Will be funny if Takam stops him, Bellew had him in trouble on occasions.

Couldn’t he have fought a better heavyweight? What will beating takam prove?

Good decision. Very few would have watched the Usyk fight if it stayed on the 18th date.

Takam is a very solid opponent. If Usyk beats him it will prove that he is ready for the top guys at HW.

RIP Usyk. I wish it is in UK so I could watch it with friends on TV.

It's a good fight to usher uysk into the division but it will be funny if takam stops him.

Right, do people want him to go straight to Wilder/Joshua/Fury or something? This fight is perfectly fine for his debut. Next fight he can step it up a bit more and then be ready for Joshua or whoever he chooses to fight.

I was thinking the same thing! Big jump from Takam to Joshua! I thought Hrgovic would've been better!

Takam is a good heavyweight in the last chance saloon

Decent first fight.

Better than say David Haye fighting Monte Barrett
