After watching the the fight,I had a few takeaways.
1. Usyk still has a good enough gas tank to outlast heavyweights that think that they can just erase him early.
2. He proved that even though he didn't get hit really clean,he still withstood bombs from a 255 lb (who was literally trying to hit him anywhere)heavyweight for 12 rounds.
3. Usyk might not have one punch ko power,but more than once we was able to wobble his opponent,meaning he's no featherfist. Still really accurate and crisp with his punches.
Honestly,I think that he has to focus on being able to finish these big guys when he has them hurt. He can't afford to let it go to the cards, especially if gives away the first 2-3 rounds to let them gas out. Can he beat wilder? If he can avoid the right hand,sure. Can he beat joshua and fury? I'm not sure. He'd have to box perfectly,and even then you have 2 guys who are much bigger,and can both box and **** when they feel like it. It's an uphill battle,but I give him props for having the balls to move of from a division which he could have easily stayed king at for years to come.
