    Usyk is likely clean which is why he won’t be able to make the jump

    Usyk isnt losing to heavyweights, his biggest challenges are smaller, more mobile fighters like Breidis or Hunter.

    Usyk works hard, is faster and it's much more durable, Parker dont go in search of the nokaut like crazy.
    The speed diference would be the key.

    I never ranked neither Parker nor whyte in my top 5.
    Today I rank Whyte in my top 10 even though i think he lost with Chisora and Parker in my top 15.

    Joshua feeds off Superheavy’s, his biggest foes were those from lower weight classes. Beterbiev dropped him in the amateurs I think, yet he was never dropped by massive 250 pound monsters in the AMS with ( no headgear)

    Nah everyone who has followed Usyk since the amateurs knows his stylistic strengths and weaknesses. Nobody at heavy can beat him other than maybe Wilder imo, I’d still pick Usyk. I never liked Usyk being at cruiser when he turned pro, I thought that’s where he is more likely to lose. Thankfully he’s made it through the cruisers undefeated, time to outbox these heavies and make some serious money.

    I know where youre coming from.... and if I rated Miller -at all- I might be inclined to agree with you... but I just dont see it. I think Usyk schools him every minute of every round.

    Time will tell how good Miller is. If hes better than I thought, Ill admit it.

    As for Lara Hurd... I know what you mean, but I picked Hurd to win. I normally take size into consideration when assessing matchups... but Miller just isnt good enough for it to define the fight, just in my worthless opinion.

    Who knows though... we might actually get to see this one play out. I could see Miller being chosen as one of Usyks fights leading into AJ.

    That’s a great point,look what he’s done to one of the most stacked Cruiser weight divisions ever.
    Not a great thread title either using the term “die”,bad enough watching a badly concussed Bellew having to do an interview whilst clearly brain damaged.

    We’re Usyk to do something silly like try and fight AJ on the inside then of course he gets beat but I’ve not seen many mistakes if at all from Usyk yet,spare me about him getting hit as that’s just boxing.

    The heavyweight division is more exciting these days, but that doesn’t mean it’s good now. I don’t rate any of them that highly, wilder lacks skill and has been exposed as limited apart from his power, and AJ is slow and combersome. Fury I can’t even comment on until his fight with wilder, which I expect him to lose anyway. I could see usyc having some real success if the size disparity isn’t to great, he is in a different class skill wise.

    You say this without him yet even fighting at hw. Such a overzealous prediction. I like usyk but he will be dwarfed at hw who knows how he will perform against these giants with one shot ko power.

    You know Medzhidov, the guy who wobbled Joshua all over the place and beat him with headgear on? Usyk fought him in the WSB without headgear and schooled him. You know Olympic super heavy medallist Joe Joyce, Fury’s 6’5 sparring partner? Usyk fought him in the WSB and schooled him. We have a pretty good idea, which is why I think the heavyweight division is best for him.
