    15/20 lbs is not a lot for a 200 lb + guy with Usyk's body build. I read that his team already have a diet and excercise plan worked out for him, and are going to build him up gradually.

    I don't think the plan is for him to jump straight up to 230, or whatever, and in with AJ for his fight at HW.

    Don't underestimate how hard some CWs can wack. They are only slightly smaller than Wilder, after all. Huck was able to hurt and stagger Povetkin at HW. Usyk charged through his punches like they were nothing.

    Breidis layed Manuel Char out cold with one clean uppercut. He landed the same punch on Usyk multiple times, without any effect.

    AJ has the size and power to KO Usyk if he lands anything clean, no doubt about that. But AJ can KO anybody in the HW division if he lands clean, so Usyk moving up from CW isn't really a factor there.

      Usyk would make him look silly.

        Usyk's most challenging fight in the heavies will be vs Tyson Fury, whether he wins or loses to the "bronze bomber". It will be a clash of awkward styles and Fury has a great advantage in size.

          We need to get off the back of fighters like AJ who step up or we'll get the Wilders of the world at the top ducking everyone.
          Wilders path to the top doesn't matter. Once there he offered your man AJ $50 million (as requested) to get it on. That ain't ducking!!!

            Wilder offered AJ $50 million to fight. None of those other guys did. Why was AJ so willing to fight them, but so unwilling to fight Wilder. And don't go into Hearns always changing disrespectful offers (for the biggest HW fight that can be made).

            Oh yeah, I remember AJ (who I actually like and thinks has at least a 50/50 of being able to win against Wilder) told all of you Brits to go train and fight Wilder yourself! Ha-ha!

                You have made valid points to be honest but I would love to see uysk tested. That's why I think bellew fight is a good test though it's on CW but still a good test on how he can react to power shots.

                  The votrons are here, defenders of the universe.

                  If wilders path to top doesn't matter, same is applied to AJ. He can choose to fight any challenger on his belts whenever and wherever he want.

                  He can decide to duck if he wants, he is the unified champ. The last time I checked, I can't remember a ducking warrior in possession of 4 belts. It's not like you go stores to by them.

                  Keep riding that dcck if it makes you feel better.

                    Hahahahaha..... Pls don't crack me up. Trying with who?
                    IBO/WBA was vacant, wilder went hiding immediately he saw WK.

                    Martin had IBF in the US, much more closer to wilder than AJ. He couldn't bring out 5mil from his 50mil to unify the belts, in he was chasing some weak souls in the name of voluntary defences.

                    Parker had WBO and was willing to fight any champ to unify but wilder was chasing unfit fat brothers to bully.

                    All these while he was parabulating searching for weak souls, the ducker was gradually and patiently defeating fighters wilder couldn't man enough to challenge collecting their belts in the process

                    This same ducker did all these in almost half the fight the guy you are riding his dycck.

                    Keep sucking his dyyck.

Of course you can say now that Klit/Takam/Pov are all more shopworn but it's still a one of the most respectable, if not best of the winning Heavyweight resumes.
                      Too small, or too old , or both. Theres a reason hearn cherry picked these guys for AJ and dodged others.
