    He basically fought to a draw with a guy who should have lost by a huge margin to Noel Gevor.
    When was this fight?
    Are you sure it was Usyk?

      “Help me appreciate Usyk” sounds like something a girl says to another girl in a bad porno.

        He's saying Usyk had his hands full with Breidis who struggled with Khoren's adoptive lad.

        ******ist kinda triangle crap.

          Before a late KO, he was behind on every scorecard against a guy who got destroyed by a light heavyweight and was only brought up to heavyweight to be a victim for an aging star.

          But he beat a bunch of losers in an awful division so everyone thinks he’s great.
          You're talking about the Bellew fight there? The 8th isn't a "late round" and Usyk actually won the 6th and 7th. Even as an Usyk fan, I was surprised he was able to break Bellew down and clean KO him as early as that.

          You know, you can discredit literally any boxer who ever pulled on the gloves with the game you're playing there. Eg ... Floyd Mayweather's biggest wins were a late round stoppage over a weight drained MMA fighter having his first ever boxing match, and a disputed points decision over a blown up Asian midget who had been KO'd multiple times by flyweights.

            Be all and end all usyk is a good cruiserweight in a very mediocre division at the time ,since haye left and even during his tkme its been trash what with marko huck and whoever else dominating ,they were all journeymen ,there was nobody special

            Anyways when usyk took everyone out they were all unbeaten paper champions ,however unbeaten they were they were also unproven,the most experienced fighter he fought was in fact tony bellew and we all know hes a good fighter but not the most prestegious career what with being hot and cold in his preformances

            Bellew looked sensational against makabu though and he fought similar in the usyk fight so i do give usyk his best scalp in beating bellew that night but hes no roy jones like people make out

            The extra weight at heavyweight looked to me like it took all his strengths away from him and its a matter of time before he gets blown away if he sticks at heavyweight


            Lets not get it twisted hes the heavyweight paulie malagnaggi with his power in heavyweight,his stamina is out the window and it wont be suprising when he eventually gets hurt

              No, Lester/Mirko is too busy sucking Canelo's ****, plugging DAZN and posting LDBC videos as Uncle Al..varez to have time for anything else nowadays.

                I think he's going to do well at HW, but the Corana virus came at the worst possible time for him after he'd already lost momentum with an injury. At 33, and with VADA testing, he hasn't got the time or the roids to grow into the division like Holyfield did, and there's no Valuev level cherry pick champ to target like Haye.

                Usyk is going to have to roll the dice, go for broke and see what happens. But that's what he's been doing his whole career, really, which is one reason why I like him.

                    Floyd Mayweather is incredibly overrated too.

                      I think it’s ****** that you excuse everything and ignore evidence that someone might be overrated.
