Usyk not fighting Fedosov

[Nash out]

Good. Fedosov is garbage and has no tools to test Usyk. Get Big Pricey in there. At least he can punch hard, and has that very small chance which Fedosov does not. I actually think Usyk is going to flop badly at heavyweight.

I'm hoping Takam still takes it

I don't get what the issue is with Takam, only I suspect he wants a bit more cash. People talking like signing with DeGuardia was the end of the fight. DeGuardia's other top guys are Andrade, Smith Jr and Algieri, all fighting on DAZN.

I like that match-up. Price is huge with power and a reach advantage. Usyk will need to use his skills.

Takam just signed with STAR boxing but promoter Joe DeGuardia works well with other promoters. I wouldn't mind seeing Usyk/Takam as well.

It's definitely more interesting than Fedosov. Price has two tools that can pose some problems to Usyk, power and size. Fedosov has none.

It's like the Povetkin/Hammer/Price triangle. Povetkin is by far the best of the three, but Price had him rocked (standing 8) and more time that round may have won, he could on his day beat Povetkin. Hammer couldn't beat Povetkin in 1000 goes imo, as he doesn't possess anything that would bother Povetkin, but Hammer beat Price, as Hammer's decent all round game, can beat a fading Pricey.

So, yeah, on the percentage scale I'd go Usyk vs Fedosov 100-0 Usyk. Usyk vs Price 90-10 Usyk, same with Usyk vs Takam. Usyk really needs to get his debut out of the way though as this is a long spell of nothing for him.

Neither do I. It's a massive opportunity for him at his age and one if he loses doesn't really knock him any further back anyway, and so much to gain from it.

I made a comment about this in the last thread about Usyk and no one paid it any mind but I had a feeling I was right about this.
