Comments Thread For: Krzysztof Glowacki-Oleksandr Usyk Ordered By The WBO

that haircut..lol

About time. Glowacki gets sold short with his skill, but the one thing he lacks is activity level. Usyk will chess match him, stay ahead punch for punch, and it'll be fun to watch for the time bombs.


Been hit "flush" in the Ams and Pros, and answers it with something special. Good chin, perhaps not the best, but his resolve more than makes up for it.

Being hit flush in the am's is clearly not the same. And he has faced no one comparable to glowacki in terms of power.
You never know how a fighter will react to being attacked by a heavy hitter for the first time... regardless of how skilled they are...

Cruiserweight could be even better than heavyweight if the right fights get made...

My ideal scenario for Usyk would be:
Glowacki
Makubu (after he KO's bellew)
Drozd
Lebedev
Then face one of the prospects of the division (Breidis/ Gassiev /Tapia/ Tabiti)

After he has unified the division > move up to heavyweight in 2 years time.

Massively looking forward to this one. Usyk's boxing skills and movement are first rate but Glowacki is very dangerous.

I've never understood all the enthusiasm about Usyk, but i hope i'm proven an idiot.

Even the alphabet groups don't like the lower weights + Rigo lol.

Was definitely bs how that went down for Rigo.

Fun fight with Glow vs Usyk. I think Usyk might be one of these next level type guys & while Glow seems like he's tough maybe he gets hit more than he should which will be a problem here. Can't imagine this won't be a fun fight whatever happens so looking forward to this.

Glowacki has been hit by a real one, yet didn't fold. Can't say the same for Usyk (admittedly, I've never seen the guy in a fight; looking through BoxRec, the resume leaves a lot to be desired).

[Dr Rumack]

absolutely. I think Usyk will definitely respect his power, they are equal on power, the problem is their skill level as no where near close.
Usyk will just pick him apart and then stop him whenever he feels like it.

Has Usyk been hit flush yet? You never know he could have a dodgy chin and get KTFO against Glowacki..

I see it similarly. Don't think Głowacki can outpoint Usyk. He needs knockdowns and maybe even a knockout.

For a guy with 9 fights his resume is amazing. I mean Boxrec gots him in the top ten. Top ten within 10 fights isn't something you'll see on boxrec outside of the lil guy divisions very often. I'd encourage you to go watch some of his fights. Talented guy. Has a couple amateur W's over maybe my one fanboy obsession Beterbiev. Could be too early vs Glow, but I suspect it'll be a competitive fight.

Being hit flush by Beterbiev in the Ams is a harder impact than you'll receive by a great majority of Pro fighters. Most "Pros" lack power punching technique.

Yeah, that would be a great plan, but as seen in the past, CWs never take on all challengers at CW before moving up for that bigger HW payday. Also, let's hope that Usyk becomes more active after this WBO title opportunity, if he indeed does win.

Loma set the bar so high that boxrec casuals aren't impressed unless you face a title holder within your first two fights.

Sounds like you are a big boxing fan.
