Despite being gifted a decision on last week's undercard due to both his & his brother's close affiliation with Usyk, Daniel 'Fake Usyk' Lapin had the audacity to claim that he'd destroy BOTH Bivol & Beterbiev based on an interview from 6 months ago.
This kid has no class as well as next to no talent. Can you imagine Usyk ever talking this disrespectfully despite having ALREADY beaten Beterbiev in the amateurs?
Also, most Ukrainian's in the comments section believe he LOST last week's fight and was gifted a decision! :rofl:
I guess we all agree the guy didn't deliver anything worth watching. And the only things I remember are:
1. He was unable to keep his opponent at range even with a huge reach advantage, and
2: He kept going over the ropes (admittedly, with rough tactics on the ropes from the other guy)
How does he envision beating anybody at a higher level?
Delusion plain & simple...he thinks that hanging around with a superstar like Usyk and talking the talk automatically means he'll be able to do it whereas in reality the opposite is true. He's got a weak build for a Light Heavyweight and almost went over and was was easily pushed around the ring (and over the ropes). That coupled with a 33% KO ratio leads me to believe he'll get KTFO'd the minute he steps up and faces a REAL opponent.
He’s tall but that’s about it. Solid European level guy but doubt he goes much further unless he improves significantly.
Agreed...he's got a flimsy build for a Light Heavyweight which leads me to believe he CAN'T take a shot plus zero power (33% KO ratio). Therefore, I think he's already hit his ceiling having won a couple of international titles and won't go much further (unless Usyk pays somebody to take a dive).

He was actually talking about his Bingo sessions on Sunday mornings
Lapin is crap but a lot of 'ardcores were rating him just because he's part of Usyks camp.
A lot of Ukrainian's in the comments section of his fight video think he's TRASH and was gifted a decision.
The guy must be the Ukrainian version of Charlie Zelenoff :cool:
Haha that's EXACTLY who he is plus they even look alike and have the same slapping style.
Good analogy!
