This is how you accept loss with grace. Bellew didn't make any excuses and he acknowledged the superiority of his opponent. And then wished him the best.
What else could he do after bouncing of the canvas like a baskeball? After all the disrespect before and during the fight, he got what he deserved. How can you disrespect an undefeated man like that?
@@God1stProductions Well, he could've made excuses. Plenty of athletes keep doing things like that. Deontay Wilder's full of excuses. Don't even get me started on some of the MMA fighters. But, you know, I don't recall Bellew being disrespectful toward Usyk. At least, not in a manner that's dramatic or sensationalized, as is often the case with some fighters.
@@TAROTAI there are people who have never played a sport in their life who still end up with early on-set Alzheimer's and dementia. Stop being a soyboy.
I have NEVER heard a crowd more silent from a knockout in my entire life they were shook. Absolute master class in boxing from two fighters at the peak of their technical prowess
Dude, there's no way to get in Usyk's head. He's loving every minute of the head games. He's so far beyond those that attempts tickle him and his eyes light up.
Aye. He had I think 355 amateur fights with 15 defeats, he's seen every type of fighter and tactic there is. Gonna need a lot more than head games to beat him...
Usyk is so well-prepared physically and mentally, you just can't get into his head. He studies his opponents into the tiniest detail, adapts to them in so far as to benefit from their weak points but still does "his own thing". The war is won before it even began by way of preparation and Usyk is a master in preparation. He has a massive amateur record of over 300 fights, thus massive experience. What we now see is the product of experience, talent and hard work. It is very very difficult to beat him. As we see even for "bigger" guys like AJ. I have the feeling that even with AJ, Usyk didn't give 100% - he set AJ up for the second fight and simply outboxed him comfortably. At the moment I see only Tyson Fury having a chance of beating Usyk. But he has to be prepared better than ever because Usyk will be his most difficult fight.
@@kiboma4209 I was gonna say weight but Usyk is not going for the knockout and prob won't get knocked out by tyson so how much of a difference does that really make
@@Cristopher-S.G That literally has nothing to do with "physics". There's a stark difference between a solid object with no variations and a human body. Your chin doesn't become better with a weight increase, your brain doesn't suddenly prevent CTE, your liver doesn't randomly create self regenerative properties. Going on your personal definition of "simple physics", Wilder at 215lbs shouldn't be able to KO people in one punch, especially men 30 - 40lbs bigger than him. If you aren't even versed in the most remedial forms of physics, you should probably not comment on their simplicity. If he went up in weight, his current build suggests it would be an increase via muscle mass versus body fat, which means he's going to be sacrificing some speed, he could even lose some power, and as in many scenarios, his now 'super body punch absorption" abilities might be very suspect.
Beautiful thing to watch, guys trying to rip each other apart, and after all is set and done, giving the respect to each other in a very kind and respectfull way. I like both of these guys, great fight from great fighters.
I doubted Usyk because his average performance in his first 2 fights in heavyweight. I forgot how scary he was, and now he beat and almost knock out AJ, awesome..
Bellew was in his prime , this was the best performance of him . He catch Usyk mentally tired , I mean 3 months before this fight Usyk fighted Gassiev . Without any rest Usyk faced Bellew . If Usyk was fresh it would be worse for Bellew.
@Josh warner Lol when ? at 30 years when he lost by ko to Stevenson ? when he made draw against level C fighter Chilemba or he lost to level C Cleverly ? Ages are just numbers , doesn't matter , for every fighter prime time is different ...For someones from 25 to 30 , for someones 30-40 it's different . Mayweather at 37-8 was schooling the best fighters , Hopkins prime time was 37-46 , for Sergio Martinez 32-37,Wladimir Klitschko's prime time was 30-38 . The best time of the most of pro boxers is the time between 30-35. I have watched many fights of Bellew and against Usyk it was the best shape of Bellew . in this fight Bellew was in his best shape but Usyk was tired , he didn't have any rest , he became the WBSS champion and after 2 months he take this fight . Yo know what Bellew has never been level A fighter , he was excellent promoting .
