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

[Jkp]

True all time greats like AJ always dominate multiple divisions.

AJ has convincingly cleaned out the morbidly obese division, and scheduled to steam role the over 40's division. He is destined to beat cruiserweights and then maybe some feather weights.

He gets wiped out by AJ, Fury and Wilder. He did well in the back half against Chisora, but only because Chisora gassed out. Usyk did well to win, but he isn't anything close to an Evander. He will never win a title at HW.

Evander would have stood his ground, rocked Chisora with brutal counters and had Chisora running before knocking him out.

He’s not big enough to be a heavy . Chisora could hardly cut down the ring and landed bombs on him

Joshua is bigger again than Del and packs a decent dig . Love
Usky and think he’s a character but he’s gonna get piped buy any of the top 4

Huge Usyk fan here. This man is feel, he is very feel. I am cheering for him to prove everyone wrong.

But... I feel the same as you. He will outbox maybe any of the top HW. But sooner or later, a fight will break out during the boxing match and this is where Usyk will be found short. He has decent power, but he cannot KO a Joshua, Ortiz, or Fury. All three of those guys have a high boxing IQ just like Usyk, but deliver much more power in much larger packages. Usyk will have no answer for when he has to stand in front of someone and trade blows.

I think Usyk can beat about 5 of the top HW on movement alone. I like his chances against Ruiz, Parker, or Whyte. I would favor him over the young guns like the Joyce/Dubois winner. I think he could outwork Ortiz. I know he could beat Wilder.

But any of those could also beat Usyk, and I hate his chances against Joshua or Fury. He just is not a powerful enough HW.

Usyk only beats Joshua if Joshua doesn't turn up on the night. Chisora and Bellew both proved that Usyk can be hit. Joshua is another beast all together.

I would favour Usyk to beat Fury over Joshua any day.

Where are the laughing emojis.....I saw nothing from Usyk and I watched the entire fight on DAZN that suggests he would beat Joshua. He couldn’t really hurt Chisora and was getting hit often. How is that guy on the P4P list, ESPN is a joke.

[JakeTheBoxer]

I was under impressed with Hrgo at first, but I see improvement. He's massive, with good power, and his balance is improving. He's crushing the C class, so I'm still out on a final judgement.

I think usyk beats Hrgovic. Hrgovic doesn`t look like elite material to me.

Stylistically Tyson Fury is probably a better fight for Usyk 'He will be beat, but it is how he will be beaten'

He is facing near certain brutal stoppage with Joshua, but against Fury who knows? A points loss, but I don't think he will win a single round.

I commend Uysk for giving the heavyweight division a go 'He could of just stayed at cruiser-weight for a few more years, but decided to challenge himself'.

Joshua is slow and robotic. It is more likely that Usyk outboxes Joshua.

Against Fury i think he has zero chance to do anything.

I would not describe Joshua as slow, he has more speed than lets say? Dubois or Joyce.

His processing speed is maybe not as fast as Fury's, and body movements are a bit choreographed 'But for sure, he is not worryingly slow' etc.

Joshua couldn`t stop Parker, what makes you think he would brutally stop Usyk? Joshua couldn`t even brutally stop somebody like Takam.
