Comments Thread For: Usyk vs. Chisora Confirmed For October 31

Looking forward to this one.

And why would Usyk have been faking these past injuries - what’s the incentive to do so?

This man is an undisputed champion who won each belt on foreign turf and stepped up every time. Put some respect on his name.

No respect on his name until he fights someone with a pulse and stopped being perpetually “injured”.

He’s just looking to cash out with a big payday. Holyfield achieved more than him in the CW and didn’t fake an injury when he moved up.

Halloween fight..nice

During the day too, so we don't have to miss Inoue/Moloney.

Good fight for Usyk. Chisora will be a punching bag.

This should finally settle whether Usyk's a viable heavyweight contender or not. Personally I'm still sceptical.

You have every right to be skeptical. Just common sens IMO. Lokking at the top 10 or even top 20, the skill level at heavyeight is so low that I think Usyk will be fine for the time being. Few have the skills to keep Usyk honest.

For some reason, I get the feeling Usyk won't be fighting for much longer. A title shot and maybe a few big paydays and he's gonna walk away healthy to enjoy the rest of his life. Just a gut feeling no facts to back this up.

You didn't answer why he would fake an injury.

And Holyfield not faking an injury adds nothing to the discussion. Though now that you bring him up, he did have a heart problem that then disappeared when it suited him.

Like how everybody so far has been looking forward to this contest despite the fact that it's Chisora with almost double-digits losses. In spite of that, he is real danger to Usyk just bc of his size and durability alone. Usyk is clearly levels above him in just about every other category, but can he hit Chisora hard enough to keep him off of him and stay moving for 12 rounds? Very intriguing matchup.

I look forward to it but really I don’t think it’s intriguing because Chisora has looked garbage against anybody that can jab and move. I think it’ll be one sided, as much as I like Del Boy.

As Fury said about a Chisora, “Stick a jab in his face and he is useless”

WAR Usyk!!!!


It's about dang time.

What I want to know is, does anything happen to Usyk's WBO mandatory shot if he loses? Or this is not the same situation as with Whyte/WBC?

Good thinking there. After all, he's seen countryman Gvozdyk do the same, albeit after a brutal loss but still at the peak of his career.
