I don't know shit about boxing, so I don't really understand that final round. What was the point in apparently settling for a points decision when it looked to me like there was a 90% chance that Usyk would win it by that measure? Is it just safeguarding the possibility of getting a dodgy draw, or was his chance of knocking Usyk out long gone even if he'd tried?

With heavyweights they carry their power pretty much the entire fight so getting reckless means you can get sparked even in the final round. He was already damaged and lucky to even make it to the final round so he couldnt go for broke either way, especially when Usyk has the faster hands in any exchange. His corner probably thought Fury was winning too, boxing corners are delusional 90% of the time and afraid to tell their guy he's down.
By Kidjr Go To PostHow
Fury is just as good technically (if not better) but bigger. He's not going to get caught like AJ, he'll make him miss alot more and just break him down.

By unknown Go To PostTechnical wise they are close, Fury beats Usyk with his reach imo. Fury easily beat wallin actually, one sided fight despite having one eye the entire fight. lets bet on cash app if the fight happens.

Well one judge had Fury winning it!!!
Fury was absolutely right to go into the final rounds thinking he was the winner.
A lot of rounds were 50-50 but they always give it to someone.
I always feel that is bullshit. Rather see split rounds. Nobody deserved to win the first round and I would say the fourth round too.
Massive piece of shit, he's spent the last month trolling and trying some Trump like tactics. I hope he's banned for a long time and Haney goes after his purse.
Couple fun bets tonight on Rozanski to win by KO 7/2 and Rounds 1-3 9/1 could be a style matchup nightmare for Okolie

Two Ryan Garcia supplements test positive for Ostarine

Well this might change things. He'll still be punished in some capacity though, because the NYSAC puts the burden of what an athlete ingests on them.

Two supplements listed on doping control forms submitted by star boxer Ryan Garcia before his win over Devin Haney showed the presence of the banned substance Ostarine, according to Sports Medicine Research and Testing Laboratory (SMRTL) reports released Thursday.
The doping control forms β which were viewed by ESPN β were submitted alongside Garcia's urine-sample collections on April 19 and 20 (the day before and day of the fight), both of which returned adverse findings for Ostarine.
The supplements: raspberry-lemonade flavored NutraBio SuperCarb (which showed the presence of Ostarine at 70-2200 picograms per gram powder) and Body Health strawberry-flavored amino-acid blend (660 to 830 picograms). The other supplements Garcia listed on the forms: D3, iron, Thorne elite multivitamins and magnesium glycinate.
Paul Greene, who represented UFC stars Jon Jones and Sean O'Malley in doping cases, told ESPN on Thursday he's hopeful the presence of Ostarine in those supplements will lead to a reduced suspension for Garcia from the New York State Athletic Commission.
