    Usyk is 6'3 and Wallin was 6'4, Ali was 6'2-6'3 would that have been a freak show? In the 70`s a 6'9 boxer would have been considered a freak.

    Duran not speaking English was part of his appeal, he looked like the main bad guy out of the magnificent 7, Usyk doesn`t have that kind of charisma and wasn`t Fury aiming this comment at eastern Europeans when he mentioned Usyk is not westernised? Is Panama part of the western world? Panama is near South America.

    That would be a great chess match and they are a similar height.

    A funny way of saying "I want no part of it." And this isn't the first time we here this about Usyk from a top HW.

    Usyk is far more skilled at landing punches than Garcia is and was one of the greatest cruiserweights of all-time, P4P Usyk is better than any heavyweight around.

    Usyk is more skilled than Haye, Wlad and Wilder his high guard will be very hard for Fury to penetrate without being countered.

    Seferi, Schwarz and Wallin were definitely better names!

    Panama can be in the North Pole for all I care...Appeal isn't relevant to any continent.

    Pac is the example- he started speaking English well----after USA chose him as the heir apparent aka cashcow when he whooped Ledwaba- He didn't speak English to become successful, that is my point.
    Fury is just a big mouthed- semi-heavy hitting dude who contradicts himself to no end LOL!

    Usyk is only popular on this forum...and the handful of people that I know that do know him don't even know how to pronounce his name lol.

    He is treated like a god on this forum, I will wait until he steps up until I really judge him...won't lie he seems like a decent bloke and he is a good fighter but we will see.

    Pretty much. Until Usyk has a strap at HW, anyhow.

    This begs the question if Usyk and Fury both become champions and face each other.

    What country will they fight? Just throw a dart at a map and go there?

    The last two undisputed CWs to move up to HW were David Haye and Evander Holyfield. So Usyk as the latest undisputed CW to move up to HW is a big deal- and should be taken very seriously. He is 6 ft 3 so has the size to compete, and competed at HW in the WSB

    Hopefully everyone has the same energy as when Whyte said the same thing, let’s keep it consistent.