@Josh warner You're on drugs. Bellew fought much better here than the Haye fight. He only won that fight because Haye's body broke down, and even then he almost lost it. Now put on the pointy cap and go sit in the corner. o.O
50% more jabs than other guys in the division... Thats stats is just amazing! And what about the angles he finds to make his combos. It looks like he predicts his opponents movements few seconds before they make it. His brain calculate almost without no mistake.This must be very demotivating to other guys. I am not even talking about how amazing is the accuracy of his body movement, in combination with his fast legs, all these skills makes him almost untouchable. Another important tactic is the strenght of his shots, he doesn't use his hole power to punch, more important for him is the accuracy and the speed of his shots... With such a busy right jab in a combo with his left punch he methodically imposes his will on all opponents. Usyk maybe is not one of the strongest punchers, but this imaybe is exactly most interesting thing that impresses all boxing analyzers.He doesn't look to KO at any cost, his most important task when he steps on the ring is to pick on his plan as closely as possible, this is very important to remain focused on his defense all 12 rounds.. His strong discipline makes some of his opponents to test his mentality and get him out of his comfort zone but usually they enter into his own territory, All of his fights I've watched so far I have not seen him sumbit to the emotions. For me his style of fighting is the pure beauty of boxing sport, to outbox the opponent. Its not always required a boxing match to finish with KO, so we can call it was attractive.
Beautiful comment and yeah I’ve been watching old Usyk fights and man he really is a one of a kind, a different fighter who is also extremely disciplined, focus and is mentally strong, he even fought for his country. The world of boxing needs more people like Usyk since he’s also such a humble and respectful person
I don't know the announcers were talking about. Usyk began to break him down in rd 3, when Bellew began walking away. And Usyk gave him no chance to take a breather.
While I agree that is what happens and feel sometimes its questionable, I prefer it to RUclips where most want to call other fighters "bums" because they lose to another great fighter. You do also have to consider that a fighter like Bellew has a loyal following because of what he has done in the past and so in his final fight at 35 deserves some praise regardless of the outcome of a fight no one expected him to win.
There is a thing called Earth's Chakras. Guess where the heart chakra biggest mass of concentrated frequence is? Hint :its in great britan whole continent
Usyk is in negotiations already for a fight in February against either Chisora or Parker. To be announced soon. So, Aj vs IBF mandatory ( pulev) then .. Aj vs WBO mandatory (could be Usyk)..
@GreatPolishWingedHussars It's more about the fact that a knockout is not what Usyk is betting on and it's not his signature move. Usyk is about phenomenal technique, speed, stamina and battle IQ.
Fury should give a call to Bellew and ask him to teach him how to lose with extreme elegance and honor. Really, all my respect to Bellew, it showed that before being a boxer, you need to know how to be a man.
Great fight again by Usyk. He had control right from the bell. Usyk kills with movement and leaves them fatigued and then he picks the pace up for the ko.. great fighter man, hats off to the champ
İ agree he was doing way better with them counters and moving around the ring way more. 1 thing for sure is Uysk doesn't have an answer for body shots, reason why I think he likes to have the fight in his pace he draws his opponents right into it and controls the fight. He also fights south pole great he keeps stepping on the outside of fighters left leg and punches straight left or straight jab. The funny thing is he does it all night and they can't adjust to it..
@@TÜRK_ALP " 1 thing for sure is Uysk doesn't have an answer for body shots" because thats his and Loma's style. They like to move to off angle and throw flurries that confound the opponent. Problem is, doing so leaves the body open and you cant matrix your body AS you punch because your elbows are up. Thats why they get caught going in vs fighters willing to trade shots.
After all the people that lost Tony is the only true gentleman… he’s a legend and actually he gave Usyk his hardest fight I think, he just got tired… legend
Charles Ndung'u It’s adrenaline, getting exited in a fight is normal. He is just more open about it than most. The rest are more absorbed in analyzing than enjoying the fight.
Imagine fighting fedor he dont smile he dont smurk he just looks like he is walking done the street while destroying you back in the day that look would break a man
@@dionshelby5494 He was already P4P GOAT. Now he's won more belts than any cruiserweight or heavyweight if we combine what he's done in both divisions.
Two great sportsmen. Bellew really improved by the time this fight came around and looked magnificent against a guy who is a real step up. Have a lot of respect for Bellew, he scraped and fought from the bottom and showed that he could be in there when he defeated Haye. In this fight he has superb head and foot movement. As far as Usyk goes, whats not to like about the guy lol? He took a boring style and improved it into something that highlights his movements, angles and set ups.
