    Usyk: simply a euro bum who would be average in any other era.

    This man would have been FOOD in the 90s.

    Seriously he does nothing great.

    He's just a basic euro with some decent textbook boxing

    No real power, quick but not lightning fast, there's literally nothing special about this guy

    The standards for greatness are so low now, all you have to do is beat some scared Michael Grant rip off on points and you are considered HOF ATG

    Remember when Holyfield had wins over prime Rid**** Bowe and Mike Tyson and was STILL fighting to get respect?

    What a joke the division is today.

    Disagree. Usyk has an elite jab, footwork, fast hands, fights well at all ranges, and underrated defense, and he is arguably the greatest CW in history. You put him in the 90s, the only guys I would favor over him would be Lennox and Holyfield and those are both 50/50 fights.

        The 90's didn't steroid test just ask Evan Fields. Can you imagine a juiced up Usyk? He already has the skills now imagine him with the power.

            Didn't he struggle to a close decision win over a past prime Chisora? lol!

            Recency bias is amazing.

                Recency bias?

                You just referenced one of his recent fights

                Also he didn't struggle in that fight. Where did that narrative come from?

                As for OP's thoughts, just say you don't know or followed the CW division back when Usyk beat them all in their own backyards...LOL
