Comments Thread For: Usyk's 12-Month Plan To Ruling The Heavyweight Division

[SteveAnitaSmith]

USYK will destroy the slow Joyce at heavyweight.
Joyce is a knock out waiting to happen.

I 2nd this

Usyk is not playing games

"....we will move further along until he gets his chance to beat all of the heavyweight champions to unify the belts. But before that we have to launch his heavyweight career.”

Good decision making there...

Honestly, I get what they are saying. Kind of like: "Watch who we pick for our first opponent, and you will see how serious we are about fighting top matches immediately." I believe in Usyk, and this crop of HWs below say the top 5 are all beatable for him right now. He can easily establish himself in a position to claim a top spot. But until we see him in action, those top 5 are all favored. All of them are more established, bigger, and all can take punches. Usyk has put himself in a nice position to carve out a place for his legacy here. Can you imagine if he can unify the HW as well as the CW? It may not be a historically great era, but that would be a historically great accomplishment.

If he fights Ortiz, I’m interested. If he wins, I’m more interested.

He will beat Wilder

[Ake-Dawg]

I guess he has to wait until Hearn picks an opponent for Joshua. Then he will possibly fight on the undercard since Hearn has options on him after the Bellew fight.

Not going to happen especially in that time frame.

Especially if he looks impressive he might get ducked lol but I personally think he should stay at cruiserweight a little longer.

[AdonisCreed]

I hope Usyk and his handlers know what they are doing moving him up to HW SMH Oh well good luck champ give it 110% lol

[gbonafide]

Joseph Parker would be a good 2nd fight for him at HW after he tests himself against a lesser opponent. Sounds like he wants to jump right into the fire though.

Old Hearn at it again.
He won't have Usyk fight Joshua unless he beats Wilder first.
Second hand ducking....
Wilder gets outfoxed but catches Usyk mid rounds.
