If Usyk fights AJ we'll NEVER see Fury vs AJ

[sicko]

It's the Heavyweight Division so Fury fighting Wilder again is VERY RISKY as is AJ fighting Usyk

All it takes is 1 Mistake, 1 Punch and all of a sudden you look up and the Landscape of the Heavyweight Divisions is completely different as seen with Ruiz

Being a fan is one thing but none of these guys are Unbeatable (Clearly when it comes to AJ and Wilder who both already suffered defeats), they all will Suffer Defeats...MULTIPLE Defeats (AJ and Wilder) and yes Usyk can absolutely beat AJ with the right Game Plan. AJ is a bit stiff so I think Usyk style could give him all type of problems. Styles make Fights! With Usyk while he doesn't have Big Power, he is the type of guy that can surprise you with something you don't see coming because he has good timing. The punches you don't see coming can do the most damage regardless if you have Big Power or not.

Stop with the Groupie/Fanboy Garbage and acting like Usyk winning is just IMPOSSIBLE

Ruiz blistered AJ and in the rematch AJ was running scared and every punch that landed or got close to landing AJ was rattled. Usky will blister AJ.



Saw the Chisora fight and I'm saying it.

You two sound like dogwank fanboy's.

AJ got a glass jaw, confirmed. He'll get outboxed and if Ruiz can lay him out, Usyk can too,

Not only does AJ have a suspect chin, he has a poor gas tank and has suffered a considerable decline in confidence. I'm not certain that 231 lbs Usyk will be better overall than 211 lbs Usyk but he will certainly punch at least a bit harder. Parker's power was enough to keep a more confident AJ at bay and Ruiz's power was enough to splatter and stop him. And Usyk may well punch harder than Parker and Ruiz. Aside from this Usyk has other considerable advantages: speed, agility, stamina, southpaw stance, skill, intelligence, undefeated record. Only moronic fanboys could think that Usyk wasn't a KO threat to AJ.

I expect AJ to win though. Considering what's at stake down the road and AJ's status as a cash cow, he will be given a robbery decision if necessary if it goes to the cards. And out of the two he's more likely to get a KO or KD because of his size and power (and possible referee corruption calling a KD a slip or a slip a KD respectively).

Usyk's workrate will drown AJ and his small tank and AJ's chin is so bad that once Usyk starts putting punches together it's lights out. No need for rigged judges.

The fight will happen and this result will happen. I'm by no means a fan of Usyk either.

Usyk will have to be aggressive if he wants a chance to win the fight, so if he and his team are intelligent (they surely are) and haven't been bought off (unlikely) then Usyk should look for the KO. Whether he will actually do so though is far from certain to me.

Natively, Usyk is pretty aggressive, no?

I do laugh at people that think Usky who struggled to hurt Chisora and Chazz Witherspoon is going to worry AJ.

This will be like swatting a fly to AJ.

Usyk should have stayed at CW he would have been undefeated for years there. He was head and shoulders above anyone in that division just not the one he's in now.

Usyk needs a KO. And unless he gets it then we would see the sort of Oscar De la Hoya v Felix strum decision which gave Oscar the UD so that his fight with Bernand Hopkins can go ahead. So in this scenario AJ fights with Fury would go ahead as long as Fury gets past Wilder.

I think Joshua is at his peak rn. Usyk just doesn't have the power to keep Joshua off him.

Natively, Usyk is pretty aggressive, no?

He can be but against big punchers he tends to dance around, picking at them with jabs, fast combinations and counters. His best KO's in the pros are Huck, Mchunu and Bellew (all late) but he did not manage to KO Glowacki, Hunter (close) Breidis, Gassiev or Chisora. AJ has the power and reach to keep Usyk more honest than usual and he has the stature and weight to provide durability. It's a tall order and judging from his KO record in the past, he will need to up his levels of aggression against AJ to win. But this will put Usyk in the line of fire as well. If he's aggressive, it will depend a lot on how much pressure and damage Usyk can apply and how his durability and stamina will hold up relative to AJ's.

Usyk has less chance of defeating Joshua than Wilder has of defeating Fury. At least Wilder has the bomb.

Usyk’s only chance would be if Joshua suffered an injury, turned an ankle or blew out his shoulder like Vitali.
