Can Oleksandr Usyk grow into a heavyweight contender?

[Tony Trick-Pony]

He got a very close split d win in his last fight so that isn't exactly cleaning out cruiserweight. I think he loses to the best 3 or 4 heavyweights.

It was against the number two guy though, in Breidis and that man is nobody to mess with. When the number one takes on the number two, it usually is close. I wasn't expecting Usyk to run over Breidis. In fact, I don't think anyone on here expected that. So for it to be close is no knock on Usyk.

What Usyk looks like at heavyweight is another question though. We'll just have to wait and see.
