Comments Thread For: Hearn: Usyk Could Face Takam, Winner or Loser of Whyte-Chisora

He might not need to evade it for 12 rounds. I think he would have a great shot at stopping Wilder in the second half of the fight, by getting past the long punches and overwhelming him. Wilder looked exhausted in the last 4 rounds against Fury, and Usyk has stamina to burn.

I like uysk personally but I just don't rate him at HW.
Especially against the top 5/6.

We'll have to wait till he tries it to find out if I'm right, but I think he has the tools to give anybody in the division a real fight.

I've been saying Takam since the Bellew fight, after that I expect it to be Parker and then Joshua. I could see Del Boy if he loses, but Hearn doesn't want to sacrifice his British Hws or Big Baby to Usyk

Keep recycling Takam and Price Chisora Whyte etc

I swear every event they put on over there is the same dudes fighting each other

[Pigeons]

Best to start slow. Takam coming off the Chisora loss or Chisora coming off what will surely be a Whyte loss is perfect for Usyk to get his feet wet at HW.

I think he’ll hold up well. His skill level is above anyone at heavy (bar maybe Fury) and his stamina is top class.

He’s been in with plenty of big guys at amateur and in the WSB, including Joyce (who he battered).

Usyk could probably beat most heavyweights. Not sure about the top 4 AJ Wilder Fury Ortiz but i feel he'll give them good fights too

So what is your problem over there?

It will be very unfortunate if the so called Derreck war Chisora KO uysk on his HW debut.
That's almost a disaster for him and his promoter.

Takam is game. It's best Usyk gets acclimated to the division before challenging belt holders anyway.
