    This would be an intriguing match-up. Who would you put your money on in this one?

    Usyk and I doubt it'd be close.

    Parker beat a thirty eight year old man who had been through multiple horrific beatings. Let's hold off on the second coming of Joesph Parker for now.

    Usyk by any way he wants to. Completely different stratosphere to Wilder.

    Parker and Usyk both have a common opponent in Dereck Chisora. Parker performed far better against Del Boy in their second encounter than Usyk did when he fought Del.

    And Usyk beat Joshua twice, the same man who beat Parker.

    Parker is also a better fighter now and is arguably entering his prime. Usyk on the other hand isn't getting any younger and looked somewhat diminished during his battle against the young and inexperienced Dubois.

    I honestly think the best Parker could do is lose a relatively close but clear decision.

    Wilder never beaten a proven legit world level fighter and thats what Parker is. Wilder wasn't shot, it was the same Wilder as always.

    Usyk is the best of this generation and it will be a wide points decision for Usyk.

    Diminished?

    He was leading on all three scorecards and had outlanded Dubois 88 punches to 47. Usyk landed twice the shots and won when he forced Dubois to quit.

    Joyce had to break Dubois face to accomplish that.

    Usyk by UD.
    Compare to Oleksander Parker is much slower dude special in footwork.
    He is level below Joshua in soo many aspect that Im pretty sure Usyk can handle him quiet good .

    But that not shame. Usyk win probably with 100% hw boxers today. We will see if Fury can change that statistic.

    he had clearly diminished and most anticipated he would have. give parker his credit but wilder has never looked that lethargic, unconfident and generally unthreatening ever

    That's not true.
    https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.**...is-ortiz-rematch-compubox-punch-stats--144538

    Wilder got fight like that in past. Difference is just Ortiz was slower on feet, got bad reflex and his chin is overrated and Deontay trick work on him.

    Parker was first top 10 opponents of Wilder since Ortiz if You dont count Fury loss.
    And bad for him he was Young and got ability to do what he do.

    If Usyk doesn't suddenly show age we could win but........
    And if he loses to Fury first.............that's a powerful gypsy curse.
