Comments Thread For: Joshua Has No Problem With Facing Oleksandr Usyk Next

[angkag]

He is too small and struggled against Bellew, what makes people think he has a chance with Joshua?

Bellew put everything he had into the first 6 rounds, he was fighting at the pace of a 6 round fight, Usyk was fighting at a 12 round pace. No surprise Bellew looked good for those 6 rounds, but struggled ? That fight was only going to end one of two ways - the way it did, or complete domination by Usyk for the last 12 rounds.

If you want to see why someone might see Usyk having a chance vs Joshua, watch Povetkin vs Joshua first 3 rounds again, and imagine if Povetkin had the gas to keep that going for 12 rounds (which he didn't, but Usyk does).

I think Joshua beats him, but based on the first three rounds with Povetkin, I can see how a mobile, skilled boxer with a good gas tank (which Usyk is/has) could beat him over 12.

Anthony Joshua has no problem with facing Oleksandr Usyk next.

I am sure he will have an even lesser problem facing someone from an even lower weight division. Is that a positive or a negative?

Let Usyk fight 2-3 fights over a 12-18 months period and gradually gain weight and power while also gathering experience at the HW level. His team risk ruining his career if they rush him to face Joshua next.

Al is putting in the work to keep boxing afloat while bob, tom & hearn making holes in the ship.

All Haymon has done is sheet on boxing and boxing fans by making his fighters duck and run when a big opportunity comes along.

He will offer him 500k, couple of McDonalds vouchers, and a years worth of free car washes.

If he can avoid Joshua's bombs all night and make it 12 sure he may be in with a chance. He also does not hit anywhere near as hard as Povetkin does.
