    Wise counsel from Jones. Unlike the fighters at 160-175, Usyk doesn't need canelo to make big $$$s.

    The heavyweight champion is *the king". Usyk should just tell canelo, "you know where I am if you want me." Hewvyweight, no weight restrictions, come get it if you want it.

      If Usyk doesn’t fight Canelo at 190 he is ducking plain and simple

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?
          Can’t be repeated enough. You have some that have this male deficient syndrome that makes them feel better to strike out at others anonymously due to their own life deficiencies.

            I think the only inteligent move for Canelo is to let Usyk rematch Joshua, then unify with Fury. And then, with short notice, fights him at 201 lbs catchweight for the HW titles.

              And Usyk has never mentioned Canelo before this. He just responded to a ****** question by a one of those ****** youtube reporters.

                RJ knows what he is talking about, unlike some of Clenelo fans lol It would be a beat down from the jump, maxium 3-4 rounds untill Usyk knocks him out

                  Because as much as I like Roy, he started at middleweight and had to take steroids to put on enough weight to fight at heavy so realistically couldn’t have stayed there. He picked the smallest and easiest to beat champion at heavy, Ruiz. I doubt he ever had any intention to defend and only did it for legacy sake just like Canelo fighting at cruiser.

                    Roy would repeatedly have been caught for steroid abuse had he chosen to stay that high as his frame isn’t built for those divisions.

                      Neither Canelo nor Usyk brought it up. Usyk was responding to a journalists question, he wasn’t seeking a payday. More recently Usyk has talked about unifying heavyweight by fighting Fury. He’s chasing a legacy not paydays and doing pretty well at it really.
