Mike Tyson vs Usyk

Sure but I am just saying Uysk does have pop in his punches at heavyweight even though he isn't a massive puncher.

 

Very true. And there's probably no one in the history of the sport better at managing a fight over 12 rounds and winning a decision than Oleksandr Usyk. This man has gone into enemy territory his whole career against A-side competition and came out on top on the cards every time. It's honestly quite insane when you think about it.

 

He deserves huge credit.

But he’s simply never seen anyone like Mike before, with Mike’s unique attributes.

It’s a simple matter of styles.

Breidis couldn’t beat AJ, Fury or Dubois, yet Usyk beat them all easy, yet struggled with Breidis at CW.

That’s the beauty of the sport isn’t it.

He struggled with a CW, but then easily beat SHW’s.

Styles.

 

However good at 'managing' a fight Usyk is, if he takes one of peak Tyson's clean ones, I think there's a good chance, it's at least, the start of the end.

 

Young peak Tyson would give anyone a hard nights work,one lands it's over.

 

There's a lot of people claiming Tyson would easily put a dent in Usyk, despite Usyk never appearing to be in trouble during fights.

We know that Mike Tyson did have weaknesses, one of those was a mental weakness which I think gives him huge problems against a fighter like Usyk. What happens when Usyk proves to have the superior skills?

 

I don't think Usyk would be able to keep Tyson off him. If you can't hurt Tyson you can't beat him. Tyson by KO.

 

This is what Usyk would do to Mike:

Nothing to do with skills.

 

Usyk by late stoppage

 

I give it 55-45 Tyson.

It wouldn't be an easy fight for either.

 

Pretty sure Usyk wins on points. He's just too good at feeding off of other fighter's aggression, and he has a good deal of length on Tyson.

 

Usyk hasn’t got the power. There’s CW’s he didn’t stop.

 

Length is no good, if you haven’t got the time and space for it to be an advantage.

They wouldn’t have boxed each other in a chess match.

Usyk has nothing to have kept Mike off of him.

 

Tyson would be plodding after him trying to set his feet and Usyk would have cuffed him silly.
