Rico was experienced he would've just tied up Usyk like he did most of the fight for 5 seconds and got through it. I bet Peter Fury told Rico to just survive 5 seconds but Rico didn't
>>154817006Early body shots by rico and a confusing style usyk didn't understand
This has just turned me off boxing so much. This is why boxing is dying.
>>154787691>>154787691>>154787691>>154787691>>154787691Come on over to the real sport thread
>>154816675Both lost to boxing judges and a boxing ref and a boxing megafan who has people murdered when he dislikes them
>>154817036Literally stopped after the bell. This is why boxing is rigged and shit.
>>154816991He was 100% getting knocked out next round
Fucking brit ref ruined it all.
>>154817006he fought the goat combat sports athlete of our lifetime retard that’s why
USOYK LOST, /BOX/ LOST. RICO WON, /HEEM/ WON
>>154817062Exactly, it was so close to the bell, so Rico could've easily survived into the 12th by doing anything else but let Usyk keep hitting him for free. But Rico just decided to let Usyk keep hitting him for free.
>>154817059>and a boxing megafan who has people murdered when he dislikes themwhomst?
>>154816854>Rico didn’t hurt usyk onceUnironically did wobble him a little at least twiceIt's subtle but you could see it
>>154817066you clearly never watched rico before , also sice when does sissy usyk been able to ko anybody with his gay sissy shots
>>154817021So here is what is coming out now.>Rico goes down>stands up on the 8 count>doesn't have his mouthpiece in, goes over to his corner to get the mouth piece rinsed out>obviously stalling for time to recover a bit, but its what everyone does>ref motions to stop the clock until they get the fight started again>they add ~10 seconds back to the clock when the fight starts due to Rico running it down with the mouthpiece>bell rings at the original stop time, round still had 8 or so seconds left after time was added backSo the justification is that with the 10 seconds added back to the clock the bell came too early, so it was really a stoppage at 2:56 at the latest. Not kosher and don't agree with it, but that will be the justification.
>>154817062Ref can stop a fight anytime he likes. Welcome to boxing.
>>154817059Nah
>>154817096Barely connected >>154816533
NEW for the final time>>154817104>>154817104>>154817104
>>154816896Oh I didn't realise the ref adds injury time on after every round
>>154817096It was close-ish to the backside of the bell. Watch the clip, it was a good 2 or 3 seconds after the bell before the ref even stepped in. I thought he was just stepping in to make sure Usyk stopped punching and went back to the corner.
>>154817006A big man followed the Chisora Blueprint and battered him.
>>154816963>How the fuck can you call a technical knockout there.If I was the ref in that fight I wouldn't have stopped it. But that's the ref's call, and refs are known to make dog shit calls in boxing since forever. Rico should've known not to fuck with that, just like when Parker got stopped against Wardley by fucking around and not clinching or moving away
>>154817110Usyk was never in danger of getting knocked out in that entire fight. >>154817113I’ve seen all his big fights and prime badr would have beat him
>>154817153Alright, now try to justify it while acknowledging that the round had already ended. If anyone needed stopping by the ref it was Usyk who should have been warned for throwing 5 punches after the bell.
>>154817215I'm not justifying the ref's call. For me it was an early stoppage. They do dumb shit without consequence, like when the ref stopped the action for 10 seconds to let Wardley recover against Dubois. If indeed the round ended and the ref stopped it the ref was in the wrong.Again none of this fucking matters because Rico could've had a chance to recover and try again in the 12th for the greatest upset of all time by clinching Usyk for whatever many seconds after the bell so the ref couldn't stop it. He fucked himself out of this opportunity by not doing basic defense after getting rocked.
>>154816912There are two issues you can call with the ref1) he stopped it early2) he stopped it after the bell, between roundsRe. (1) it was a close call, but Rico was defending himself, was on his feet, was aggressing and still fighting to win, after having only been knocked down once alreadyRe. (2) the bell had rang before the ref stepped in. Refs can stop fights between rounds but only generally do so if the fighter is clearly semi/unconscious or unfit to continue. A fighter who can't make it back to his corner under his own power can be stopped by the ref. And this always happens after the ref conducts a brief survey of the fighter, I mean the ref stops the round, then observes the fighter, sees that he cannot proceed to his corner, and then decides to stop it. In this case Rico was stable on his feet, actually moving (away from Usyk's punches) when the ref stepped in, was conscious and coherent, looked at the referee and spoke to him, was clearly present and aware. The ref had already decided to stop it, instesd of observing the fighter's state.The moment the bell rings, the ref should have ended the round by ensuring the separation of the boxers. At this point he has no cause to stop the fight unless he observes that one fighter is incapable of continuing beyond that point. But he didn't observe that, he let the fight go past the bell then decided it was over without checking Rico's condition. Appalling stoppage and should be overturnedIssue (3) is the brutally favouratist judging but that's separate. In another dimension Usyk won the last round and was gifted the decision. That would have been less embarrassing for the sport than what actually happened since the shitty stoppage was so blatant lol
>>154817098Turkhi lolHe was the interrogator and torturer for the new Saudi regime that took over in the coup a few years backThey murder political dissidents and critics of the regimeWere you not aware of this
>>154817321When Rico goes home tonight, he will concur with most of the boxing community that the ref stopped him early. Maybe his team will file a complaint, that has never worked in boxing.Or he could've listened to Peter Fury and clinched for five seconds. And he might've pulled off the upset in the 12th.Boxing is a fight, it's messy. The rule is protect yourself at all times. See Mayweather vs Victor Ortiz. Losing then complaining is far worse and useless than not letting a bad stoppage happen in the first place by JUST CLINCHING.
>>154817123>bell rings at the original stop timeThe ref doesn't know that there's still time on the clock though, as far as he knows bell = round overHe didn't stop the fight at the bell, he let it go (and the timing of the round is nothing to do with him and not his responsibility)He had no right to call TKO after the bell based on punches before (and after) the bellOnce the round has ended and the fighters separated, there's no danger to the boxer and the ref can observe him and then decide whether to permit the bout to continue next roundBut the ref didn't in fact end the round at all, he called a TKO after the bell without stopping the roundTotal farce
>>154817135>Oh I didn't realise the ref adds injury time on after every roundit's literally called a timeout. im not really covering for him but he objectively fucked up twice:>he gave Rico time to recover (that obviously counted against Usyk because no timeout)>and his stoppage was dogshit.
>>154817422He was defending himself and he was covering up and closing the gap to clinch lol
>>154817448>timing of the round is nothing to do with him and not his responsibility)>He had no right to call TKO after the bell based on pun100% agree, this is justification after the fact to not seem totally sweeping for Usyk.
>>154817474Evidently not since he couldn't just smother the smaller guy immediately. It's lack of experience here compounded by a jumpy ref.
