I really don't understand some of you who are so confident in Usyk...

    Good breakdown, but i don't 100% agree with this. Aj doesn't have to be the aggressor. He can use his size and reach to pot shot at range like he did against Pulev (likely landing on Usyks guard) and that would encourage Usyk to come into mid range to land shots to even out the cards at some point. Thats the range Ajs best at and he's a lot quicker than Chisora with his combos and counters. Don't get me wrong Usyk is a lot better than Pulev, better head movement, mobility and better ring iq though, Pulev was a stationary punching bag lmao. But Pulev even past it has a good jab and is bigger than Usyk and Aj outjabbed him pretty comfortably though it will be significantly harder against a moving target.


    I predict Aj wins a close decision. I also predict it will go similar to Lomachenko vs Lopez. But what do i know. Im not always on the ball with my predictions

    I see what you're saying though. Usyk imo beats the Aj that fought Klitschko and Takam, back then he was absolutly terrible at pacing himself and he isn't that good even now.

    Haye level yes. Holyfield, hell no. Hasn't done enough yet to be placed that high.

    Usyk has done it all.
    Cleaned house in a very competitive CW divsion by doing it on the road!!. A remarkable achievement really.
    Has shown no weakness in his game.
    Handled Chisora who just got robbed vs. Parker-former HW Champ.
    Usyk has given no reason to doubt him. Until he does I gotta go with the live underdog.

    Juicefield there is out of question, he had good only natural juice, we all do know this and do not bring him here up.

    Haye?
    I think he had considerably more 1 punch power than Usyk and also more than Bellew. Not always this does help.

    Well, the OP brought him up. As far as accomplishment go, Usyk isn't there yet. As far as drug cheat, Holy is a disgrace.

    He is an excellent boxer I don’t think he beats fury,

    he might beat wilder & AJ though.
    Based on his excellent boxing ability.

    Like you I don’t know,
    but based on both AJ & Wilders demonstrated weaknesses & flaws

    I do believe that Usyk does possess the boxing ability to exploit those weaknesses & flaws.

    I don't even know might he beat any one from current top 3 CW boxers, not alone HW boxers.
    However Usyk's resumes, btw both: amateur and pro are seriously and in depth undervalued as hell. In depth.

    When I had saw him vs Witherspoon, I really not sure is he now capable to beat even Makabu or Dorticos.

    Lad maybe now already had been used too much but his resume in depth is damn undervalued. Inclunding am resume and even this alone is better than 90% pro boxers does have together in am and pro ranks, he was real elite.
    Not unbeatable, still real elite for long years in row.

    Yeah you seem pretty on point in the RBR’s mostly. Just a joke man. No big deal. Don’t take it to heart.

    Did you even read what he posted? Was more in the line of questions, not a statement.

    He asked what people saw. I replied with a rhetorical question.
