The stoppage was premature, but Rico was clearly fatigued and would he have survived the 12th? Probably not.
But he should be incredibly proud of that performance. He outworked Usyk for large spells and comes out of this looking like a winner, hand raised or not. #UsykRico
Huge respect to Rico Verhoeven for that performance. He did far more against Oleksandr Usyk than any other fighter has managed.
That was a seriously compelling matchup. #UsykRico
The Port of Dover has since confirmed traffic is now “free flowing” after partners invoked Article 9 of the EES regulations to help ease congestion during the May half-term getaway.

A Czech lorry driver, Zaple, caught up in today’s Operation Brock delays has told me it took him 8 hours and 40 minutes to reach the Port of Dover from the Sevington Inland Border Facility.
He says the same journey would normally take between 30 and 45 minutes.
Operation Brock is back in place and Dover is already feeling the pressure.
This is the A20 in and out of Dover today heavy traffic, long queues and delays building as cross-Channel traffic increases.
If you’re travelling this weekend, leave extra time and plan ahead.
The delays have also affected delivery schedules, with the driver saying goods would now arrive later than planned after he was unable to reach today’s intended destination.
@Zaple01@KentTraffic Hi @Zaple01, it would be great to speak to you about your experience with Brock and the traffic delays in Dover.
Drop me a follow, and I'll give you a message.

Wardley might be bleeding and fighting with one eye nearly shut, but his chin is made of granite.
How he's still standing is unbelievable.
