    Usyk can't destroy anyone at heavy , he can't punch , no power . He just outboxes them , thats far from destroying

    Its clear you didnt read the thread where Usyk explained why he didnt KO Joshua in both fights. He would humiliate him and perhaps put the word "end" to Bodybuilders career.

    Usyk needs a thunderous KO and Zhang could be the perfect victim to silence his detractors.

    Usyk has not destroyed a Heavyweight yet and can’t see him doing it to Zhang either. Usyk is a talent and relys on his skill set and has no need to seek out stoppages,if they fought I can’t see anything else other than a wide UD win for Usyk. However I think it has already been mentioned but it would be interesting if Zhang was able to land anything of note on Usyk .

    USKY couldn’t crack an egg at heavy. Landed flush on chinny josh multiple times and the best he could do was a hip hip hooray and an in ring potted history of what’s gone on in Ukraine.

    Dude, that's some Usyk fairytale of his nobility. Ruiz already knocked AJ with just two weeks notice.

    The KO will come, dont be impatient. Ali's combos were less powerful than Usyk's.

    In the first fight he destroyed Joshua, dont forget he broke one of his eye sockets.

    Usyk doesn't destroy any top heavyweight

    Yes he's skilled enough to hang with and beat many of them, but that's different

    At this point in Usyk's career every fight is a challenge and maybe even a 50/50 going into the final few rounds where he pulls away

    I love Usyk but we have to be real here. Hrgovic and maybe even Zhang are banana skins. I wanted him to fight Wilder and retire

    Dude until now I only underrated Zhang with Joyce. I couldnt think he was so dumb not to protect his eye after the first Zhangs powerful blows.

    Usyk would school every heavyweight. :nusenuse:

    There's literally nobody active in the division that isn't facing both a significant class disparity and stylistic disadvantage (or at least a wash) versus The Cat.
