Comments Thread For: Khan on Usyk: He's in Great Shape, He's A lot Bigger, A lot Thicker - Still Very Quick

[archiemoore1]

Amir when you talk about how another man is so much bigger and thicker, it becomes clear why ur wife laid down with the heavyweight champ. She wanted her tail bone broken and her lips turned inside out til they looked like hot pastrami

I don't buy into this stuff too much. It's just like AJ saying they were focusing more on speed for this fight, and saying they were going to be more aggressive.

The bottom line is this; The whole fight will be dictated by one thing, and one thing only; And that is how well AJ reacts to getting hit flush by Usyk. The first time around, he got froze, and was VERY hesitant to walk right in.

If Usyk has put on more weight, and done so correctly; AJ is either going to be running for dear life, or is going to have to engage in straight up fire fight.

At this point, I'd say standing in the pocket and trading is his best bet. It cost him against Ruiz, and his chin is *highly* suspect. However, he does have huge punching power, and if he hits Usyk flush, he can knock him out with one shot.

He's basically going to have to gamble that Usyk gets sloppy, and he lands a homerun shot. Which is highly unlikely.

I'd favor Usyk about 80/20 over AJ this time around. AJ has a chance, but only a puncher chance.

May the best man win.

LOL a home run punch from a good combination puncher vs a guy who relays on pitty pat angle you to death turning into a pocket power. can't make this eastern european stuff up. aj got hit by a template shot from ruiz, not on his chin. vlad was more of a high cheekbone, just miss the chin shot.

Why are they hiding the photos of heavy Usyk? 33 pounds is an absurd handicap, he was at a career high last time. Could he be tanking this fight like Ruiz obviously did? And blame it on the war distraction?

He's alot thicker

Thats probably what his wife said about AJ.

[Gideon lock]

I've seen Khan saying 15kg, 33 lbs, and that's apparently what Usyk told him. Really, since what point in time?

He lost a stone, 6kg in his first week in the war efforts.

Something doesn't add up.

That froch quote is missing "I would have been seen by 80,000 fans at wembley"

[BritJimbo]

If he comes into the fight substantially bigger, like North or 230, I think that’s a mistake.

33 pounds is a surprising amount of weight to gain....TBH there isnt a huge difference in height between the two...I never really thought Usyk was overmatched physically against AJ, he is about 6 ft 3. so he can carry 220 easily enough. I wonder how he will move though, if the 33 lbs is true.

Cant wait for this one.

Who is going to win this rematch, you have said nothing.

Tell me with conviction who will win this rematch.

I am telling you that Anthony Joshua, is going to win this rematch.

Usyk. If you couldn’t deduce that from my statement then I can’t help you.

AJ got hit by a "template" shot u say? LOL. Thanks for the response. I love the dyslexia on this forum. Just coming on the forum seems to make someone dyslexic. After all, my username was *supposed* to be "NoCondoms"............OOOPS! :P

Usyk. If you couldn’t deduce that from my statement then I can’t help you.

I wanted to see you state it.

I wanted to see you state it.

Fair enough. I’ll swing by post fight. Look forward to watching.
