    Usyk is a clunky giant bully that doesn’t want to face heavyweights with the coordination of the old school heavyweights. He knows he’s met his match in Kabayel which is why he’s so adamant on fighting Dubois only.

    The clunky giants you speak of were the belt holders in the division.
    So, you weren't saying Usyk was a ducker prior to the Zhang fight. Just as I thought. Who are the 3 guys you placed above Kayabel?

    I had Usyk, Dubois, Bakole then Kabayel as the top 4. I needed to see more of Kabayel and Bakole on short notice with no sleep or camp isn’t a fair representation of him.

    Now that I’ve seen more of Kabayel I place him as number 1. Dubois is my favourite but the best heavyweight in the world is Kabayel. He’s the one to expose the clunky giant bully.

    Nothing embarrassing about it. Usyk better fight Kabayel to prove he’s not a clunky giant bully but he’ll definitely retire before mentioning Kabayel’s name.

    lol you have a Time Machine? I doubt they fight would have loved but if I were usyk I’ll retire. For his style he’s already a bit too old his prime was at CW, name me a 38/39 yo with that style/pace that still doing well at elite level?

    Usyk dominated Cruiser. That doesn't make sense.

    If he’s young enough to want to fight Dubois then he needs to get in there with Kabayel too.

    Whole point is heavyweights with good coordination like the old school not cruiserweights. And Usyk just about beat Bredis as well which shows some of the old school heavyweights would pick up some wins against him.

    If Usyk fights Dubois again, I'm comfortable calling that a duck of whoever. He knocked Dubois out with a jab last time. There is no reason to fight him again when father time's clock is ticking and fighters only fight once a year.

    I will be highly disappointed if Usyk's next fight is another pointless rematch. We have too many of them in an era when boxer's barely fight.

    Usyk should fight Parker next.

    Kabayel is solid, Usyk is a goat. I actually think Dubois has a better chance at beating Usyk than Kabayel. Yeah Kabayel stopped Zhang after landing 1000 punches and his engine insane, but I still think the best chance to beat Usyk is land one bomb. Dubois has that type of power. Kabayel has a chance but I don’t see it happening.

    Usyk has literally fought the best the sport has had to offer, but still some idiots will claim that he is scared and ducking x fighter.
    Unreal.

    I would not put it that drastic but yes , Kabayel with his body work is a nightmare for usyk,s glass belly so he will avoid this fight .

    You can be sure usyk is not happy to receive brutal body shots .

    He’s not fought Kabayel yet he’s just beat the clunky giants Joshua and Fury at heavyweight. He doesn’t want any part of a smaller heavyweight with actual higher level coordination.

    I don’t think anybody will one punch KO Usyk you have to break him down with process and keep up with his pace. Kabayel can do that. Usyk doesn’t want that smoke.
