Rico Verhoeven vs Muhammad Ali

You have to lie to suit your narrative haha Usyk has not retired lad and you know it.

 

Keep lying to yourself to suit your narrative lad

 

When Usyk threw punches Rico bent his head straight down, like looking at the mat. Rico also led with his chin, but Usyk uppercuts lacked steam (I'm so glad Usyk finally CLIPPED him with an uppercut). Ali didn't go to the body much, it's true, but he had a quasi-uppercut just made for that interloper. Uppercut city.

 

Ali would beat Rico but Rico is a far superior athlete to McCline.

I doubt any version of McCline would do anything to Usyk.

 

Stop lying to yourself Rico is garbage and would get smoked by Opetaia

 

McCline is actually very underrated.

 

English please.

 

Let me makes this easier for you to understand. Benavidez would beat the **** out of Rico in the boxing ring, Rico isn't a puncher in any way and he has no head movement. Usyk made him look better than he really was

Anyone over 200 pounds in the top 20 would outbox Rico comfortably. Even obscure guys like Pat Brown would outclass Rico

 

Come on. Ali was more than just off balance there. I think Ricos, size, athleticism and awkward style would cause him problems yes. and he has the power to hurt him too. Norton was not a big puncher by any means. All of his stoppages were against tomato cans and a few over the hill fighters like Quarry.

 

Your post made no sense. Rico has you guys salty. Anyone who looks at Ali as a great fighter but not a demigod can see how Rico could cause him real issues in the ring. Get over it. It's not an absurd statement to make and it has logic behind it. Rico isn't some random schmuck. He's arguably the GOAT in a purely standup sport and he gave the unified HW champion of the world absolute hell.

 

There's no talking sense to a hero worshiping cult prone to hyperbole.

 

Ricos head would be target practice for the basic jab and straight right and Ali is much more likely to follow up with combinations. Usyk was confused by the jittering, and when Rico tries to back off and readjust Ali would outbox Rico and tie him up most times when he gets too close or shell up from time to time. He has no head movement, could not handle usyk when usyk was moving in spots and only had significant success when Usyk was stationary

Your boy Usyk is shot, thats why he ducked Kabayel when he became mandatory after Rico and is targeting other shot fighters.
