I think its either Rico, Fury,, Wilder, Opetaia or Ajagba Ajagba sounds weird but if he signs with Zuffa for a final match, Ajagba is a believable Zuffa signed contender
That fight isn't about legacy, it's a big payday for both, it would still be a huge event in the uk even now.
I am actually not. If he is a dangerous puncher, as has beens stated, then Usyk would get some credit for taking him on.
Really not. If he is a dangerous puncher who could knock Usyk out, then Usyk would deserve credit for fighting him.
Usyk will likely fight Wilder I understand why While Wilder is clearly past it, Usyk would look at that as a personal achievement The big 3 was Joshua, Fury and Wilder (No matter how much this forum hates Wilder) and Usyk wants to say he beat everyone of note in his era Its like Lennox Lewis beating Mike Tyson in 2002 minus the money part Mike Tyson to Lennox Lewis was still a big deal I get it
You're conflating a punchers chance with being dangerous. While it would be an interesting fight, let's not pretend Wilder is anywhere near his former self.
No, I am citing what was said. Like a Boss seems to think that there is a chance that Wilder knocks him out. If that is the case, then Usyk should get credit for taking him over a softer opponent who would have no chance whatsoever of knocking him out. You can't have it both ways by citing a "puncher's chance." Also, Like A boss tried to walk it back after calling Wilder a "puncher," and say that anybody has a chance of getting a knockout.
If 'Rico' Usyk is representative and indicative of where he is now; I don't think it is, but think there are enough red flags to suggest it might be a long road back to sharpness and fitness, he really should retire or take big money 'celeb' fights. I think there is a chance someone like Wilder chins him, even now. Rico caught him clean several times but despite his suze and condition, he isnt a puncher, and certainly not the puncher Wilder is. I don't think Usyk has the power to use a similar get out of jail free card against Wilder if things are going badly...the talk of Wilder being shinny is for the birds, it really is. I'll give Usyk huge credit if he fights Wilder at this stage.
His quote: "You are always one punch from disaster fighting a puncher." It's you who's trying to shoehorn "dangerous" in there. Usyk shouldn't get much credit for knocking out an older and lighter Wilder, because it's essentially an exhibition match. Is there a chance Wilder lands a hail mary? Sure, but it's minute at best.
