Placing Oleksandr in the Same Tier of Greatness as Roy

[SouthpawRight]

Spray_resistant very great fighters but TBud is bufferdaggum

Fair to place him in the same neighborhood as Roy

Roy has Bernard, James, and Felix

Oleksandr has Fury, Anthony, and Mairis

both had success in multiple weights

Roy looked godly while Oleksandr always looks mortal

Oleksandr makes up for this with longevity. Roy has some bad losses

If you think about it Bud has just a few really good wins but got them in impressive fashion, Roy is rated so high based on fantasy fights mostly because of how gifted he was. Usyk is having a very consistent solid run dominating Cruiser then moving up as a small HW to become the one true champion of the division. totally different circumstances all 3.

TBud is the definition of how one super great win made him go to legendary from borderline footnote that only diehard boxings would remember

Going up 2 to 3 weights to 9-3 the real champ who was p4p was a BUFF VICTORY

if not for this win TBud would be among one of many great multiple division champs

this one win warranted the comparisons of TBud v MYTHICAL MAYWEATHER

True, and it was something special but other than that, Spence was viewed as a 50/50 and he easily took him apart so another great win. After that I think he was heavily favored to win every other major fight he was in.

I thought of Floyd when I typed that and yeah, he was almost never up against it and fought an even fight with Maidana who Devon Alexander shutout in a 10rder in the most dominant performance you can have without a stoppage or any KDs Floyd is very overrated and was carefully managed.

Roy has Bernard and James. Let's not count the Felix fight. That looked more like an exhibition fantasy fight. Both were over the hill when it happened.

Roy looked godly against any subpar competition. To me Oleksandr always puts in the work. He's not trying to be brodacious. He goes in, puts in the performance needed to get the W. Whether that's a dominant decision or a KO.

Roy on the other hand definitely wanted to perform to the audience and for the accolades. He was listening to the hype and that played into how he would fight.

Usyk has none of that. He simply doesn't care. He relies on his training, knows his body and what he's capable of and goes in to get the win.

Usyk did not abuse ROIDS, nor did he duck people.

As such Roy is in a class of his own.

And he did not get KO'd by one punch early in a match as Roy did.


Now Jones has special hand speed, but that is just one part of the equation.

If the two meet in the ring at their best, Usyk beats him.


Close examination of Roy's best wins reveal he was in his prime while the other guy was not ( AGE ) or significantly smaller.

I do think Roy was a better pound for pound ....Businessman.

Usyk did not duck people.

Straight from the horses mouth: Kabayel does not want a title shot going through the front door like everyone else. Why is it Usyk's problem that Kabayel is scared of the gypsy king ? How can you duck one that is scared of the one you are going to fight ?
