easily beating 5 all time greats Oscar Juan Mosley Saul Manny >>> going life and death with Briedis Buff Guy Joshua Fury
The devil is in the detail though.
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 Champ

Usyk will end his career without having faced one all time great. His top wins being past primes
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 #10
