Comments Thread For: Roy Jones Believes 'Uysk Beats Canelo Easy', But Cautions Moving Back Down To Cruiserweight

[Carlos Valenzuela]

Canelo has not even metioned the Heavyweight Usyk..What a shame when boxers just seek a payday..

I totally agree and know Roy has more than enough experience to make a valid point on this subject as that is what I do believe effectively ended his career.

[Boxing Goat]

Roy Jones moved up to Heavyweight and ruined his body coming back down in weight to fight Tarver. Did not look as fast or as strong at all. He is saying Usyk should fight other heavyweights since he got the belts but how come he didnt fight his mandatory David Tua?

In fairness, Roy was in a way different situation. Roy is a lot, lot smaller than Usyk and started his career at 154 and moved up to fighting a guy who was 236 lbs.

Canelo would have to be an idiot to fight Usyk at heavyweight.

Next thing you know Canelo is ducking the heavy weight champ. Is Charlo ducking Benavides? Is Benavides ducking charlo or Andrade? Yeah ok. Boxing fans are the worst that’s why ufc is way more popular. We want one guy to fight everyone but are ok with the rest to sit around fighting lesser opposition while they wait to be picked. They ALL need to step up. EVERY Benavides and Charlo opponent is smaller, slower, and less power. Why would I watch those fights?

All is this talk about a Canelo vs Usyk fight is ******-talk. Who thinks this shyyt up? It does seem to be a back-handed compliment to Canelo to even talk about him fighting a guy who is 8 inches taller, 45 lbs heavier, with an 8-inch reach advantage and to top it off one of the most skilled heavyweights of the last 25 years. Get a life folks!

It’s a major compliment to Canelo to even have conversations like this with a Heavyweight and his name tied into it.

The fight would be at CW

I just don’t know how much Usyk’s weight has actually gone up. Obviously he’d have to dehydrate for the weigh-in at cruiser but how much more than he had to do when he fought Gassiev.

truthfully, I don’t think Canelo is fighting anyone at 200. Not Makabu, not Briedis, not anyone. He’ll swoop in to scoop that 190 belt and then never again at cruiser. We’ll see…

It's only in question because Usyk was the CW champ 2 years ago and Canelo is about to fight for a CW title. Usyk would son Canelo and badly.

Why not Cheatelo vs Wilder or AJ? How much Mexican meat did we clenelo need to take to get up to 210 and bring all that power?
