Usyk vs Wilder

Have to favour Usyk of course, however Wilder only needs to connect once to turn Usyks lights out or get him proving Jack Dempseys quote:

" A champion is someone who gets up when he can't. ..."

Usyk would have to be switched on for the full 12 rounds.

 

Stopping an exhausted Wilder that has been windmilling at thin air for 10-11 rounds is probably my pick of the most likely outcome.

 

If AJ fights Usyk like he did Whyte he'll win. Don't know if that AJ exists anymore.
Wilder will have a punchers chance for all 12 rounds othwise loses by UD.
Fury would need to slim down a bit and bum rush Usyk. We'll see if he wants to go through that.

 

A terrible stylistic match up for Wilder.

Probably the worst possible opponent for him at the weight.

He’d never be able to time Usyk to hit him with a huge power punch.

He’d never be there.

Usyk is a great technical southpaw, with great footwork and angles.

He also has decent power, good speed and great accuracy.

Wilder would get picked apart.

A wide U/D or a late TKO.

 

As already mentioned with Wilder, if he manages to catch Usyk really clean then he'll probably manage to put him on his arse for sure. I think Usyk gets back up though.

I can't actually see that scenario happening with Usyk though. Usyk comfortably sees everything coming from Wilder, Usyk will fight accordingly. 12 round beat down and boxing lesson in Usyk's favour.

A bet I'd put on with an expected return.

 

I might bet a rack if they were scheduled to fight. Usyk schools him and has a very good chin ao he takes the few shots Wilder lands. Though one of them will be flush and will back Usyk up. Thats about as much success as i see Wilder getting

 

You say that after three fights with Fury, who himself is less than iron-chinned?

I would have thought that myth busted.

 

Fury has been down, more than once, against multiple boxers.

Usyk has never tasted the canvas.

Back to remedial stats class for you, lad.

 

This is what everyone said in three fights with Fury. He connected plenty and turned no lights out. Usyk's chin is a least as good, so...

 

I think that fight would be similar to the first Wilder vs Fury fight. But it's highly unlikely that Usyk gets up from a flush perfectly timed right from Wilder. Usyk would basically have to be perfect for all 12 rounds whereas Wilder just needs to be perfect for one moment. I'd still take Usyk by a lopsided decision.

 

Id pay “good money” to see this.

 

What if Usyk stops Wilder?

 

See above.

 

What version of Usyk? because if this ever happened Usyk would be at least 37, and therefore not as quick.

If we're talking prime Usyk vs prime Wilder, then I'd say 8/10 Uysk survives and UD's and maybe TKO's, although I'm not sure he'd have the power to finish Wilder who has survived beatings by heavier punchers, and held on for several rounds and still been dangerous.

2/10 Wilder KO's.
