    Is this fight even possible ? At cruiserweight . I think the size difference is to much to be honest and i think usyk would beat ward. I really don't understand why people actually see Andre ward beating or even fighting usyk . It's a very dangerous fight for ward.he barley got past kovalev fighting life and death. Usyk would stop ward. Although i do think it would be a great p4p showdown

    I believe Usyk is a bit too big and tall for Ward.

    Ud 12 or late KO.

    I really like Wards chances at LHW as he is a force, just not so much at cruiser as Wards not even a big lhw.

    ward is unproven at CW, 2Slyk must be assumed to win at this stage.

    WHy dont you wait till a fighter has entered the division until you decide. You need evidence to make a judgement, or else we are making conjecture.

    Elite vs elite. crem de la crem. I can understand why one cannot wait.

    Usyk destroys him.

    In fact, I'd bet on Gassiev, Breidis and co also beating Ward at CW.

    Ward would beat Usyk. Usyk's lack of power and an inside game would cost him against Ward. Also, Ward is twice the fighter Gassiev, Michael Hunter, or Briedis is and Usyk's stamina is very suspect.

    Usyk would be better off fighting Bellew, since he has a better chance of winning.

    Usyk in a very dominant 8 rd victory.

    Usyk is bigger, stronger, slicker, faster, better footwork, better body movement and more skilled.

    Ward would get humiliated

    Ward hasn't got the ability to get inside on Usyk.

    CW is essentially HW, only one former MW this century has (without PEDs) gone up to HW with title success.

    ALthough CW is a slightly diluted version of HW, its still a the biggest jump a la Jones. ANd lets not forget 2Slyk is the best of the best, not one of three titleholders like Ruiz. The evidence is against ward at present.

    best argument for eward is that one might say there is insufficient data for a meaningful answer

    Id still go for ward, just such an incredible fighter always finds a way to win. Uysk wouldn't be able to handle him on the inside

    "Who would win, Muhammad Ali or Ward?"

    "Id still go for ward, just such an incredible fighter always finds a way to win. Ali wouldn't be able to handle him on the inside"

    ^ I guarantee you that sooner or later you'd get a variation of this. :rolleyes:

    Ward is no cruiserweight. He's a light heavy that barely managed to beat Kovalev.

    Beat him twice ,koing him once.
    Uysk isnt a big puncher ward would make it a tactical fight and beat him on the inside.
