    Gonna have to completely disagree with this

    Usyk is for all intents and purposes a retired heavyweight as far as championship boxing goes. He acknowledges it which is why he vacated the belts to not hold the whole division up. Which was an honorable move.

    We dont have to wait until he officially retires .. At least I wont

    As far as the whole fight vs Kabayel being in Germany that was not to "stack the deck" in Kabayels favor but rather to make a big fight because Usyk isnt really big anywhere for the most part. No one is out to get Usyk

    Usyk has fought all over the world and in other opponents "backyard" before so I dont get why all of a sudden this would be a problem

    The reality is Usyk doesnt want to take a tough fight in his last fight (2 fights really) and is looking for 1 last cash out

    Hes allowed to do it, Im just not gonna act like hes still heavyweight champion

    That was such a ridiculous argument cause look at Haney vs Lomachenko

    There isnt this Ukraine bias from the judges

    Usyk said Joshua will be the future undisputed heavyweight champion.

    You should put some respect on Murat Gassiev’s name. He was a unified cruiserweight world champion, holding both the IBF and WBA titles, and he reached the final of the World Boxing Super Series after knocking out Yuniel Dorticos. You can criticize his performances, but talking about an accomplished former champion as if he were some nobody is simply ignorant and disrespectful.

    Kabayel was never a unified champion. He was crowned as champion by email.

    Shut up you moron

    If you want to play that game, you disrespected an Olympic medalist by calling him 600 years old

    He was a very good cruiserweight

    Not so much as a heavyweight

    Yup. That was just a very concussed Fury trying to cope with the fact that he'd just lost his first fight... something he'd deluded himself into believing would never happen. And to a "pumped up middleweight" of all people.

    He should have retired earlier thus avoiding the loss having accomplished far more at heavyweight than Usyk

    Plenty of fighters take bouts based on merit

    If money is such a problem how does Kabayel get fights. By your logic nobody should fight him due to money concerns
