      Usky is completely overrated.

      I have been saying it for a long time in these forums 'Good fighter but most certainly not this all-time great innovator that people claim he is etc'

        Mmmmm, SMH, sounds a lot like an injury of convenience.
        Chisora would have been a step up from Witherspoon and give him some credibility at Heavyweight. Won't be surprised if he didn't drop back down and try to become Undisputed again.

          He's not overrated... but he has no business at the heavyweights... Hearn took him only to put him in front of Joshua, at some point...

            May still leaves enough time for another fight later in the year. It is more concerning that he seems to get injured quite a bit these days

                Usyk is overrated.

                He is a well schooled fighter who has mastered the fundamentals, as a fighter 'That is it'. Usyk has not one single attribute which 'You can describe as great'.

                Usually when fighters are moving up from the lower weight divisions, they have attributes which you can describe as great 'Which will negate the possible size advantages, that their competitors may have upon them etc'

                David Haye had abnormal speed, power and defensive capabilities, Evander Holyfield was immensely durable and physically strong, and was a complete fighter from a technical perspective 'It was these great attributes which enabled them to compete at heavyweight'

                Usyk has moved into the heavyweight division, with zero attributes that can be described as great 'He is just GOOD in every single area' which is why I described him as a well schooled fighter.

                I have seen Usyk blocking punches with a high guard, I have seen him walk into punches with his gloves up around his head 'And I have observed that he seems to have a inability to fight on the inside'. Usyk is not this GREAT innovator of the game which people try and make him out to be 'He was being out boxed by a weight drained/dead at the weight Tony Bellew or at-least he was making it very competitive.

                I don't see any conviction with Usyk's assault on the heavyweight division, I don't see the same kind of conviction that David Haye displayed when he stated 'It will be like the matrix, that is how bad I will make these heavyweights look'

                And there is no conviction there because deep down, Usyk and his team do not have the self belief that ether David Haye or Evander Holyfield displayed when they invaded the heavyweight division.

                Usyk's team are banking on all these heavyweights being so bad technically, that some how his boxing ability will negate the size/strength advantages that they may have 'Because as a fighter he has no real great attributes ZERO'.

                Oleksandr Oleksandrovych Usyk is the most overrated fighter I have seen in the past 10-15 years of boxing 'There seems to be a stereotype in boxing, where these fighters from former soviet countries are anointed with technical greatness' They are more easily described as great technical fighters over any other fighters in the game currently '70% OF Usyk reputation/credability is just one big stereotype'.

                    Read my other post in this thread 'I stand by my statement that he is completely overrated, the most overrated fighter I have seen within boxing for 10-15 years'

                    Time will tell, YOU will all see and understand.

                      It would be a smart one cuz he aint beating any of the top heavyweights.
