    Usyk wins, 11th round KO, via a steel chair to the back of the head as the referee's head is turned by the Man in the Hat (from Khan vs Peterson) tampering with the scorecards under instructions via an earpiece from TBE Mayweather. Does nobody else see this fight going this way? Nash out - His Majesty

      You don't have to go far back, the last one, the Klitschko era.

          Usyk can't hurt "Tubby Lar", as my mans calls him

          Dude took bombs from Earnie Shavers & Ken Norton Sr. & walked through them.

          Usyk would be game, but he'd lose a sound UD to "Tubby Lar"

            Holmes is just a better heavyweight than Usyk.
            No disrespect intended.
            It is not the worst.

              BIG BUFF UKRAINIAN Usyk went down while Small Bivol didn't even slow down from that right-left hook COMBO donwstairs from Tiger Paw Artur in fight 2
              It was nearly two decades ago and he was a teenager.

              Have you ever boxed? Even just like a spar at a local gym or something? If someone catches you in the right spot, it doesn’t matter how tough you are.

              AJ caught Usyk several times to the body and he ate them. Going off an amateur fight from 2007 is a major reach.

                I’ve seen others take worse body shots yet remain standing

                Opposite side from the liver not far back enough for kidney

                0:10 right hook downstairs

                  Good fight, probably Holmes.

                    It'd be good fights, not sure who wins.

                    The klitschkos were excellent champions but their competition was absoloutley dreadful

                      Is it really relevant 18 years later?

                      Do you think Shawn Porter would still beat Usyk too? Same timeframe…

                      It’s a major reach.
