Well, not necessarily for many years. Let's say for a year or two. Usyk is 31 — that's quite young for a HW.
He won't lose too much even by 34-35. And that's 3 to 4 years from now. Lot's of time with a good promoter (when a boxer actually fights and not wastes years waiting).
we will have to agree to disagree on this one. he has cleaned out cw like no active fighter has cleaned out a division. his destiny lies at hw, rise or fall.
Can't see that happening. The winner will fight Joshua, even if it's Chisora, Chisora will have gained Whyte's WBO mandatory status and it will be done as a mandatory defence and will likely be a huge fight. Chisora will be the plucky underdog veteran and Brits love a plucky underdog story. Loser whether it's Whyte or Chisora would be more likely. Usyk builds his brand vs another UK fighter on the undercard of Joshua in April and builds further interest in a showdown with Joshua.
I agree he'd run circles round him, but there's a best part of 3 stone diff at the moment between them
