    haha usyk toyed with bellew. that was basically a show for the crowd getting him into the UK market. probably the easiest fight of his career

      And do u do it now with canelo? How about arreola or vitali Klitschko? What about Roy Jones Jr? Maybe Evander Holyfield or Jamey toney? So many boxers have been busted yet u single out fury, it's transparent, that's why he's mocking u.

        Obviously there's exceptions but Joshua is just so much bigger and stronger and if he imposes his size it's gonna be a real issue for Usyk.

        Usyk did fight a heavy guy in Chisora but Chisora lacks in so many areas compared to AJ he's arguably only got a bit better chin and more stamina but AJ is levels above everywhere else.
        Yea chisora's chin and stamina are what makes him such a good watch imo

          U didn't watch the fight, bellew was boxing rings around him for the first few rounds until he made the ****** decision to mock him just before the bell of round 2 or 3 and caught a huge punch mid taunt which rocked bellew badly and the fight changed at that point... I'm not saying usyk wouldn't have beaten him anyway if it wasn't for that, but bellew showed that usyk isn't the best boxer out there

            skill will get you far, but if you can't get the respect of a man that you're giving up size and strength to, sometimes skill won't always get the job done. Unless Usyk is using roids as holyfield did, Joshua is gonna wreck him. And I don't even like Joshua..

              Yeah i don't agree with Tyson here.

              Usyk got skills and he's a tough mofo. He's a dangerous opponent and I give credit to AJ if he fights him.

              50/50 fight for me.

                Fury is funny. Usyk is a lot more credible than his upcoming opponent.

                  Taller with more reach, a bit lighter.
                  Povetkin has been a heavyweight his entire career.

                  He's no more smaller than Usyk than george Foreman was smaller than Usyk.

                      Hes shorter and has less reach but is 5lbs heavier (assuming Usyk hasnt gained more weight which he apparently has). He basically doesnt have any physical advantages over Usyk, especially at 39 as he was when he fought AJ. So the idea that Usyk is too small and puny to give AJ trouble is just weird.
