    I see the WBC placed him back in their rankings. Last time I checked he wasn't ranked by amy of the major bodies, most likely because of inactivity.

      Breazale gave Otto a tough fight who gave Fury a decent fight. Styles make fights, but I wonder how difficult will Fury be for Usyk. Something tells me Usyk's fight with Fury will be easier than most people think.

        You thought Breazeale gave him a tough fight? I respect your opinion, but I thought Otto beat him from pillar to post. Otto isn't heavy handed but he outlanded Breazeale 232-91 (jabs 103 to 37 and power punches 129-54). Otto seemed to fade a bit down the stretch but he may have punched himself out. I thought Breazeale may have won a couple rounds at most.

        As for the Fury/Wallin fight, while the Swede had early success landing (which caused the cut), I do think the gash completely changed Fury's strategy and he had to push for the stoppage and make it a dog fight. Fury had no clue if the fight would get stopped (it probably would have in most situations). I thought Fury won fairly clearly when it came to rounds, it's just that he had to go to war in the trenches to win them.

        I'm not sure how Fury and Usyk goes if they ever meet. I think Usyk is superior in many things but he's also much smaller. Will we see Usyk as he fought AJ or will we see the guy who fought Chisora?

          Been keen to see more of Wallin after his tough fight with Fury and the Breazeale win I'd a great scalp but that's a long time between drinks he needs to be more active. Tough times I guess would like to see him get a big opportunity again.

            Wallin beat Brezeale relatively easily.

              Yeah Otto won that fight pretty easily, you could maybe give Brezeale like 3 rounds at most.

                He beat Breazeale easily and that is bigger win than anything a boogeyman Hrgovic has done so far.
