Usyk came up to heavyweight as a small heavy and fought in his opponent's back yard every time, fighting any and every dangerous contender that he could get his hands on. Clearing out 2 weight divisions and becoming undisputed each time.
Floyd in the fights you mentioned there: i) Oscar was old as hell ii) Marquez he dragged up multiple weight divisions iii) Mosley at the very tail end of his career vi) Canelo was intentionally drained as **** and green also v) Manny fight he was taking IV drips so cut tonnes of weight against a guy that started his career at minimum weight lol (he never wanted to fight Pac and basically claimed the Marquez 4 KO as his own, thinking that it was the end of the rivalry)
Floyd never unified, swerved many prime contenders that could have given fans the fights they wanted. Usyk showed real greatness. People's ChampComment

The devil is in the detail though.

Floyd was past prime for 4 out of 5 of them when he ran through 5 all time greats easily
Usyk has close ones when facing the best
Floyd was peerless
different level of boxer
Usyk might be top 50 atg
Floyd is in the 11th slot knocking on the door of top 10 just behind Sugar Leonard who’s #10Comment

People must have forgot how good this uckin Mayweather was
it was considered an accomplishment to take more than 2 clear rounds off of him
Floyd was expected to instantly rematch any opponent who won at least 4 rounds
Everyone knew Floyd was the superior boxer and he was held to the highest standard in boxing history
any other fighter does 7-5 and he’s allowed to outright duck the rematch or it gets postponed for yearsComment

Most fans will say Floyd - the names on his resume are spectacular. The argument against Floyd will always be the asterisks - he always stacked the deck in his favor, catchweights, aging folks out, ring size, mind games, whatever it took - and he was the favorite in virtually all the fights.
Usyk is exact opposite. He's generally been the smaller man in the ring giving up all physical advantages, he never had home court, and can never be accused of ducking anyone.
Floyd has better resume... but I like Usyk's career a lot more. I think we'll grow to appreciate him more and more when he hangs them up.Comment
