    Give him some time to fully adjust.

    Only guy I feel like he has zero chance of beating is Fury

      I pick Whyte, Ruiz and Parker over him.

      AJ/Fury are mismatches.. I can half see an argument for him out boxing Wilder, but he just go beserk one round and take his head off.

      I think Dubois could beat him, he probably has a good chance with everyone else.

      I haven’t seen enough of the other prospects like Yoko yet.

      He beats Hunter at any weight.

        I don’t understand why fans are confused. Usyk is entertaining to watch. His quick movement to evade punches and footwork around the ring is what helps you win fights. It’s his athletic gift. Can he take a hard punches from the HW elites is the question. I think he can of course, but by who is the question, and then apply that same question to other HW’s receiving the same type of shots.

        I’m actually impressed by Usyk’s current conditioning at HW. He’s doing good and fits the part. He was always a HW to begin with. He just preferred to drain for Cruiserweight to start his career. If you can make the weight you make the weight!

          Yes, Chisora´s Berserk Tank approach is very uncomfortable for Usyk, and I bet that´s the reason Usyk wanted the fight. He can box circles around any HW, this was to test how he does in a bar fight vs a heavier stronger man. I had it 116-112 Usyk and his chin still seems solid, so nothing to worry about.

              Fury kills him, would fancy AJ to spark him as well tbh.

              I see the 6ft9 290lb Gypsy King mowing him down, Fury wouldn't bother boxing, he'd just go into terminator mode and walk through anything Usyk has to offer before shattering his ribs.

              Usyk would need an ambulance on standby.

                Chisora isn't a good yard stick.

                I do believe he is too small for the giants of the division, but they will afford him more time and space.

                  It's interesting. Usyk is Usyk... but at HW he has not shown anything impressive yet.

                  The problem is, neither Chisora or that other guy he thought hit him with a clean shot... and when Chisora was going to the body towards the end of the fight, Usyk looked seriously irritated.

                  I really do think Whyte would spark Usyk out. (and I am not a Whyte fan at all).

                  Can Usyk outbox A LOT of guys? Sure... but can he finish any HW off or actually cause them problems? I seriously doubt that.

                  At this point I think Hunter adjusted to HW better than Usyk.

                      when have I ever said anything even remotely close to that? He's vulnerable but I think Whyte has a fair chance against all the top boys. Go check all of my post history.
