    Usyk get 34 years old, he is too old for his style.
    In this age the reflexes, the flexibility isn't the same.

      Definitely a factor. Also think Chisora came out motivated and aggressive. When he's motivated he's a handful. Usyk doesn't have enough power to keep alot of the big heavyweights off of him so he needs to rely on reflexes, athleticism and skillsets. Unfortunately reflexes and athleticism typically deteriorate as we age.

        Briedis a tough and skilled fighter. He's been in some wars and usually comes out on top. Knocking out Manuel Charr is one thing, not sure if the HW division is something of a good idea for him.

          He actually has some things he can accomplish at CW. Hope he stays.

            Yes I've been saying this for a while, he also took longer than usual to get his second wind.

            I think he's on the decline, he has not long left to make his impact at heavyweight
