    It’s all going over your head lad you are having a hard time accepting that Usyk is the man simply because he isn’t American.
    Usyk fought the best competition around where Floyd picked and choose who he fought ducking some good fighters and aging some out forcing some to fight at catch weights. Usyk wanted all the smoke. Also moving up and conquering the heavyweight division is a lot more dangerous even if the skill level is lower the danger is higher. Besides Diego Corralles I can’t think of any other prime elite world champion that Floyd fought.

    Usyk best wins have been torn apart and exposed in this thread only people coping refuse to see it. Fury was a fat drug addicted underachiever. AJ was a chinny stiff bodybuilder as stated for years here. What do you have left?? Only a fool would continue this argument pbf beat better fighters and historically already has been given that. It doesn't matter what you say no where outside of this forum is Usyk seen as greater than pbf and I don't care about how many likes you get or who big Usyk wins this bull**** poll. Pbf > Usyk:deal:

    It sounds like you are the one trying to cope lad. All fighters get criticised pretty harshly but the reality is Fury and AJ are dangerous men whether people want to admit it or not.
    Drug and alcohol addiction is nothing new in boxing look at Ray Leonard, Pernell Whittaker, Arturo Gatti, Mike Tyson, Kovalev even your boy Errol Spence and the Charlo’s just to name a few so trying to discredit Fury for this reason is pretty weak. Roy Jones Jnr was a chinny heavily muscled guy as well.
    This is the greatest boxing website around lad. You still can’t name a prime elite champion Floyd beat besides Corralles?
    Usyk being greater than Floyd is not as ridiculous as you think. It’s open to interpretation and remember Floyd was caught using an illegal IV Usyk has never done anything illegal.

    What's funny is Fury was almost a decade removed from his prime and coming off brutal wars against a limited Wilder, got a controversial decision against Ngannou

    Wilder maybe limited but he was extremely dangerous some people even claimed he was the hardest punching heavyweight of all time. Also Wilder was widely regarded as a top 3 heavyweight for almost a decade.

    Still ducking the question who else besides Corralles?
    Also Fury and Corralles are a similar level probably with a edge to Fury.

    And yet he beat no top 5 heavyweights. Isn't Floyds record too much ? Usyk is only greater off having no political advantage and fighting everyone on the road

    Usyk also fought more fighters that were in their prime.

    If Usyk spent as much time in the pros as Floyd, he’d probably have similar numbers.

    If Floyd spent as much time in the amateurs, he’d probably have similar accolades as Usyk.

    I’d say they are similar level of greats overall.
