    His chin is one of the best in the last 20 years. He took quite heavy punches from Joshua , Fury , Chisora and didn't buckle.

    And his body too. Fury landed some nasty shots on his body however Usyk went on.

    Usyk’s chin has an A+ grade no doubt. After the Gassiev fight I said that! Gassiev has NASTY power and he cracked Usyk with two REALLY hard right hands in that fight and Usyk wasn’t close to going down.

    That’s why I laughed at some who pushed the “He can’t take the Super Heavyweights power doe!!” narrative. I knew he would be able to.

    He's a throwback...iron chin...unlimited stamina...wants to face the best and test himself...fights with heart, determination, no fear, no quit attitude...

    Trust, its excellent. Fury can drop many fighters with that shots, but he didnt managed to do that with Usyk. Usyk seemed Holyfield hit by Tyson's uppercuts. He hold them without tha batting of an eye.

    Quite shocking, that was one of the things that I and many others doubted, his ability to take the power at heavyweight. It turns out he could take the power better than the established heavyweights.

    Yeah one punch at the end of the round that Gassiev landed would have knocked out 90% of HWs
