    Brilliant boxer and true patriot , p4p top 3, has decent chance vs Joshua , he is no Parker, he can get close enough
    being like HW loma to make Joshua chase fight and tire imo Usyk 116-112 if he doesn't get knocked out by AJ

    I wanna see his Ukraine dance when he wina

      It just sucks he's in that no man's land in between light heavy and heavy, because I don't think he can hang with the heavyweights. Idk how he would take those punches, but if he does what Holyfield did and win titles at Heavyweight, I will be very impressed and he will go down as one of the best ever to lace them up.
      That jab jab pivot they do is identical, also the removing the hand from the high guard. Loma dad was his trainer giving the instruction in the corner as well as being the coach for the ukrainian olympic team so you could see why they have similar styles. But Loma fights more, Usyk boxes off the back foot more.

        I gotta agree with you . Although he is Super talented . His pitty pats and moves a little too much for my liking.

          Loma is sharper with his style overall. Quicker and more nimble. I think a lot of that has to do with Loma being at a lighter weight. Regardless, Usyk has a high motor and good skills.

            Let’s just say that im alot more impressed by Lomachenko.

            Usyk is somewhat boring to me. I dont see the appeal. Sure he is good obviously but the way people talk about him on this forum, one might think that he is a once in a lifetime fighter ..

                  Yeah, I think he'll have to step up his inside game there, too, man.

                  And it's harder to hurt the big boys.

                  I kind of wish he'd just chill at cruiser for a year anyway. Rematch with Bredis would be interesting...

                    He's nice as hell. I don't see any argument for GGG being over him p4p.
