      Usyk only has to worry about Wilder, Joshua and Fury. From what I have seen, he will be top 10 hw soon.

      He could probably beat guys like Kownacki, Chisora right now.

        ... Usyk never displayed a "one punch power"... he's about accumulation of punches, slickness, a.s.o. ...

          Witherspoon is terrible lol what did you see?

          Seth Mitchell & Arreola had easier times against an actual prime Chazz.

            Wilder will send Usyk into a coma, if Usyk dares to fight him.

              I saw Usyk move well with the additional weight. Footwork was there, hand speed, movement.

              They were the only things I was looking for. What else would you see against a guy like Witherspoon?

              The other test is how he takes a punch from a big guy. That will have to come later.

                You must've been watching a different fight, Usyks pace slowed dramatically, he was getting hit with punches that looked like they bothered him. I expected a 1st round KO or something. Chazz gave out due to exhaustion.

                  Funny part is, Usyk beat Hunter and American fans see Hunter as a big threat in division, lol.

                    Usyk has never been some killer in the ring that comes in the ring and takes your head off. He's not a big puncher and a slow starter. Always takes his time to see what he's got in front of him. His whole thing is to pick his opponents apart. Why would anyone expect a first round KO?

                    I mean, Toney Bellew was winning the first few rounds against him. Bellew made it a competitive fight for several rounds landing clean shots.

                    He's definitely there to be hit and I'm not sure how he'll handle the better fighters that have both size and punching power.

                      This is his first HW fight....winning is more important than what ever you are looking for. He needs 2/3 fights to settle in. He is also human, he can be nervous as well.
                      Don't be a hater.