@@philinn4788 Yeah well... the ammy style has been criticized as such by trainers as far back as the 1800s so stick it up your rear... It is hardly one man's opinion.
What's boring about a southpaw that has a such amazing footwork and using on angles? He is so fast, sets traps and punches hard. He is one of the few boxers that are entertaining to watch.
@@drdoom5516 There are levels to the game... Usyk has incredible skills I don't dispute that point. If you look at the base style of Amateur fighters, certain habits emerge: Movement is primarily linear, footwork is very basic, punch selection is also very basic. Usyk and Lomo have certainly taken the style to a great level... But compare fighters like James Toney and Tyson Fury, who were trained from an early age and have a style grounded in professional fighting and you can see a contrast. My initial point was that this point I am making has been in boxing for a very long time... we see more fighters who have been amateur fighters for most of their career, and certain traits emerge. Watch how Usyk fought Chisora... you can see bad habits that he later corrected, like moving back in straight lines, lack of head movement, etc. Hope this clarifies my point of view.
Quizás nadie lea este comentario, pero usyk es un caballero la mayoría después de un ko como ese, hasta yo salgo corriendo y empiezo a gritar, Pero el no, lo primero que hizo fue asegurarse de que su rival esté bien y eso es de respetar
USYK can beat any of those hvywt Fury is knockkneed uncoordinated in his legs Wallin did well against him Wilder had hard time with lefty Ortiz USYK is a lot more skilled younger and faster than the 51 yr old Ortiz
Joshua fight like chick 🐥 always!!! When Ruiz knocked him down,he didn't show heart of the Champion!!! Cause he never was truly champion! He's paper Champion for years,beating once 40+ year's old Klitschko. Avoiding toughest opponent, Wilder!!! What kind of Champion you are???? You're missing one belt and you don't go for it? I mean it's so obviously!!! He was terrified of Wilder! Real Champions will FIGHT'S for free,for glory,for legacy!!! He was already milionaire! They couldn't agree about money Lol!!! How Fury and Wilder agree for 5minutes? Cause they have heart of the Champion's!!! Like Tony Bellow shows... Heart of the Champion!!! He's not my favourite,but he step in!!! Usyk is just another level!!! I followed him for last 5 years... I was hoping that this will going to happen!!! He outclassed two more heavyweight,and he outclass Joshua! Like teacher and student!!! Joshua is happy cause he didn't want to knocking him down at the end! Joshua was already half knocked out 😳🤣
Aleksandar Mitic,Hello from BG ,neighbor.Well...to get floored some of Klitschko's ,you have to be in top 5 of the world.That's it.Just Usyk was a way better prepared..or his level is far ahead from AJ's level.Who knows?
I'll never forget when people said he was to small for HW... after he beat his first HW opponent Witherspoon.. people said he is was small for Chisora.. after that they said he was to small for AJ.. and now he is to small for Tyson Fury.. I don't know if he beats Fury or not but if he does.. I cant wait to see who is the next guy Usyk is going to be to small for
@@kenzhegaliev_68 the context was: “I can’t wait to see who is the next guy Usyk is going to be too small for(after he beats Fury)” . I replied “after Fury they would say he is too small for Joyce and Wilder”. Of course the comment was before Joyce had lost to Zang and Wilder to Parker. Those too had images of boogeymen back then. So basically I just agreed with comment above that they would always try to underrate Usyk and don’t give him credit he deserves. But now I see quite the opposite. Even part of Fury’s fanboys now admit Usyk is a special one
@@roybabineaux5353 Spong? The dude failed a PED test. Usyk ducks no one, he wouldn't be moving up to heavyweight and vacating his CW titles if that was the case.
Usyk for a tall fighter has strong legs and agilities normally not seen in taller boxers. Shows great patience waiting for his fight plan to open up not giving in to a slugfest until he is ready.
What a class in ring and out of it. Usyk, Lomachenko two magician's... Huge, huge respect for Bellew, i replay that momment when Usyk showing him that respect. But on the end of the day Usyk is better on every level without any question. IS great to watch, movement, jab, hook's, inteligents. That can be key to win against not the most inteligent boxer Wilder and for sure Usyk have power to broke cheen of A.J. Great great box!
