Meh great fighter, not that intriguing at HW. Should be a pretty easy payday. Usyk doesn't have anywhere near the power to deal with AJ IMHO.
Very foolish from usyk if true. Why rush?
Interesting response. You want Crawford to fight Spence immediately but suggest Usyk wait rather than fighting the best HWT.
You wonder why posters have the opinion of you they do.
good luck getting a decision victory in the uk
Whose alt is this? I get this feeling but Usyk could dominate like Raheem did Morales and force the judges to give the decision to the "non house" fighter. The scores of course will likely be closer than they should.
If Usyk can handle AJ's power I think he wins. I just don't know if he can overcome the size difference. good luck getting a decision victory in the uk
They fought at CW. I thought HW would have made more sense to get Usyk’s feet wet...but they didn’t see it that way.
It was Bellew's decision. He said he would only accept the fight if it was for all 4 CW titles.
That wouldn't make sense.
Usyk needs a few fights at Heavyweight, not just one, before fighting the two best at that weight. The two best being Joshua and Fury.
They need to keep building his brand in the UK, so having more fights before an AJ fight would make sense. Usyk vs. Joshua could be a big fight. It has a lot of potential.
Also, if Joshua and Wilder cannot agree to fight maybe they can use Usyk to take away Wilder's WBC title.
They can make Usyk the mandatory for the WBC title and force him on Wilder.
I also wouldn't be shocked if Usyk's next fight will be at Cruiserweight. He is supposed to comeback in April, but I'm not sure how many top level Heavyweights are going to be available. Some are waiting their turn for Joshua or Wilder and some are going to be difficult to make due to politics.
That was a cruiserweight defense.
I doubt the fight will happen next but if it does Usyk will win but not sure that's enough on the scores.
Bellew dropped down to cruiser to fight him. Usyk has the skills to compete at heavy, just not sure if he has the chin.

Cruiserweight. Though honestly Bellew's not really a proper HW either so it's doubtful it made a significant difference.
Thanks guys. My bad. I thought it was a HWT fight.

Usyk is far more talented, but you can’t say it’s not a cherry pick if it’s Usyk’s first fight at heavyweight.
Especially if you called wilder/Fury a cherry pick
