That should be a good plan

usyk, another white hype that hbo is trying to shove down our throats before ward schools him on his way to becoming heavyweight champ

Smart move. I think much of GGG's fanbase will like watching him fight. He's a good boxer who should make for good semi main events on GGG cards.

Would love to see an Usyk unification paired with the Ward/Kov rematch if its in Newark, NJ or NYC.

My greatest achievement in life is hating on other people's achievements.



Sedate thyself.




Equating everything with race mirrors one's thoughts.

More than one way to be great, every real fan of the sport should know that. If not, they are nothing but fanboys, flag wavers and haters. Casuals at best.

One hype job ducked Ward by starving himself to fight at 160, now another is trying to duck him by bloating up to 200lbs and pretending to be a cruiserweight, but it won't work. From 168 to HW, no East Euro brawler bum is safe from the SOG and 3 US judges!

I'm sure Ward has already put him in his plans as he moves up. Bellew would also be a good option for him to gain another easy title. Bellew is just a terrible boxer and would get destroyed by Ward after he's been brutally Ko'd by Haye.

I think once he wins those title and that takes on one of the up coming crappy heavyweight title holders, he will definitely be the number 1 fighter in the world. I imagine he'll avoid Wilder and Joshua to begin with if he decides to stay at heavyweight, but to be honest if I was him I'd move back down to weight more comfortable. He may struggle with speed when he puts on all that extra muscle to get to Heavyweight .
