Comments Thread For: Oleksandr Usyk Open To 'Freak Fight' Against Canelo Alvarez

[A.B Counterhooks]

Nah men,canelo giving up way too many physical advantages at 175 ,CW or HW just unreachable for the ginger even though he still a great fighter imho

[Madison Boxing]

seems a long time ago that canelo was going to 'light usyk up like a xmas tree' at cruiser

[Boro]

I don't want to see Usyk who's likely to weigh high 220s low 230s in the rematch drain himself and sell his booty to Canelo especially when he's getting paid extremely handsomely for the rematch with AJ (allegedly £50m = $60.7M)

P.S cutting roughly 30 pound and a rehydration clause is asking to get spanked regardless of your "skill"

Damn it's a sad day when the unified heavyweight champion considers a catch weight fight with the super middleweight unified champion because the money would be better.

[Ricospider]

He wiped the floors with aj just like bivol did with Clenelo. Keep sitting there hoping tho…

It looked more like AJ tanked the fight and threw one punch half hearted combinations, even intentionally worse than he did vs Ruiz, a rematch he won easily. Usyk is going to lose. AJ is the money maker and the "straw that stirs the drink" as the immodest Reggie Jackson once said about his impact on the New York Yankees.

Canelo must be doing more than eating Mexican beef, he must be smoking Mexican reef to think he even has a prayer at Usyk. Pipe dream. He obviously doesn't realize how easily Bivol beat him. It wasn't a close fight, and the rematch will be worse.

The money wouldn't be better though. Do you know how much he's earning in just these two fights with AJ? Then there's Fury out there amongst others.

It would just be easy money against Canelo because he's the biggest draw in North America.

I think the most disappointing thing for me was how Canelo (and Valdez) didn't show any adjustments during their respective fights, even when it should have been clear they were losing, or at the very least in a close fight (neither fight was close, but I can't fathom how Reynoso could have thought they were winning). Reynoso didn't have any kind of decent instructions either. It's sure a bad look when he wasn't able to come up with anything to alter the trajectory of the fight, especially when both looked very flat, and had been accused of doping in the past.

Canelo should have been able to at least make it a closer fight. I don't buy that it was all Bivol shutting him down because Canelo wasn't even using his jab, and he's got decent one and he had opportunities. It looked like they banked everything on hitting Bivol in the arms and having that slow him down, and had no answer when it didn't.

I do think he's got enough power to make it interesting against the 175# guys, and I can only imagine what it would be like if he does manage to knockout Bivol and/or Beterbiev. I don't think that happens, in either case, but no way does he take Usyk. I would probably still watch it, just like I would still watch Inoue v Lomachenko, but freak show is the right name for it.

Boxing Scene posting sad clickbait trash. Go watch the actual interview on Fight Hype from a while back. Usyk was taking the piss because the question was so ******, even Bivol ripped the Canelo fan girl reporters and started laughing before he fought him when asked about it.

Thankfully Bivol gave the media and people who have some weird god bias for Canelo and Mexican fan girls a hard reality check. He got battered by middleweight GGG twice who got robbed and schooled by Bivol in first gear.

Canelo is not god and would get beat/stopped by Benavidez if he ever had the nuts to fight him and sparked cold in a round by Beterbiev. Weight classes exist for a reason. Boxing "fans" definitely giving MMA fans a run for their money on being ******ed. Spastics.

"we will destroy Bivol, then Beterbiev and then Usyk, Easy work for "NELO" " LMAO , Bunch of F. gs
