    I didn't say close to being as fast. I said faster, which he is.

    Haye had explosive one punch speed. Usyk reliably punches in lightning combinations in a way that Haye could only have dreamt of, and has much faster effective footwork.

    Haye definitely had explosive speed. But he is a slowpoke next to Usyk who has continuous speed, keeping up a pace Haye simply couldn't do.

      Im just gonna say this. I dont think that any man on the planet can take Wilder's power. But yeah I see Usyk having a easy time at HW, not named joshua or wilder

          If he puts on 20-30 pounds he'll lose whatever advantages he might have. If he tries to slug it out with any of these monsters he'll look a lot like Byrd did against Wlad. Speed, stamina and angles are how he will succeed, if he succeeds.

            I'd be curious to see what his weight was pre fight. I'd be guessing around 215?

              Maybe, my guess would be under 210. Weighing in under 199 makes me think that he's not pushing the class limit.

                I can't think of any HW who has thrown over 900 punches in a round
                he must have been exhausted after round 1

                  I'm not seeing it.
                  He has a great jab and really good footwork, but riding his jock thru the heavyweights just ain't gonna happen. A fighter does something good and all of a sudden he's invulnerable and is about to clean out the heavyweight division? ........ yea I don't think so.

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

                    Wilder showed more skill than Gassiev ever has.
                    You absolutely dont know **** about boxing if you think that Wilder has better skills and fundamentals than Gassiev lmao...what the hell are you even thinking. Gassiev has never been outboxed before Usyk, Wilder was getting outboxed by the likes of Szpilka

                      Very true. It's what Floyd calls "special effects".

                      Usyk should season into the heavyweight division. Fight some money fights against smallish heavies, starting with Bellew. Maybe Haye? Parker. Add weight smartly and build strength.

                      One thing is clear: Nothing left at cruiser.
