    Why does Joshua have to be overrated?

    I mean, he is by his fanbase but what's wrong with saying Usyk is just that good? Yesterday had a big fight feel and it was a competitive 12 rounds. Lol you guys suck the life out of everything...

      He's definitely a flawed fighter but I don't have any hate for the guy. When I watched Usyk do something great yesterday the Matchroom fc really didn't cross my mind...

        Because his two losses come from a guy with tlttles and a smaller guy who started at cw.

          Because Usyk isn't all that good. It's hilarious watching jackasses who were ****ting on Usyks heavyweight fights now make out as if he's some kind boxing savant who can best everyone in the division. Joshua just isn't that good. His performance yesterday was embarrassing. Chisora put up a better fight. I was one whose actually been rating Usyks performance against Chisora for months. But he did show some vulnerabilities, one of them being his need to take off rounds and his slow start.

          Usyk said it his damn self. He never considered Joshua special. He says he found the fight yesterday even easier than he initially suspected.

            That's why.

            It's no slight on Usyk, though. He put on a very good boxing performance.

              Did Usyk look good in his previous heavyweight fights? Seems like that was a fair critique.

                He's an Olympic gold medalist so many people thought he'd be similar to Lennox Lewis or Wladimir Klitschko. He's not. I don't see him ever going on a run like that. He's a very good heavyweight but not at top tier level

                  Because they can’t just say that Usyk fought the better fight yesterday, and give him credit.

                    Maybe but it seems like some are saying both? Usyk deserves credit and AJ isn't good. Like when people said Fury great because he beat Wilder, who was a one trick pony and never beat anybody.
