Comments Thread For: Usyk: Nobody Has Promised Me Joshua - But Fight Will Happen!

... if he wants some big money, Usyk has no choice but fighting the HW giants...

Yes he and his team want that money. I assume Usyk fights Chisora next on April 13th as the Co Main Event of Joshua at Wembley. Btw great HW debut against a well known name in the big Wembley arena.

Have you seen him fight since then? Bscause he just danced around Gassiev throwing 1000 punches over 12 rounds (with 120 in the 12th round)

So safe to say he isn’t getting gassed in 5 rounds.

Gassiev isn't joshua or wilder is he, gassiev is smaller than usyk.

Have you ever had any kind of physical altercation with a man who is a lot bigger than you? It's tiring, if he gets hold of you for more than a few seconds its draining.

I know the usyk fans want to belive he is this perfect fighter with no flaws or weaknesses but trust me when I say against the super heavyweights his skill gap isn't going to be enough to win him the fights.

Lomachenko is his best mate and he said he reccomends Usyk to stay away from the likes of Wilder and Joshua, his exact words, If it's me im not in a hurry to fight those guys, i wouldnt do it just now

and loma knows more about boxing than you

... I really hope Usyk makes some big money before he gets badly KOd by one of those giants...

... no rocket science here... but it's about the money, doe!...

I'd take the money if I was usyk, he's smart enough to avoid getting brutally ko'd but he will lose the fight fighting negativley.

His fans want to belive he walks on water and turns water into kool-aid but they are in for a rude awakening if those fights do take place.

... ... (I simply can't forget that Porter beat him in the amateurs)...

Povetkin is apparently on the April 13th card ... Usyk wouldn't / would he ?

[Adamsc151]

Amateur and Pro boxing are almost 2 completely different sports. Yes Usyk did well against big guys like Joyce in the 5 round amateur fights, but I'd need to see how he handles a big HW over 12 rounds before I'd be convinced that he could beat either of the champs. He's signed up to Matchroom and DAZN, so maybe Whyte/Miller before going for a belt - a real belt not the plastic one Miller's expected to pick up in his next fight.

Usyk is p4p #1 and if Joshua ever fights him, Usyk will put on a boxing clinic and humiliate AJ.

The only real question is, will Joshua agree to a fight he will lose against Usyk, without first cashing in with a fight against Wilder? If AJ loses to Usyk after turning down $50 million for Wilder...

Everybody wants AJ to loose. Everything tomboy that shows potentials will beat AJ according to wilder fans. Any tomboy that wants to cash out will be chasing AJ all around as if hez the only champion.

Even H. Fury was chasing AJ before his eliminator against pulev which he eventually lost.

Every fighter wants to cash out with AJ/hearn. It's a positive sign. It shows whose the kingpin in the division.

It'd definitely be a watchable fight; but Povetkin's slightly shorter than Usyk, so it wouldn't really show how he can handle someone who's at least 6'5 and 240lbs.
