“I think he won.” The former champion shocked with his opinion on the rematch between Usyk and Fury

Emmanuel Rodriguez disagrees with the judges’ decision”, — write: sport.ua

Former world champion Emmanuel Rodriguez spoke about the rematch between the Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk and a British heavyweight Tyson Fury:

“Personally, I think that Fury won. Maybe I’m biased because I prefer the intelligent style of boxing. I think he dominated more rounds. But it was a close match, so there’s no heist, no clear winner or loser. The fight was given to Usyk – the judges saw it that way. If they gave Fury, the judges would see it differently. But, fortunately for Usyk, he won this fight, and now there will definitely be no trilogy.

I won’t lie, I could see Fury getting confused in the last few rounds. I think his weight just wore him out, it was too much for him. I don’t know why he keeps gaining so much weight. He spends all his strength in the first six rounds, and in the second half of the fight he no longer has that energy. These are small mistakes and habits that are difficult to correct because they are bad habits. But I am sure that Tyson should have been awarded the victory. I saw his winnings, but what is is is what is. It happens like that. Usyk won, and I congratulate him, because he deserves it.”
