Usyk looked slow and unimpressive, no match for top Heavyweights

    He’s going to struggle in the division imo. He’s definitely lost some speed and movement he didn’t look nearly as freakish as he did at CW

        He clearly dominated every round from 2 on. Not sure what else you expected? Did you think he was gonna turn into Wilder and knock people out with 1 punch all of a sudden? He's gonna be smaller than every guy he fights now, he needs to respect the power of everyone at HW.

        I'd like to see him fight a tall guy next, someone as big as Wilder, Joshua and Fury to see how he fares. Maybe that Otto Wallin dude.

          Usyk will be 33 this January. Holyfield was 27 when he first moved up to HW.

          He is at that age now where fighters lose their speed, settle into their final style of their career, adjusting for less speed and favoring timing and landing bigger shots.

          Usyk doesnt have big power and if he looses speed then he just an undersized heavyweight with decent boxing skills, wont be enough to overcome Fury/Wilder/Ruiz/AJ.

            Slow?

            I think you slept most of the fight, TBH.

              Wasn't immensely impressive but he's got enough to beat Parker or Kownacki for the vacant WBO title early next year.

                I believe that is his goal, to become two division world titlist. Than he maybe fights Fury/Joshua/Wilder.

                  Eddie Hearn's goal too. Split the WBO from the IBF and WBA so he can make a Joshua vs Usyk unification.

                    Saw a couple threads here before I watched the fight, thought it was have been close or Usyk had trouble.

                    Lol, my read was he was doing whatever he wanted basically looked like he wanted to get rounds in. I wouldn't be taking too much of anything from that performance, good or bad.

                      Huh? Usyk is Mando for the Joshua v Ruiz winner as he was unified and moved up. How could Hearn be planning that, either Joshua will have all except WBC or none?
