    I like Usyk's chances in this one. His speed and movement would be too much for AJ. I see Usyk stopping AJ in the later rounds. Usyk has power but he doesn't plant on his punches. He just prefers fast combos and moving away.

    Povetkin's power is incredibly overrated. Usyk has every chance of shaking Joshua as much as Povetkin did while having twice or three times the boxing ability. I'd sneakily think Usyk has one of the best chins in Boxing as well, he simply isn't fazed by any punch thrown at him. Very interesting fight, if guys like over the hill Povetkin can land on Joshua and make him look as stiff as he really is, then Usyk have every chance of taking him to school. How can Joshua live with the pace, intensity and output of Usyk who'll be at him for 3 mins for 12 rounds, not in bursts like Povetkin did. Power or no power, getting punched in the face over and over hurts and will affect Joshua.

    50 -50 fight. Joshua cant outbox him but carries more than enough power to KO him. He has physical advantages over Uysk but he had them over Takam and Povetkin and they had plenty of success against him and Uysk is better than both of them. Uysk hits hard enough to not give Joshua the chance to just try walk through him without a care in the world either.

    Usyk via a UD for me, but that would be difficult to actually get in England because the cards are so stacked in AJs favour.

    This fight would got the same as the Kell Brook - GGG fight. Smaller guy gets a bit of success in the early rounds with his speed/movement then boom the bigger guy starts connecting and its all over.

    As good is Usyk is, Joshua would eventually land a big shot.

    This is completely different, GGG and Brook are equally as good as pure boxers, there is a huge rift between the skill of Usyk and Joshua... Joshua will be hitting thin air all night, even when he lands, 2Slyk has an unbelievable chin, I just don't see it, Joshua is too slow, Usyk has an unreal gas tank, he can bob and weave all night if he wants and has enough power to keep Joshua honest

    Yeah I think that was Montero’s way of kinda cushioning the blast a little bit. Lol But we know what he’s saying and he’s right. Kudos to him for saying it. Dontaes Boxing Abomination has said WAY worse about Kovalev and a few others so...
