    Who would win if Usyk moved up to HW? Usyk could outbox Joshua, but Joshua could end the fight if he lands a big right hand.

    usyk UD or late stoppage... personally I think he toys with Joshua and makes Joshua looks like a amatuer

    He does indeed... He does indeed.

    It's not even debatable.

    Too soon to say. Usyk has the skill set and speed to be a problem for Joshua, but I'm not sold on Usyk's durability. If Joshua clips him early I doubt Usyk would recover.

    Garbage post 3 of 2018.

    Usyk not debatable beating Joshua? :imwithstupid:

    The only time he actually fought a decent sized guy who had experience who could box was Mike Hunter who hit him cleanly with simple jabs and made him work.

    That's right that's that 6'3 kid who is basically used for HW sparring, he's not actually a HW unlike someone who is a far better boxer that's 3 inches taller and over 40 pounds heavier you state is not debatable...

    Nothing to discuss a clear win for the non power puncher in his own weight class Usyk against the most proven current HW who hits more than hard?...what a dummy ....lol :picknose:

    Lomachenko's dad would have a field day dissecting that bodybuilder.
    Usyk would be well prepared.

    Usyk is incredibly skilled, especially for someone his size, but I just can't see him doing anything but getting KO'd. In a boxing match there are always engagements, in no world do I see Usyk holding up through those engagements. He would be massivley undersized against Joshua. I think Usyk is definitely the better p4p boxer though.

    LOL

    Your hatred for Usyk is hilarious, he is head and shoulders above anyone currently at heavyweight in regards to skills and ring IQ.

    If you assess Usyk off the Hunter fight then it proves you to be the AJ casual cuckold you appear to be.

    If Usyk can cope with AJ'S power, which I think is overated, he will dance around the stiff, his skill set is several levels above AJ.

    Usyk doesn't have the power to keep Joshua off him and he gets touched too easily, he'd get walked down and stopped in 6.

    Pay him no mind. That child would sell his own family if it meant he could have the chance to meet Joshua in the flesh.

    not quite on the Usyk hype train.. outside of the Glowacki fight I havent been overly impresssed. Haven;t dissected every video so maybe I;m missing something but i'd say 60/40 JOshua

    We really need to see how Usyk looks like at heavyweight before we can really see him as a serious threat. I'm impressed by what I have seen in Usyk so far, he has skills that could pose Joshua problems, but he needs to show he can hack it with the big boys before I'd pick him over Joshua.

    The Ukranian needs to get passed a decent gatekeeper like a Chisora or Takham first before that question could be answered with an educated guess.

    Give over,
    He wouldn’t cope with Joshua’s power and size
