Comments Thread For: Promoter: If Ali Can Beat The Best at That Size - So Can Usyk!

You can keep on posting this. I'll keep reminding you that it's not true.

He and Klitschko were 1 and 2 with TBRB but Klitschko got removed due to Fury's stalling. Klitschko had a fight booked and should have remained in the rankings. And I'll add that Joshua should therefore be TBRB's lineal champion on that basis. They let themselves down with that call.

Ruiz was ranked 1 by TBRB in the rematch.

Plus he has been in the top 2 heavyweights most of that period. A top 2 fight would be for belts... and he's had all but one for a while now, hence a top 2 fight would have been for Undisputed. And he's the been the only one unifying and fighting mandatories to make that happen.

U keep telling yourself Ruiz was #1 at one time and ill tell you that's not tru.

My only thought is that due to clauses & contracts it's as if only aj is alowed to fight the undesputed fight & nobody else.
He doesn't deserve it, he & Wilder were happy to duck each other & box old men in 18, he's never boxed a top 2 heavyweight, got ktfo by non punching top 15 Ruiz who wanted undesputed with Wilder but rematch clause Edward & Aj blocked it.
Now a Wilder rematch clause has blocked us getting undesputed this last weekend.
Saying all that I'll be surprised if Fury turns up for his trilogy fight.

Imagine if a young Mike Tyson came bursting through the division today, 26 fight's in a year & a half would only be 4 fight's with today's promoter's.
Even if he did rise the same the top 3 only fighting once a year with infinite not alowed to loose clauses would delay him again for year's.

This gen are a joke.

You have to win a belt or a few in joshua's case to contest for the UNDISPUTED. I have put this word in capitals for you. You are welcome

Which other boxers in your eyes deserve to be fighting for the Undisputed?

One thing is for sure. Usyk won`t get tired like Pulev or Povetkin. If Joshua`s cardio is not great, he will be in trouble.

[Noelanthony]

Let’s all hope that in this fight AJ doesn’t go to the extreme of the fighting style he used in Ruiz 2. That style is incredibly not fan friendly. It is effective, but we had to live through one Wlad and we don’t want another.

I am an AJ fan and that was the only tactic that would save him getting put on his face in the middle east. i dodged every punch RUIZ threw that night at JOSHUA

[JakeTheBoxer]

I'm worried for josh. I want Josh v fury still so hope Josh can beat usyk. But usyk worried me

I actually wanna se Fury - Usyk, the battle of the most skilled heavyweights.

One thing is for sure. Usyk won`t get tired like Pulev or Povetkin. If Joshua`s cardio is not great, he will be in trouble.

Rumors of him being at 230lbs can have a very opposite effect though

[Liondw]

He ain't no Ali, but he's very good.

[NachoMan]

1. Not a lot of elite 6’6”-6’9”, 260-290lb in Ali’s day
2. Usyk ain’t Ali

[JakeTheBoxer]

Main question is, can Usyk take a hard heavyweight punch? This question hasn`t been answered yet. That is the big mystery about this fight.

[Get em up]

I dont understand the logic here. Usyk is no Ali by any stretch of the imagination and the big heavyweights back then weren't huge in comparison. I personally dont see how anybody thinks Usyk can beat the bigger better heavyweights. I'm not sold on him just yet.
