    Joshua will catch him at some point. Usyk will find it much harder to control the distance against massive fighters like AJ

    Usyk all day every day.

    Too fast, too smart and just too superior of a fighter and athlete. Did you see how many punches the man throws? This is unprecedented. The last man to throw so many punches round after round, non stop punishment without taking any time off, was Vitali Klitschko

    He'd take that roided up ducking cowardly mess back to private school to learn some respect.

    Joshua will 'catch him' and Usyk will just take it. Why do everyone assume Joshua is this monster power puncher when he isn't. Has 0 concussive knockouts in his entire pro career, especially against opponents at the caliber of Usyk.

    Joshua caught Parker multiple times, and Takam. Nothing happened. Other than Joshua getting a gift stoppage in the latter, and a personal referee who helped him in the former.

    Usyk is on another level! Probably beats any heavyweight today.

    Usyk would make him look stupid!

    And he'd stop him! Joshua doesn't possess Gassievs chin.

    Yeah just like everyone said Gassiev would catch him, well he did, and he was fine, and then proceeded to box his ears off the rest of the fight.

    You mean how he blew Takam and Parker away in 5 rounds? Usyk > Takam and Parker combined skill wise.

    Joshua doesn't have that much power!

    People have to understand that size does make a difference, if Joshua did that punch that Gassiev landed on him at the end of round 3 or 4 i can't remember he would have gotten knocked out.

    I said it before this match, and after the match, nothing has change.


    So I'll say again.... only slightly adjusted.

    Usyk Is Next Level, Usyk Is P4P, Usyk Will Be HW Champion, Usyk Is The Future.:deal:

    And yes, Usyk schools Joshua.:deal:

    Usyks boxing style is a perfect version of what Parker tried vs Joshua. And we all saw that Joshua wasn't able to catch Parker once, Parker wasn't hurt at all and a KO or even a KD wasn't in sight.

    But Joshua of course is using his jab better and more often than Gassiev so it would be a close fight.

    Joshua is a giant. He would have 40 pounds, a few inches in height and a much longer reach. Usyk comes in as a live underdog, but he dont have a Holyfield chin
