Comments Thread For: Oleksandr Usyk Warns Anthony Joshua: I'm Coming For You!

['b']

Hmm. Well I can respect Oleksandr's ambition here but I'm not fancying his chances very much. Not unless allowing Delboi to push him around the ring was an elaborate ploy to lull Anthony into a false sense of security...

Not sure Joshua's got the same kinda dog in him that Delboi does but Dereck kinda laid a bit of a blueprint... you don't try to box Usyk you aim to bully him.

This. Bellew said something that was accurate for once, he said during the fight that Usyk wanted a boxing match but Chisora was making it a fight, which was plainly obvious but a good statement nonetheless.

Usyk is a good BOXER, and he also starts slow every fight - why would you take your time and play into his game, allow him to settle in, time you and then outlast and outland you?

I think Usyk does better against AJ early compared to the Chisora fight but ultimately gets caught. I just don't think AJ has WAR in his name like Chisora does (both in offense and chin) but he does have size, reach, power, technique over Chisora.

hhhmm what other fighters shouted 'im coming for u' to another fighter in the past i can think of, let's see, haye to vlad & eubank to ggg

I dont think Usyk packs enough power in his punches to KO AJ, his best shot is a decision win. Edge to AJ, probably KO to.

Easy work for Joshua, Usyk is going to have a lot of long nights at heavy if he doesn't start juicing.

Won't handle any of the higher Tier Heavy weights going on his performance against Chisora.

Usyk landed a lot of power punches to Chisora with really poor effect on him. I wonder: are Usyk's blows so uneffective at the hw?

[Tatabanya]

Only a certain type of fighter can defeat Usyk ,these are Fury , A.J and Hrgovic.

I think Hrgovic is a semi-bum waiting to be exposed, honestly. Just above the Guido Vianellos of this world.

I see Usyk-AJ being like Conn-Louis. Strong performance for Usyk until the 10th, then Joshua's power and weight become too much for him.

KO AJ over U 12th round.

Honestly didn’t see anything Joshua has to fear. Danger for Joshua is a heavy hitter

I am intrigued to see how Usyk tries to solve the puzzle. AJ's height/reach/power advantage is no joke, and Usyk does get touched a bit much even-though he's pretty elusive and makes full use of the ring.
