Rico Verhoeven vs Oleksandr Usyk official for WBC Heavyweight Championship — May 23 in Egypt (DAZN)

That's a real knock on him that he doesn't punch harder than Mike

He might not be as big as Belly but he's an in shape 270lbs and is a huge guy

Maybe so but, again, AJ is a murderous puncher

 

Imagine forging a career fighting the best and tough touches B2B in their backyards again and again on a deck stacked against you or on the road

Literally jumping at the chance to fight them in their backyards time and time again regardless of how much bigger, stronger and more powerful they are than you

Their respective styles

How hard they punch

Whilst running a gauntlet of savage punchers and KO artists who are some of the biggest punchers in the sport, and legit bangers like few others

In their backyards or on the road

Many way bigger than you

With zero deck-stacking and trying to weaken or cripple them at the negotiating table or gain any kind of advantage be it fair or unfair to try and even the playing field

With zero use of dirty or illegal tactics to try and even the playing field and gain some kind of advantage

Many of them being undefeated, undefeated reigning champions

With all your opponents at the world level being 36 or under and many being much or you get than you when you are old and past your prime

Winning and unifying all your world titles sans 1 in their backyards and even the one time you don't the deck was still stacked against you

Whilst fighting all the world champions at least once in their backyards or agreeing to and even the times you didn't you still would've jumped at the chance to fight them in their backyards if that was what was on the table

Whist displaying impeccable, borderline saintly even, conduct in and out of the ring throughout even when facing extreme provocation and disrespect and being criminally underpaid for someone so accomplished and talented who has achieved everything they have the hard way often as the B side

And then after doing everything asked of you or anyone could ask of a fighter whilst treading a path so many of your fellow greats wouldn't even consider treading and achieving all there is to achieve you get crucified for taking a money fight, just one fight right at the end stage of your career and your first supposed 'soft touch' when you're 39 y/o, whereas, conversely, every other fellow ATG and legend no matter how high up they reside on the ATG list fought numerous or many soft touches in their primes, let alone when almost 40,

And your supposed 'soft touch' is against another giant who is way bigger than you, and who hasn't lost a fight in 11 years and is a fellow GOAT in their respective combat sport?

And many of the same people who are hammering the nails into your hands and feet worship at the altar of fighters who are filthy dirty serial cheats PED cheats, or risk averse deck-stackers who would never have taken the risks Usyk did or they did without having every advantage they could wangle in their favour to ensure said risk was minimized as much as possible or just fighters who never would've trodden the path Usyk did and whose conduct was far from impeccable

I'll say it again. What's the point of turning up early for work 10 mins early everyday, never being late or taking sickies, and winning Employee of the Month every year if the first time you take a sickie or are late your boss fires you when all his other employees take sickies and are late often or who have at least done so many times?

What's the point of doing everything the right, honourable and noble way if it's not going to be appreciated or completely forgotten the first time you falter of deviate from that path slightly?

 

Why are you wasting my time replying to my posts when your only contribution to this site is being a rabid hater troll? Literally your entire reason for being here. Your existence on here. Hence why no one takes you seriously

You're lucky I even lower myself to reply to you and that my security detail doesn't escort you off the premises

As said, he's at the end stage of his career after having cleaned out 2 divisions of their champions and highest rated contenders and fighting the best and taking touch touches B2B all throughout his prime. Mission successful. Objective completed. Undisputed x 3. Done it treading a path few would dare tread and a career of impeccable conduct. Only Usyk isn't allowed to take any 'soft touches' and money or fun fights even when almost 40 y/o. Not even if it's just a pitstop

There was no ducking. Fabio and J-Park are light work for even an old well past prime Usyk and both would get played with and battered into a bloody pulp

And why is your boy Agit petitioning for Usyk to come to Germany when Usyk is the champion, the King, the A-side and has old more tickets than him in his career than he could ever sell if he fought 12 times a year for the next decade? Sold out 65,000 stadiums. 60,000 tickets in 24 hours. Who the beep does he think he is? Bit like you and I. Kings and peasants

He was getting lit and busted up by an unheralded Pole last time out and I seem to remember a Croatian binman nearly sparking him out too

You've also never seen a fighter do it the way Usyk has done it re. all the aforementioned things in my previous posts. You forgot that part didn't you, Frau Bigshot?
