Comments Thread For: Witherspoon: Usyk Would Out-Point Ruiz; Joshua Fight Tougher

[ceylon mooney]

I would favor Kownacki to defeat Usyk pretty handily for the simple reason that Kownacki does come out guns a blazing and doesn't stop until the fight is over. Plus Kownacki has some oomph behind his shots.

kownacki?
hed do as well as usyk lets him. he doesnt have a chance.

Kownacki is around Charles Martin level , go watch that fight , you couldn't have seen it. Everyone defeats Usyk , guys like Takam were never credited when AJ defeated him even he defeats Usyk thereś an entire thread on it. Ha., But the usual suspects on here knowing Usyk is in Joshuas line at title shot trying to discredit already . Ha

that martin fight said an awful lot. god, the kownacki fight would look a lot like the lne we just saw.

Martin is a bit better then given credit for but putting Kownacki and Takam.now as world beater is ****** . When AJ fights these guys they are bums , when others struggle with them they are proven ? If AJ struggled with Martin they would still bring it up. Kownacki fought a rusty Martin and no one says anything ita an off night. . Ha

Evander Holyfield was 6`2`` started his career at LHW and fought at HW at about 212 lbs. He was able to beat bigger guys like Pinklon Thomas, Michael Dokes, Holmes, Foreman, Quick Tillis, Douglas, and Bowe. Don't get me wrong , in way shape or form and I am saying Usyk will have the same success , in fact I predict he wont even come close ( especially after seeing how slow he started last Saturday ). My Point is though ,this article points out the disadvantages Usyk will have against Joshua and these are the disadvantages Holyfield had against most of his opposition at HW and still won.

Witherspoon would not have made it out of the first round with a '92 Evander Holyfield.

The point is, Holyfield had a HW punch. Usyk doesn't...

So when I point out Kownackis best win as Martin on a close SD win you have no real stance on how your statement that Kownacki mauls Usyk makes sense beta for Kownacki it's due to an off day ? Geez.

Yes, he ultimately won even having a bad day. And I expect my favourite boxer to have a good day always when cheering for him. Having a good day he will maul Usyk. Having a bad day he can win or lose to Usyk.
Simple as that and don't look for a second bottom where there is only one.

Holyfield barely knocked guys out who weighed over 230 overall. Usyk is getting attacked and just fought a guy over 230 in his first heavy weight fight , he doesn't get time to adjust right ? Ha

Oh please. Kownacki is a slow, flat footed brawler whose best wins were against the eternally mediocre Martin & a shop soiled Szpilka. He seems like a really likeable geezer but will never, ever hold a version of the HW championship. Usyk is way too savvy for your boy.

I agree though I think Ruiz might very well beat Joshua again.

Said exactly what he was paid to say

totally agree. I’m just saying there are lot of questions right now about Aj so maybe Usyk isn’t a walk in the park for AJ if they ever fight .
