Usyk vs Karneyeu - Any footage?

[dan_cov]

Anyone have or seen footage of Usyk vs Sergey Karneyeu?

Karneyeu stopped him in the amateurs first round in a Nicolai Manger memorial tournament in Ukraine, 2011.

Any footage of this?

I bet Bellew has a copy he watches every night.

I didn't realise Usyk had as many losses in the amateurs as he does not taking anything away from him, just saying.

Most were bs decisions & walkovers tbf and a fair few down at 75kg when he was a kid.

He was stopped by Korobov and lost to Shawn Porter.
Granted they were just kids still pretty funny too think Porter once beat Usyk.

He fought a ton of guys that went pro; Danny Price, Korobov, Porter, Robert Woge, Artur Beterbiev, Dmitry Chudinov, Egor Mekhontsev, Stephen Simmons, Ronald Gavril, Badou Jack

Something that happened 7 years ago in the amateurs is not going to help bellew

Don't know about that but Usyk's chin has never been fully tested in the pros IMO, at least not by a HW with power. I think Dorticos would have been a good fight for him as he hits harder than Gassiev.

Could well help he still has amateurish tendencies.
All these pro's with extensive amateur pedigrees do, those tendencies are practically engrained into their muscle memory for life.

I have little doubt about Usyks chin Gassiev hit him with a shot that would of knocked down a house. Briedis hit him plenty and he was never in any real trouble. Briedis one punch K.Od Charr at HW for all Charr's faults he's very durable.
Hunter has good pop as does Glowacki.

I feel his chins proven.

Only time I recall him going down was a bodyshot in the amateurs vs Beterbiev.

2011. if he had a bad chin or flaws we'd have seen them by now. remember how quickly we saw sillakh get folded in half like a lawn chair?

hard to put a ton into losses in the amateurs at the international level, or when you're a kid. at the international level you might be up against a grown man with 2-3x as many fights. and when you're a kid, you're a kid. i wouldn't look into him losing allt hat mcuh. nobody asks your amateur record, they ask how many fights you had and if you won any major tournaments or qualified for the olympics.

usyk is the real deal and his limiations will be size and power at HW. chins get checked in the division, it'll happen to anybody when a guy is 6'5" and weights 240 lbs when he's in shape.