We witnessed utmost respect displayed by both fighters towards each other. How nice a place the world would be to live if the elite and world leaders could learn such attitude towards each and every one of us. Greed and selfishness could be gone and would be no need to wage wars, to exploit the poor or unfortunate etc... My total respect to both fighters ! Usyk and Crawford, can't wait to see them fight again!
This is how you accept loss with grace. Bellew didn't make any excuses and he acknowledged the superiority of his opponent. And then wished him the best.
Yep, and now he became an awesome and humble commentator.Really a great athlete.

i just love the fact that Usyk keeps his hands up at all times. Incredible fighter
I was also impressed with that. Someone trained him very well from a young age.

Usyk showed real class at the end, letting Bellew know how much respect he had for him as a warrior.
I'ts not hard to show respect when you are the winner. It's hard to show respect when you are the loser.
Can't compare Bellew's loss to Fury's. Bellew lost as a true warrior, humble in defeat, and accepting of his loss. What a great boxer.
Usyk is like Big version of Lomachenko. Unbelievable stamina, amazing work rate.
My thoughts exactly. First time I've seen him, and those were my thoughts too.

Tony Bellew made this a really competitive match (entertaining to watch, respects to both)
Imagine fighting a lad that smiles when you land a hit! 😢😢😱😱
Charles Ndung'u It’s adrenaline, getting exited in a fight is normal. He is just more open about it than most. The rest are more absorbed in analyzing than enjoying the fight.
Well i do sometimes smile after i get caught with something tricky, so i guess its kinda normal.
It’s just acknowledging, yea you got me nothing more
Badically all of GGG's fights.
Imagine fighting fedor he dont smile he dont smurk he just looks like he is walking done the street while destroying you back in the day that look would break a man
We don't see anywhere near enough of the cruiserweight division.
Because theres very few CWs worth watching.
Viddal Riley will be a future champ in a few years
We really need less divisions
Usyk is an amazing fighter, I like his boxing style.
Rewatching ready for the AJ fight.
Usyk is one of the GOATS of boxing now.
@@TheStraightestWhitest 😀
@@TheStraightestWhitest recency bias
@@dionshelby5494 He was already P4P GOAT. Now he's won more belts than any cruiserweight or heavyweight if we combine what he's done in both divisions.
Two great sportsmen. Bellew really improved by the time this fight came around and looked magnificent against a guy who is a real step up. Have a lot of respect for Bellew, he scraped and fought from the bottom and showed that he could be in there when he defeated Haye. In this fight he has superb head and foot movement. As far as Usyk goes, whats not to like about the guy lol? He took a boring style and improved it into something that highlights his movements, angles and set ups.
your characterisation of uskys style as boring style highlights your lack of maturity and low level boxing knowledge
@@philinn4788 Yeah well... the ammy style has been criticized as such by trainers as far back as the 1800s so stick it up your rear... It is hardly one man's opinion.
What's boring about a southpaw that has a such amazing footwork and using on angles? He is so fast, sets traps and punches hard. He is one of the few boxers that are entertaining to watch.
@@drdoom5516 There are levels to the game... Usyk has incredible skills I don't dispute that point. If you look at the base style of Amateur fighters, certain habits emerge: Movement is primarily linear, footwork is very basic, punch selection is also very basic.
Usyk and Lomo have certainly taken the style to a great level... But compare fighters like James Toney and Tyson Fury, who were trained from an early age and have a style grounded in professional fighting and you can see a contrast. My initial point was that this point I am making has been in boxing for a very long time... we see more fighters who have been amateur fighters for most of their career, and certain traits emerge.
Watch how Usyk fought Chisora... you can see bad habits that he later corrected, like moving back in straight lines, lack of head movement, etc. Hope this clarifies my point of view.
Usyk is a beast
Usyk is respectful. Great fighter
Usyk is a phenomenal boxer. I won almost everything. I hope he'll win the fight against Fury tomorrow.
