    Completely agree with this.

    Think Fury is possibly the worst opponent for Usyk in terms of styles. Would back him to make Joshua and Wilder look silly for a few rounds before they potentially catch up with him - but no guarantee with that, and I think Usyk has a great chin too.

      He has the same reach as Whyte too - 78 inches - and a longer reach than Chisora.

      But Dillian would outweigh him by more than 10lbs. He was 259 for his last fight. I don't think that will matter too much though. As I said in my previous post, Usyk won't even be trying to bully big guys like Whyte around the ring.

        Usyk vs Fury would be a chess match, a battle of wits, skills, and psychology.

        If they ever get it on, the pre-fight fun and games will be hilarious too!

          Not Takam! Miller, Ortiz, Povetkin, or Jennings, would be much better!

            Hearn isn’t making any REAL fights at all!

                I wonder how you come about this predictions.

                I will declare uysk the winner of he last 10rounds against either AJ or wilder.

                The dude is good but I doubt he can't take those powers.

                  Usyk would beat Wilder easily, imo. He wouldn't have to worry about anything except the big right hand, which comes from way back and would be picked up and evaded easily by a guy as quick as Usyk.

                  AJ can hit hard with either hand, and throws vicious hooks and uppercuts at mid range. Usyk would have a lot more to think about with him, and the more you have to think about, the more likely you are to make a mistake.

                    all you have said are facts but I still doubt uysk can avoid that right hand for 12 rounds.

                      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.
