Usyk: "I'll fight Wilder in his hometown and he won't win a round"

[BangEM]

lol that's not usyk saying that.

That's what he said.

When are you yanks going to back that faux bravado and big mouth up? Time for Wilder to take the challenge. He can't keep ducking quality boxers forever. His resume is trash as it's, he needs to level up.

And then everyone would complain that Usyk is too small. I like Usyk, but he loses this fight

Yes indeed!

you trying to protect Josh from him or something? No way in hell Wilder's fans pressure him to cap some CW when he still isn't undisputed.

People act like Wilder hasn't been outboxed by C level fighters over and over before finally landing something. Usyk will make a fool of Wilder if he fights smart and he most likely will. Obviously if Wilder lands something big it's a game changer but eventually Wilder will pay for his lack of technical ability. Well he already did really and got a gift.

[STREET CLEANER]

Exactly what wilder does. Use the British guys names AJ,FURY, DDD to promote his fight with the Grandpa.

His KOes is what promotes him. Hearn is a pro promoting his fighters with other fighters names. Arum has been doing the same for decades.

Hahaha Usyk is going to bring a lot of fun to HW. I can't wait for him to climb up the ranks and become a mandatory

[GhostofDempsey]

It would be a good fight. Usyk won't be any smaller than some of the other cans that Wilder has fought. So he shouldn't be using that as an excuse to avoid him. Whether or not Usyk can take his power remains to be seen. He took several flush right hands from Bellew and walked right through them, but I can't see him walking through Wilder's right hand. Usyk also likes to fight his opponents from the outside, he won't be able to do that with Wilder, he'll need to work his inside game.

[The Big Dunn]

I like Usyk but this is the kind of PR BS Arum and Hearn fighters resort to whenever their opponents are not up to par. Call out a Haymon fighter and then NSB's anti haymon set deflects to PBC fighter is ducking because they didn't respond to the call out.

Reasonable people understand Usyk's opponent tested positive. Reasonable people also understand he got hurt and wanted to comeback against an opponent that he could look good against and get his timing back. Then step up a level and position himself for a WBO Hwt title shot.

Hopefully this fight does happen because IMO Usyk is a tremendous fighter. If he can handle HWT power then he has a chance to defeat all the top HWT's, including Wilder and AJ.

I see Usyk is now hated by LDBC worshippers who love it when one of their guys show (unwarranted) confidence. Usyk, a proven elite fighter shows confidence and he’s a “bum” all of a sudden and a “coward” and a “fraud”? He’s moving to heavyweight to do big things. A weight class y’all think he’s too small for and out of his depth. Think about how ****** that makes you sound.

Wilder has a punchers chance with anyone. Usyk has a better fighters chance and a boxers chance. These heavyweights are mediocre at best. Usyk would only lose to any of them via fluke KO. I think he’d beat them all. I said a year ago he’d likely shut out Joshua. Fury because of style, size and talent can be a style problem. He’s the only heavyweight with some skill.

Building up a potential mega fight in the future. Love it. Hopefully after a couple Heavyweight wins on US Soil, Usyk picks up a bigger fan base on this side of the world. Usyk/Wilder a potential mega fight
