    What if Usyk fought Wilder instead of Joshua in 2020? Could Wilder KO Usyk?

    I find Usyk knocking out Wilder more probable than Wilder knocking out Usyk.

    Usyk is all wrong for Wilder. All.

    He (Wilder) is just to simple fighter for Oleksander. Maybe in 10 fights beetwen this 2 in 1 Wilder can win by KO but for sure You must have Usyk as big favorite here.

    Everyone knows Wilder gets outboxed by everyone

    but if he lands that right hand you're done

    Wilder needs to start using some of his boxing. In the 1st and 3rd Fury fight he was hitting the body decently and making Fury work. When he goes into a shell and relies solely on a single shot he falters badly.

    WTF?! People are still going on about this? :facepalm:

    Usyk has fought more legit bangers and murderous punching KO artists than any other current champ in the sport and loads more in the amateurs too, all of whom are far more skilled than that uncoordinated one-trick pony Dosser who can't box to save his life and gets outboxed by fighters who can't box, and none of them have dropped him with a head shot let alone knocked him out.

    Usyk would be by far the best fighter The Dosser has ever fought, the best boxer he's ever fought, by far the fastest, the most elusive, the most intelligent, the most skillful, with the best footwork.

    The skill disparity between them is astronomical and just in terms of talent and levels it is too.

    Somehow Usyk managed to win Olympic gold, World Amateur gold, European gold, go undefeated in the WSB against giants at SHW, become undisputed at CW in 15 fights, winning the Ali trophy in the process, and annexing 3/4 belts at HW in 19 fights, winning and unifying all his belts in his opponent's backyards, has fought more world champions in 21 fights than The Dosser and his surrogate gypsy father have combined in over 80, whilst facing a murderer's row of legit bangers and savage punching KO artists without being able to avoid a telegraphed right hand of a one-trick pony Dosser who has has fought trash, and who wouldn't even have his speed advantage against him :facepalm:

    Post of the year (although it’s only early January).

    People just don’t get it. Usyk is special. An all-timer. Wilder only crushes cans.

    AJ is both a more dangerous puncher and a better boxer than Wilder. If Usyk fought Wilder instead of AJ, Usyk would have another KO on his ledger at HW.

    :lol: Thanks

    Yeah, it's truly bizarre. Usyk has to whoop AJ 10 times for people to believe he's the better man and The Dosser has to get exposed just as many times before they realize he's a can crushing hype job who can't box

    Usyk would have given him a Boxing clinic & stopped him with accumulation of damage, very little chance of Wilder landing that telegraphed right of his to the head & Wilder has no concept of body work

    Not sure which is worse, the fact people are still hugely overrating Wilder or the fact people are still criminally under rating Usyk.

    The gulf in class is so large it's hard to actually quantify in words.

    Usyk by wide decision after one or two cagey moments where Wilder starts swinging and chasing after him. I think Usyk's hand speed and footwork would ultimately have been far too much for the Bronze Bomber.

    FFS. When will this topic die?

    Listen, Usyk beats any version of the can-crushing hypejob at any stage in his career, any way he wants to (but most likely by one-sided schooling and maybe a late TKO if Wilder disrespects him in the build up). This shouldn't even be in doubt by now.

    We going to have David Price vs Usyk and Tony Yoka vs Usyk threads up next? Because this is about nearing that level of ridiculousness.

    Serge ... when we for a moment are real we realize usyk from all noteworthy hw fighters has the least hw fights ( just 5 ) with the least hw oponnents ( just 4 ) and just one noteworthy hw opponent ( aj )

    His legacy is in cw , in hw he showed close to nothing .
