    True but Haye had devastating power, Wlad had to respect that, Usyk does not have that.
    On the other hand, Usyk probably has 10 good toes.

      I think Usyk would win a decision. His movement and general skill would cause Wlad fits.

        Where did you pull that from? Show me one instance were Usyk displayed a weak chin.

          Wlad was just as skilled as Usyk is. Wlad has every other advantage. He would win by KO.

          Usyk doesn't even have the power to test Wlad's chin properly.

          Usyk is one of my favourite active fighters. He would have lost to Wlad. At Wlad's best there are very few fighters who would beat him.

            Wlad has always looked poor against boxers with decent movement. Fury, Thompson, Jennings, Ibragimov all caused him big problems.

            Usyk doesn't need the power to test Wlad's chin, he can simply outbox him, just like Fury did.

            My only concern is that i'm not sure how physically strong Usyk is. If he let Wlad grab and lean on him, it would probably be a different result.

                He was feeling briedes punches I saw it in his legs, gassiev will put him down I'm absolutely sure of it. And wlad would knock him out of the ring

                  Yeah, although it was WSB boxing, probably a 5 rounder without headgear.

                  I just brought up this fight to show that Usyk can fight big guys.

                    If i was forced to pick I would go with Wlad but isnt Usyk 6'3 or 6'4? Thats too small? Corey Sanders was around 6'3 and bounced Wlad off the canvas. If he could come in at 225-230 that should be big enough to alteast hold his own physically I would think.

                      He'd likely be outjabbed, clinched and beaten on a points decision.
