    Dubois put up the challenge. Is there anything for legacy there for Usyk, or would it just be a money decision he makes to accept.

    It's a title defense. Adds a point or two on that level.

    Dubois V Parker is a 50/50 fight, not sure why they're already talking up an Usyk rematch.

    No. Dubois lost every minute of that fight and got stopped by a jab

    No. Nothing at all. Parker will beat him anyway.

    Usyk Parker or Usyk Opetaia.

    No. When you stop someone with a jab, you can do no more.

    He should retire. I know money is important but he already got soo many $$$ that he can live like milioner for the end of life. Better end being on absoloutley top than after one fight cross line.
    He beat every best boxers in Hw now and 2 of them twice. Why he must beat everybody 2 time?

    Forrest Gump got good time right now but I dont want see that fight. Usyk getting older and who knows when his age start make difference.

    At the moment not really. Let Dubois beat Parker, Kabayel, or Zhang first.

    Last fight I want to see for Usyk would be against Parker. Interesting match up.

    Depends what Dubois goes on to do. Those wins have the potential to do more for Usyks legacy then all his other wins put together. Its the only Usyk win that has the potential to "age well". If Dubois goes on a wrecking tour for the next 10 years he'd take Usyk right with him to whatever heights he reaches.

    If Dubois beats Parker he is defo the number one challenger and to prove yourself as the champion, you need to beat your best challengers in Dubois or Parker.
