    I think he should fight more often. One or two more fights and later on a title fight. It seems that K2 are bringing him a bit slowly. Haven't heard anything about his next fight and the first quarter of 2015 will be over soon.

    Usyk might outpoint him for three rounds but he didn't look to me like he had a lot of power. I think over a longer stretch Joshua's power would tell. Plus, who's to say that Joshua hasn't gotten better.

    I agree on Usyk, hell of a talent, but he's got the same problem every crusierweight moving up has. Size. It's a huge jump from 195 lb.ers to 235 lb.ers.

    Also, he's 3 years older than Joshua. Not much of a difference now, but 24 vs 21 is a big difference.

    Really doubt someone "only" 6.3 and with his frame is going to dominate heavyweight. I think he should stay in CW

    Joshua was basically a kid in those tournaments, and he start boxing late.

    His potential hasnt even been touched yet

    I agree, I see him as a cruiser weight poor mans version of Lomachenko. Which is still pretty damn good, but I don't expect him to be an ATG or anything. I hope I'm wrong, I'll get more excited about him if he moves to heavyweight.

    Once the guard changes, the younger really big guys aren't that good. I think a 6'3" has the possibility of dominating the heavyweight division.

    How convenient he has ducked HW and beasts like Fury, Wilder and Joshua to feast on one of the worst divisions of boxing :patsch

    Elite boxing brains consider Isaac Chamberlain the top CW prospect... he would school Usyless 12-0

    Its a pity there are no Americans dominating Cruiserweight, we don't know what we're missing out on, its a great division.

    Usyk also has a massive frame he'll fill out with ease at HW and probably retain most of his athleticism.
