So, Usyk vs Povetkin is inevitable next?

Pov did well to marginally beat/draw with HUck who is a backdoor HoF type.

 

Well thats good news for journeymen around the world then.

They can reach top 5, make lots and lots of money, and make good runs at title shots.

Whyte is inspiring troubled kids in london and average joe journey men.

Fine by me. We're all in it for a bit of fun, and if a title holder gets knocked out by whyte in the process.. even better!

Good luck to Usyk if he fights a top 5 heavy, you will be in for a rude awakening.

Usyk has my respect either way.

 

Ballsy move for your first fight at HW if it happens. Though Pov is past his best, he's still a top HW and AJ's second best win.

 

Usyk will smash average Chubby boy

 

All the Brits praying Povetkin wins..LMAO

 

absolutely not, chubby boy will continue his average career to get smashed again in my view

i think perhaps you do not know that UK is a fractured kingdom of many regions.

 

Why would we do that? If Usyk wins I'll be there celebrating with you!

If he loses, we'lll say 'I told you so, hahahaha, omg man you guys never listen'

 

I like both guys but would prefer Usyk to win. I cheered the place down when he iced Bellew.

 

Lol at people who say Povetkin is some big massive heavyweight. Usyk is actually bigger than him. Usyk is taller, has a longer reach and has wider shoulders too. Povetkin just has a bit more girth because he's carrying a ton of dead weight i.e fat. H If Pov was really disciplined he could easily make cruiser. Povetkin weighed in at 100 kg for Joshua. He was flabby. Could easily shed 8 kilos in water and fat and make the cruiser limit.

 

I rate both extremely highly and back both in a fight against any other HW apart from AJ. I am really looking forward to this fight.

 

Isn't that what Huck did against a younger fresher Povetkin, fighting him to a close SD?

 

Very high risk, very high reward for Usyk. I'm not sure if it would be smart, though. Maybe the 4th best HW in the division in his first fight in the division? I think if Usyk get's a HW match under his belt against someone like Takam, and looks real good in a win, I'd make him a solid favorite against Sasha. But right out of the gate? I'd probably have Povetkin as a very slight favorite.

Still, if he wins noncontroversially, it would not only make a lot of money, but be by FAR the best entrance into the division in history. I think you could legitimately call it a HW "Big Four" at that point.

 

Great fight but a bit silly risk IF Usyk fights Povetkin.. I thought Usyk would want to fight a giant to prepare for the top three? I rate Pov the most skilled HW today, just a bit too small and too old. Still #4 HW.

 

This makes way more sense. Povetkin is literally a cruiserweight who ate too much cheeseburgers.
