AJ vs Usyk is next week

No surprises that it flew right over your head, bud.

Uh.... that is comparing Fury and Joshua with Ronaldo and Messi. You've literally presented them as a comparison, and you've got the gall to dismiss my reading comprehension when you can't even understand the simple concept of comparison, and its many applications.

Football "celebrates" Ronaldo and Messi because of what they have accomplished by way of being incredibly talented football players. You're saying that Britain should "celebrate" them the same way football "celebrates" Ronaldo and Messi, but why? What reason do the public have for doing so?

We've got one guy in Fury whose career has been stop/start for about six years, and another guy who has had one fifty-fifty bout in his entire career, and against his biggest rival's sloppy seconds. Where Fury and Joshua are largely all talk, Ronaldo and Messi are the opposite. It's a poor analogy.

 

Well football benefits from the best having to play the best regularly. There's no league table or knock out competition in heavyweight boxing.

If I was to put one boxer alongside them it would be the guy who beat Gassiev in Russia, beat Breidis in Latvia, beat Glowacki in Poland, beat Bellew in UK, beat Hunter in USA, beat Huck in Germany , and is now going to beat Joshua in the UK

 

A few people writing off Usyk for being a cruiserweight but I can assure you that having met him that he is a unit. Not a super heavyweight like AJ, Fury or Joyce but he’s a big big man. Bigger than heavyweights like Ruiz, Chisora, Kabayel, Povetkin and Takam’s etc and more up there with Whyte and Parker in size and stature. Plus he has the eyes of a killer.. I’m just leaning towards AJ though based on Usyk’s wear and tear from a career of hundreds of fights at elite level.

 

Interesting post mate. I've heard he's bigger than a lot of people think too. Plus, Ruiz Jr is hardly a giant is he (apart from round the waist), and he knocked Joshua down four times, so I wouldn't rule anything out.

 

Most people who watch boxing think of CWs as "smaller" HWs.

 

I've had a bet on Usyk 20/1 to win in rounds 10-12.
Wouldn't be surprised if Joshua wins but thought those were good odds

 

Usyk can do some serious damage to AJ but he knows that, he’s gotta be clever and pick his moments - box and move. It’s a very very intriguing fight.
