    Usyk is Pedestalised to an above average level for sure.

    He's a very impressive boxer but I'm not as high on him as others are, mainly because of his "condensed" career, he's fought in my opinion 3 elite level fighters, Bredis, AJ and Fury.

    Gassiev, Bellew, Dubois are not elite fighters by my reckoning.

    People act like he's had a career like Ali or Holyfield, you know 10-15 years at the elite level with over a dozen elite opponents of every conceivable style, that's just not the case.

    I do appreciate the skill level, there's no doubting his talent, but I'm not a fan of this new school 25 fights, 10 of them at championship level, in and out approach, I can't rate guys like that alongside the legends of the past who did it for 50 fights and 15 years


    Those legends first 25 fights were against tomato cans before they started putting in work. Nothing wrong with going straight to top level if you have the skills.

      He is clearly coping. He lost fair and square.

        Usyk won at minimum 5 rounds

        and scored a 10-8 round in the process

        in other words best case scenario for Fury was he fought to a draw if the fight was scored generously in his favor
