    Seems everyone at Boxing Scene had Usyk winning. I am glad to hear it. With Fury throwing temper tantrums and there being quite the Flat Earth Society screaming "robbery", I just was very worried these writers would add gas to the people rubbing twigs together trying to get something lit.

    I am ready for what is next. Get Fury and Usyk to sign for other fights quickly. I need new subjects for these two other than each other.

      After Joseph Parker schools Dubois and faces Usyk, then we'll see who the best of this era is.

      3 things we know are, it ain't Fury, Wilder, or Joshua.

      It'll either be Usyk or Parker!

        I really like Usyk, and what he's done against Fury, Dubois and AJ is very impressive.

        I'd have to say though, if I think of what a prime Lewis, Bowe, Holyfield and M.Tyson would've done against him, Usyk would not beat any of them.

          Hardly any of these fought a southpaw and Holyfields record vs them is awful 1-4.

            Parker has the hand speed and jaw to take it on points. And since Dubois has been dropped multiple times before a Parker KO is not a shocker either.

            Parker will need to box Dubois and not get into a fight. Joyce beat Dubois with one hand. Usyk made him quit and cry by landing peppering shots to the face from all angles. Parker has the tools to make it look easy like with Bum Squad but he’ll need to be disciplined.

                I thought about those comparisons but my honest answer to those matches is - I don't know. I remember when Usyk announced he would to up to heavyweight, I did not expect him to do what he did, which is beat AJ and Fury twice. I don't know how many people would have expected him to establish himself as the best heavyweight of this generation a few years ago. I certainly didn't.
