    Usyk destroys any HW

    His speed and jab is too much he fights like a jr lightweight and he can take the hardest of shots like he did in round 4 from gassiev straight on the chin and in the briedis fight he weathered the storm like nothing. He can easily toy with Joshua and wilder he’s that good.

    Chill lol, Gassiev looked extremely basic in there, 0 jab, he fights exactly like Abraham but Abraham actually has a jab.

    Usyk is best suited at cruiser, the guys at HW are way too big.

    Wilder showed more skill than Gassiev ever has.

      I sort of agree although I would still take Joshua and Parker over Usyk as they would fought a few southpaws in the amateurs. His style would be awful for Wilder. Better boxer than Ortiz with more speed and endurance. Don't think many heavyweights will be queuing up to face him anyhow.

          I'm pretty confident that Wilder and Joshua are too big, too strong and have too long reach for Usyk; equally i'm confident that Usyk doesn't have the power to hurt Wilder or Joshua either.

          Usyk is comfortably the best cruiserweight but HW is a totally different ball game. Let's see how he does against any heavyweight at all before proclaiming him king of 2 divisions.

            Why is it a different ball game? He’s only a few pounds less than wilder and once you over 200 it’s doesnt matter either way, he’s way too quick and skilled for them he might not be able to hurt them but they won’t touch him either.

              I don't buy it, mostly because today's fight was a poor example of what he would face at HW. Usyk dominated the fight using his activity and reach. Gassiev has no jab to speak of. Imagine Usyk facing someone who's 6'7" and active like Wilder? Or another tall guy with solid fundamentals and a great jab like Joshua?

              I think even Povetkin would be a serious challenge to Usyk. In short, I would not be surprised if Gassiev turns out to be a better HW than Usyk.

                I think hes too small for HW, just dont see him having enough power. He will end up getting caught at one point by a big puncher.

                    Too small? He’s 6’3 mike Tyson was 5’10, he’s not small at all and gassiev is a monster puncher and he took his best shot right on the chin in the end of the 4th and continued his domination he can take the power.
