    My prediction:

    I'll wake up tomorrow to see BF24 spammed with "OMG Usyk would beat Joshua" threads ;)

    Briedis hits very hard to the body as well as upstairs and the only time I've seen Usyk hurt was from a body shot.

    I think even one of these left rips downstairs from him would make me wince a bit and my ribs are steel.

    Regardless of the outcome we can all agree that Joshua is going down.

    The loser can have Wilder.

    Radchenko ranks punching power of Klitschko, Usyk, Kudryashov, Briedis, Huck and others

    Ukrainian cruiserweight Sergiy Radchenko (5-0) who sparred with almost all top cruiserweights in the world and with former heavyweight king Wladimir Klitschko, compared punching power of all top fighters whom he sparred with.

    "Usyk hits the lightest among all top-guys I sparred with. He has incredible speed and skills, but as for power he definitely doesn't hit as hard as Huck or Glowacki. You just can't be lighting fast and hit hard at the same time in this division, although Mairis Briedis is an exception - he is fast, the second fastest guy I sparred behind Usyk, and hits very hard.

    Dmitry Kudryashov is the hardest puncher among cruiserweights whom I sparred with. He hits as hard as some of the heavyweights. Rahim Chakhkiev also hits very hard, although he telegraphs his punches too much. Wlodarczyk is also a very hard puncher.

    If I had to rank all top fighters (cruiserweights and heavyweights) whom I sparred with, I'd put Wladimir Klitschko at #1. Dmitry Kudryashov is #2, followed by Wlodarczyk and Chakhkiev. Then I'd put Huck, Glowacki and Briedis - all of them have about equal punching power. The last on this list would be Usyk" - said Sergiy Radchenko.

    That depends on what Parker does when he meets Joshua. If he pulls off the upset, we might never see Usyk vs Joshua.