Quizás nadie lea este comentario, pero usyk es un caballero la mayoría después de un ko como ese, hasta yo salgo corriendo y empiezo a gritar, Pero el no, lo primero que hizo fue asegurarse de que su rival esté bien y eso es de respetar
I never seen that footwork in heavyweight ever. His footwork look so special. Look like Loma
Lomas father coach Loma and Usyk
Ever heard of Muhammad Ali?
Tyson Fury? That man has hella skills at HW. His footwork, head movement. Best HW I've seen for awhile
@@thelegend6911 he moves well but nowhere near as fast as usyk he is very fast for a man his size too tho
@@aleksdamo4178 20kg difference
Look at the respect between them two awesome love them both. Love Bellew his a great guy
Emotional seeing bellew crying man. But I have to commend usyk for showing such respect and humility. This is why I love boxing
Usyk vs AJ next, lets see if he can perform like that against someone much stronger and heavier. I really hope so, Usyk is a great guy.
nah, he's gonna get knocked out, anyway i'm pretty sure AJ is fighting Pulev first
its filip hrgovic coming for joshua coz usyk is small..he is fast and tough and who knows maybe wins but its really hard
USYK can beat any of those hvywt Fury is knockkneed uncoordinated in his legs Wallin did well against him Wilder had hard time with lefty Ortiz USYK is a lot more skilled younger and faster than the 51 yr old Ortiz
Chisora is next test for Usyk
Here after Usyk beat AJ.. never seen Usyk fight before :)
Great fight and I love the respect after the fight. Hats off to both of them.
If match organizers did not stop round 12 six seconds earlier, Joshua would finish the same way as Bellew.
did you see that kindness and sportsmanship at the end my friend.. these people are fxcking legends
Tony Bellew deserves my respect! Thumbs up!... Alexander Usyk ... great champion....
Tony Bellew is a slick operator. He did much better than any heavyweight against Usyk
12:24 That stare-down was the definition of cold-blooded
The respect that everyone should have 🙌🙌 Both warriors
Bro, tony kissed Usyk's forehead like 15 times
Looks like Tony Bellow put more of a fight than Anthony Joshua did 😂
Joshua fight like chick 🐥 always!!! When Ruiz knocked him down,he didn't show heart of the Champion!!! Cause he never was truly champion! He's paper Champion for years,beating once 40+ year's old Klitschko. Avoiding toughest opponent, Wilder!!! What kind of Champion you are???? You're missing one belt and you don't go for it? I mean it's so obviously!!! He was terrified of Wilder! Real Champions will FIGHT'S for free,for glory,for legacy!!! He was already milionaire! They couldn't agree about money Lol!!! How Fury and Wilder agree for 5minutes? Cause they have heart of the Champion's!!! Like Tony Bellow shows... Heart of the Champion!!! He's not my favourite,but he step in!!! Usyk is just another level!!! I followed him for last 5 years... I was hoping that this will going to happen!!! He outclassed two more heavyweight,and he outclass Joshua! Like teacher and student!!! Joshua is happy cause he didn't want to knocking him down at the end! Joshua was already half knocked out 😳🤣
@@Coa_Kralj_Coa_The_King No one cares
Aleksandar Mitic,Hello from BG ,neighbor.Well...to get floored some of Klitschko's ,you have to be in top 5 of the world.That's it.Just Usyk was a way better prepared..or his level is far ahead from AJ's level.Who knows?
Joshua is the most overrated fighter of all time. He's lucky he got out of the Tyson Fury fight
Mr no heart exposed once again.
Usyk is such a respectful champion even after defeating an opponent he gives them so much praise.👍
I'll never forget when people said he was to small for HW... after he beat his first HW opponent Witherspoon.. people said he is was small for Chisora.. after that they said he was to small for AJ.. and now he is to small for Tyson Fury.. I don't know if he beats Fury or not but if he does.. I cant wait to see who is the next guy Usyk is going to be to small for
Too small for Joyce and wilder
TKO 9 raund Fuiry😅
@@pavloryzhkovUsyk champion🏆
@@kenzhegaliev_68 the context was: “I can’t wait to see who is the next guy Usyk is going to be too small for(after he beats Fury)” . I replied “after Fury they would say he is too small for Joyce and Wilder”. Of course the comment was before Joyce had lost to Zang and Wilder to Parker. Those too had images of boogeymen back then.
