    So Usyk KOs a guy and it's still a problem?

    I've seen all of his fights and this is by far has been the worst one to watch, but common man...everyone gets an akward opponent that is hard to look good against.

    Yes he was countering him and catching Usyk, but Usyk was trying to look good in his debut so he tried to engage a very akward sturdy opponent and was getting caught...

    He could have elected to stand tall and jab all night and win the fight that way but the crowd would have booed even more.

      Usyk is a good fighter no doubt, but damn is he very boring. I nearly fell asleep just watching it.

      He needs to be more aggressive in the future otherwise he'll become largely forgettable.

        I saw Usyk fight Glowchki and I was very impressed, I knew Glowchki was a hard puncher so he couldn't trade, but this guy he was fighting doesn't pack a punch so I thought he would just walk through him cause it's his American debut

        And no I haven't seen the other guy fight before

          Than you're not in a position to judge. That was a very tough and dangerous opponent. Glowacki was simple.

            I knew Mchunu was going to pose a lot of problems for Usyk. Thabiso is just too small though. Usyk looked like he outweighed him by 20 lbs. Good, tactical fight though.

                  Is that why even Roy Jones jr mentioned the shorter man was out-jabbing the taller Usyk that is leading the cruiserweight division with 50 jabs a round? nah bruh he had to make adjustments because he was getting outboxed and credit to him but hes got holes in his game.



                  Look how sloppy he is, lack of accuracy and balance. Good thing he fights at these weights because this is considered good for these big men....yeah he might keep winning but anybody that understands the mechanics of the sweetscience knows this guy is a KO waiting to happen.

                      watching that fight and the Usyk fight it seems better if he would move down to light heavyweight, he seems too small to be a cruiserweight
