Comments Thread For: Usyk: I Will Add More Weight For Future Heavyweight Fights

[ThomasJK]

Why not just dominate the cruiser weight division for the next few years and call it a career?!?! That is a more lucrative and viable business strategy imo. Nice win over a scrub, but against the big boys of the HW Div,...I am not convinced just yet. I’m a fan too.

Read my comment above. He will gain not much weight. Just 6 pounds and maybe 2 pounds more.

Won’t make much of a difference from where he’s at now , not at heavyweight
He won’t be able to take the power dished out from the bigger boys

Good thing Spong got framed. I don't think Usik is a heavyweight, period.

Make himself even slower and easier to hit, what a great idea.

Needs to look better and against a real top 15 caliber name next

It doesn’t matter, at one point you will get caught. I just hope you are stronger than Evander Holyfield or else you will soon know that size matters. Sooner or later heavyweights get used to your speed but will you get used to their power? The jab alone hurts, when they lean on you or hold you will feel it. Time will tell man.

He said that he will weigh at least 100kg (221 pounds) if not a bit more for future fights. Egis Klimas forgot to translate this.

Good to hear, let's go champ!

His fight with Chazz Witherspoon was never going to serve as a proper gauge, but Oleksandr Usyk gained enough from Saturday's win to confirm his intentions in the heavyweight division-moving towards a title shot as quickly as the process will allow.
