    world level chin, world level heart, pub level speed, good power but only in left hook and ass plucked overhand right, skills arent above european level.

    Ranking of top 10-15

    Fury dominated him like nobody else can/could in the 2nd bout.

    Literally toyed with him in the second fight, spent the final few rounds looking at the ref to save him.

    The 1st bout was a top british level HW fight at that stage in Fury's career, a very good win. This is 9 years ago you can't disregard.

    Meanwhile AJ & Whyte go life and death with Chisora.

    If Usyk didn't have skills he'd struggle with Chisora's dark, big and super sexy heavyweight frame.

    Gatekeeper type.
    Like Jesse Ferguson in the 1980s/early '90s.
    Or Dominick Guinn 10 or 15 years ago.

    AJ went life and death with Chisora?
    Am I experiencing the "Bovol effect"?

    I'm usually crap at telling sarcasm through text but even I could see that one from a mile away.

    Currently a HW gatekeeper. If he loses this, it's journeyman status or retire. But still, he should NOT be taken lightly. Unless Usyk gets caught flush and hurt, should be a clear win for Usyk.

    Also Dominick Guinn, Monte Barrett, Jameel Mccline etc..........

    He's HW truth serum. He'll expose you if you're not supposed to be at that level. The definition of "Gatekeeper"

    He's a tough journeyman/gatekeeper type who'll knock you out if you're no good and pave your way to a top ten fight if you win. Even though he has a win over Takam I'd actually consider him around a similar level. Would be lower if Takam had beaten him, since he was getting his ass beat.

    Re: robberies, the only fights you could consider robberies were Whyte 1 and Helenius. He wasn't robbed in the Pulev fight, and I think Pulev is a stiff mummy.
