Comments Thread For: Loeffler Sees Superstar Potential in Oleksandr Usyk

I hope Usyk does not attract the same cringey fan base GGG has with him being Eastern European and from the former soviet bloc, I'm a huge fan but do not want to be looked on like GGG's nut hugging fan base is.

Usyk will soon move to heavyweights and I'm absolutely certain he will clear the place out when he eventually makes the transition in the next couple of years, Ortiz, Parker and Wilder will have their hands full when he makes his move towards heavyweight domination.

Jubei had Usyk in his avi.. & Jubei is a GGG fan..

& Usyk moves to HW, let's bet on the fact that he cannot beat the top 5 guys(Wlad, Fury, AJ, Wilder, Ortiz)

He is fighting in the most underrated & ignored division atm.. He has to do better than just be on HBO to become a super star..

Can't speak English, and doesn't have a big following. Plus he's almost 30.

He'll be a very good fighter, but not a super star.

Jubei is ***** fellow, I want no affiliation with him.

I think Fluff would out point Usyk but he hasn't the motivation to compete at this level so if they were to fight I'd be shocked, I never took Fluff into account in the future of the division. I think that guy is done.

AJ and Wilder I'll see that bet anytime, he's infinitely more skilled than either of those guys. Ortiz by the time the fight potentially comes about in a couple if years will be how old ? Ortiz is not the future of the divison and I very much doubt Usyk would move up whilst Ortiz is on a rip, can that guy take a punch ? Usyk is a puncher.

I'd like to see Usyk versus a durable puncher heavyweight before make wild assumptions regarding Usyk's power at heavy just yet but he's shown to be a heavy hitter at 200 thus far.

He might have a good chance to be in top 5 but won't beat the tall rangy guys like Wilder & AJ & these guys are huge punchers too.. It is highly doubtful he can take their punches..

Not to belittle Usyk, He has grown on me & more so after the Glowacki fight.. Chin Tested, Good Amateur background, Good skills & power

Wilder and Joshua are overrated and I'm not sure who they've fought who could be considered to have given them the tag they have displayed their supposed super powers on the highest level, of course they are heavy handed but when they really face top opposition who can punch as hard will they be as willing to throw as they have been doing versus guys like Liakhovich and Martin, who has Wilder really hurt who could be considered top level, he had Stiverne hurt but was unable to finish him guys have managed to stop Stiverne before and aren't considered to be monstrous punchers, of course anyone can hurt anyone at heavy but when you're facing actual genuine challenges their is a reluctance to open up yourself and the power you apparently have having showcased it versus chinny opposition becomes less telling.

Joshua won't go undefeated through his career, his vulnerabilities have been telegraphed already as Wilder's have I actually feel Wilder may retire undefeated though due to not stepping up his opposition. Joshua at some stage I just feel the Brits will demand he actually face an opponent who can actually fight and then at that point he will lose.