So basically I just agreed with comment above that they would always try to underrate Usyk and don’t give him credit he deserves.
But now I see quite the opposite. Even part of Fury’s fanboys now admit Usyk is a special one
That was the best boxing match I’ve ever watched!
for a moment i thought bellew was wearing flip- flops with socks
ahaha same
Ahahaha
Two gentlemen, from the first to the last minute. Beautiful.
Fury should lean how to loss like Bellew
Hearn to Bellew before the fight: don't worry this guy has no power, worst case scenario is a decision loss
Hearn after Round 8: what have I done
46:55 hit and bellew was done.
his head almost flew away
Only complaint with this video is the commentators talking over the entrances and crowd. That's literally one of the best parts of the fight
Who's here after he "shook the heavyweight division up" 🤣🔥
Probably some of the best fight commentary I have heard.
Cause it's DAZN commentary recorded after the fight
Usyk's stare reminds me of something from a horror movie.
The guy in the bond movie with the gold teeth and lurch too of the Adams familly. !
Well he the man right now.i like the way he look focus!
wow your life is sad
Usyk needs to fight more often
He will.
Its hard when no one wants to fight you
@@Hassanmassan1111 nobody wants to fight Usyk phahah, Usyk just duck Delwelko, Takam, Sponge to fight Chazz Witherspoon lol
@@roybabineaux5353 Spong? The dude failed a PED test.
Usyk ducks no one, he wouldn't be moving up to heavyweight and vacating his CW titles if that was the case.
@@roybabineaux5353 dumb....
What a finish that was. That left to get Bellew going then the crisp 1-2. Usyk is so composed.
52:28
«Well you could think that he could beat some heavyweights»
This aged so well…
Greatest sportsmanship I've ever seen after smoking a guy !
Real warrior usyk
He goes to other people back garden to fight them, that makes him is a true warrior/fighter with a great spirit who has no fear.
What a couple of exceptional athletes. And I take my hat off for Tony Bellew. Going out in style. True sportsmanship!
"The greatest man I've ever shared the ring with". That's a powerful statement coming from a man who went toe to toe with the great Adonis Creed
Slava! Respect from your neighbor Poland. Usyk is a true Slav fighter.
Legend in the making Forsure
That was a great fight. Tony bowed out gracefully.
Usyk needs to learn how to move his head off the line as he jabs. He'll catch something nasty at HW if he doesn't.
Agree
Yes
Red HawK15 Or that Charles Martin quick slip of the jab then right hand
Usyk misses too often and against physically bigger and stronger opposition will get KO'd by a counter punch.
Agreed. He has quite a chin though. I suddenly want to see him against Fury.
This was a fantastic fight
Usyk so patient and never really makes mistakes. That fight against Tyson fury just molded his already legendary career
Great footwork from Usyk
Usyk seems to really enjoy it when he occasionally gets hit in the face. Crazy guy!
Usyk for a tall fighter has strong legs and agilities normally not seen in taller boxers.
Shows great patience waiting for his fight plan to open up not giving in to a slugfest until he is ready.
The ref doesn't know what to do with his hands.
He is trying to solve 2x2.
Ahahaha hahaaha wtffeeeckkk looks hi af
👐👉👈☝️✌️👌
It’s like watching a big version of Lomachenko
no its not, lomachenko is always going forward throwing combinations
great boxing of 2 great boxers, not just punchers, a pleasure to watch - chapeau!
What a class in ring and out of it. Usyk, Lomachenko two magician's... Huge, huge respect for Bellew, i replay that momment when Usyk showing him that respect. But on the end of the day Usyk is better on every level without any question. IS great to watch, movement, jab, hook's, inteligents. That can be key to win against not the most inteligent boxer Wilder and for sure Usyk have power to broke cheen of A.J.
Great great box!
We witnessed utmost respect displayed by both fighters towards each other. How nice a place the world would be to live if the elite and world leaders could learn such attitude towards each and every one of us. Greed and selfishness could be gone and would be no need to wage wars, to exploit the poor or unfortunate etc... My total respect to both fighters ! Usyk and Crawford, can't wait to see them fight again!
How did you manage to put Crawfor in this after all the praising, its eemed youre talking about usyk and bellew
@jangolub8240 Those two are my favorites and Canelo too.
