Originally posted by _Rexy_ View PostI thought Usyk can only be WBO #1 mandatory if he immediately calls it when he moves up. If he has a fight before that, he loses that option. No?
When Hearn wanted Povetkin to be WBO mandatory in addition to WBA mandatory, the WBO made Povetkin mandatory. Then Hearn didn't want Povetkin to be WBO mandatory, so the WBO suddenly decided Povetkin wasn't the mandatory anymore.
Hearn's only problem is that now that Arum/Warren are gunning for the WBO belt at heavyweight, the WBO may not be as inclined to play along with Hearn's latest whim. So if the Usyk fight doesn't happen soon. Arum/Warren may insist Fury is the mandatory.

Arum just needs to remind WBO "Bros before Hoes"

Did you hear Wilder being the one that says he's waiting for the fight to be worth more?
How you still blaming Hearn?

Originally posted by KTFOKING View PostMaybe he can fight Povetkin then? I mean doubt he gets Whyte/Wilder/Fury, so what would be a solid opponent for him? Ortiz?
But I dunno if it is possible promoter wise.
Huguie Fury or pulev then...

Originally posted by KTFOKING View PostUsyk is a supreme talent but not the biggest of punchers so I'm interested in seeing how he deals with the bigger HWs who won't stop coming. His activity and pace would wear CWs out mentally and physically but can he do the same at HW? Definitely is the most skilled HW out there. Would have loved to see him fight Povetkin next. But if he dominates Takam, that's still a nice statement. Takam is a tough dude who was winning damn near every round against Chisora before he got stopped. And Chisora shortly after was beating Whyte on most's scorecards up until the stoppage.
Usyk probably would need one more solid win after Takam, but then let him loose against ANY HW.
He will need to be faster than josh and pack a respectable punch...then we have a fight...
