Has AJ cherrypicked Usyk?

Okayyy....

And that applies to my point, which is that Joshua could've fought Usyk earlier (kept it on the back boiler for as long as possible, would've kept it there longer had Fury been allowed to take the fight) and will benefit from Usyk ageing?

Or does that apply to people who think AJ chose to fight Usyk at all and think it's a cherrypick?

 

It's almost like this forum is comprised of different people with different viewpoints.

 

Think you`re overthinking this one.

 

Not really. He would have been accused of avoiding Usyk otherwise.

 

He knew the Fury fight would be a arguably significantly bigger name on his resume and a bigger payday. Hearn always said if the Fury fight doesn't happen he'll make the Joshua/Usyk fight and it did fall through so now he's being a man of his word.

Possibly, but your reply made no sense in context lol

 

It might be a good stylistic match up, but you can't cherry pick a former undisputed champion,who happens to be undefeated and ranked at heavyweight

I Don't know if it's the toughest test available, time will tell, but it is certainly the biggest

 

If he can't beat Usyk why even bother with Fury

They'd rather skip straight to the Fury $100m but sometimes life has different plans.

 

Stop this…. He hasn’t even fought Usyk and you’re already trying to discredit a potential win.

The hate is real

 

uysk points on pure skills

 

the truth

 

and thats whats great about agreeing to disagree

 

Agree. They,d have dropped the belt if usyk looked really dangerous. Eddie would be trying to put whyte in usyks way imo.

Smaller and light hitting should always really be a good joshua opponent from a promoters perspective.

 

mandatory so no.. but obiviously Usyk has looked average at hw... and hes 34 now.. i want usyk to win tomorrow but iain't confident about it.
