Usyk: Wilder is the easiest opponent for me, Fury is the hardest one!

I totally agree with Usyk here:

Agree as well. I think Usyk will box rings, circles and spirals around Wilder. Fury is just as awkward as hell and he's doing similar things to Usyk - except for that he's got massive size as well. This is a case where styles make the fight.

 

He knows.

 

Wake me up when this puny cruiserweight actually fights a heavyweight. Lol easy pickings for the devastating bronze bomber!

 

Once Wilder lands, he won't recall the fight.

 

You're going to sleep until Saturday night?

It's exactly how I see it. Fury would be a much harder fight due to his size, boxing ability and akwardness.

 

Usyk makes Wilder look silly. He already knows.

After watching that interview it looks like his wife told him not to make eye contact with Phelps or she would chop it off

 

Amazing that he really just has one thing to seriously consider. But that one thing is a hellified thing.

 

Wilder summed it up excellently himself in saying the other guys has to be perfect for 36 minutes, he only has to be perfect for one second.

 

Like his fight style, but it was this press conference that got me interested in seeing his past fights, just a naturally funny guy-with a mean streak.

4 some reason, I think when he gets old, he will look just like Dr.Bombay which makes him all the more comical to me.

Usyk knows what Fury can do, as do all the boxers who deal with him. Fury will get up for a fight with Usyk and bring his A game, it won't be like his 'keep busy' form. It's a very interesting fight. But I'd rather see Usyk dismantle Joshua or Wilder first.

Also, I say the Wilder fight is more dangerous for him than it is for Fury (and everyone saw how dangerous it still is for Fury). Wilder is fast, has fast hands and huge power, which compensates for a lot of technical things. He has a big reach advantage (unlike against Fury) and I think he can probably take Usyk's punch too. As Bellew points out, Usyk gets hit a bit ... you can't get hit a bit against Wilder unless you take him out in the process. So that match-up is pretty dangerous and Usyk might be underestimating Wilder. Fury was outboxing Wilder all fight too, it's not always enough. I think Usyk might be surprised how fast Wilder is when he gets in there with him.

 

lol, U do realize Usyk is weighing more than Wilder don't u? Have u seen Wilders legs? I've seen bigger legs on a Flamingo. You will see that Usyk standing next to Wilder, it's hardly a difference.

 

Yep, I can see that. I think he would handle most heavyweights pretty comfortably. Not sure about Fury though.

Usyk is a class guy.

 

Can’t wait to see Usyk in the ring with HWs. Fury is much larger but really struggles with southpaws. After seeing his last fight, I like Usyk in this matchup. I could easily see Fury avoid this fight and manufacture a bunch of excuses for not facing Usyk. Fury might act crazy but he’s no dummy.

This is a massive step up in weight for a true cruiser. Usyk has never given up this kind of size in his career and will be jumping into the heavyweight pond after a single fight against a glorified sparring partner. A huge step up in class and size.

He’s a slick fighter and has good power at cruiser. Not sure how it will translate to the HW class but we will not have to wait long to find our. Usyk does get hit more than I would like. He has a great chin at his natural weight but bigger guys hit harder and Wilder hits hardest of the bunch. He’s a dangerous opponent for anyone.
