Who Does Usyk beat at Heavyweight?

[D4thincarnation]

He’s gotta get use to it.... that’s the reason I see him not beating miller and wilder is size alone.

Too soon to judge at the moment.

Got to see him with the other guys first.


Joshua vs Wilder should have happened by then.

Parker would be a good introduction to the weight

['b']

He should fare pretty well against rank 10-20, and be 50/50 against 5-10. Rank 1-5 is asking for trouble though.

Does anyone see Usyk beating Hughie Fury? Because I don't.

Fan of Usyk and not so much of Hughie, but some HWs will make him look silly because they will nullify him. Hughie is faster than Bellew and a bigger man to boot.

One thing is for sure is that he is going to need more punching power if he going to compete a heavyweight. He'll be fighting guys close to 250 pounds.

So therefore, he won't be able to fight off the back foot for twelve rounds in a row without so much as hurting them and earning their respect. If he fights AJ he is really going to have to release his hands more and fight because there's no way he is defeating Anthony Joshua on the scorecards.

Hell he was even behind on at least two of the three judges scorecards against Bellew; Who really didn't do all that much outside of not getting hit because he was fighting off the back foot in order to counter punch and land the occasional right hand.

Yeah, whether he can overcome that weight and height disadvantage will be key as he has the skills advantage over the lot.

Being 6'3" and quite stocky he has the physique to go up to the mid 220s,and still be in peak condition.
That is heavier than Wilder.

That makes his wins the more so impressive, he knows he is starting 3-4 rounds down on the scorecards going to his opponents backyard to fight them.

But he goes there and wins.

I can see him beating Parker and someone like Hughie Fury. I can’t see him beating the top guys.

That I can agree.
