How high in the ATG rankings will ya'll place Usyk once he beats Fury and Wilder. I can see him stopping Wilder, we saw the problems that the southpaw King Kong gave him, almost had wilder outta there
If Usyk can beat Fury, it would be one of the greatest victories in the history of boxing. Fury is a skilled boxer who is 6 inches taller, 7 inches longer and 50 lbs heavier. Imagine any fighter in boxing taking on another skilled fighter while giving up that much in height and weight. Usyk is no power puncher so he doesn't even have a puncher's chance. I don't expect Usyk to beat Fury, but if he did, I'd be shocked.
Here's the thing, you might say "oh, he only went 22-0" after, yeah, but over half of his opponents were legitimate contenders, and some were HOFers (Joshua x2 and Fury in this scenario) His resume would trample Rocky's in terms of prime great opponents beaten. Rocky is a staple of the top 10 HWs for being undefeated, so why can't Usyk replace him?
If he beats Fury he's definitely top 10 for me. If he retires undefeated I'm putting him top 5,maybe 1.
High up, but Definitely not #1. For that to be true, you would have to, at a minimum, rank AJ-Fury-Wilder above Liston-Frazier-Foreman.
