    His power is underrated - as he was about to KO Joyce

    Size doesn't matter and is no advantage vs him

    It's impossible to land punches on him

    He has a granite chin

    You can't defend against him

    He wiped out CW and AJ and co have no chance against him at heavyweight and will be schooled and stopped.

    Can ANY MAN stop this dude?

    You haven't left much room for argument with your opinion, there.

    Personally I think size will be an advantage against him in the heavyweight division, and that will be his downfall. Well, that and the lack of power.

    Nobody is unbeatable.

    Usyk has outlier-level skills and he looks to be physically superb.

    But there's a lot of lbs against him at HW and he doesn't hit particularly hard. I want to see how he fares against skilled HW's before proclaiming that he walks on water. An average 6'6 HW can still one-shot a guy if they get lucky.

    If he became a force at HW I'd be really happy because Usyk is as slick as F and, bonus, he also looks like the Kurgan.

    He is only a man, so he isn't unbeatable, this is boxing and anything can happen, this is not an exact science like maths.
    With that said, Usyk IMO is favourite vs anyone in the sport of boxing right now

    Of course he isn't. He almost was beaten by Mairis Briedis

    No, but it is indication that it can of course be done, no?

    This puny cruiserweight Usyk and his followers, are beginning to get on my nerves. Any fight set up against Joshua, should be nothing more than a exhibition bout, in a circus or country fair. This will look like Apollo vs Drago. I see it now, a ferocious stiff bodybuilder hammering him against the ropes, and pounding him down to the canvas. While his cornerman throws in the white towel. It's all going to end in tears, when Usyk realizes his power punchers are having no effect. Lol.

    No that's not true i have it on good authority from this board that Usyk in fact utterly dominated Bredis who is possibly the #2 best fighter at CW or heavyweight

    First reach is insurmountable for usyk in my opinion. Fury also probably out weighs him by 6 stone or so.

    with furys gross size disadvantage impeding him, theres is no way on earth he can compete with 2Slyks stamina, workrate volume and of course slick accuracy.
