Is Mr.Andre Ward the only man with a chance to stop Usyk? Ward will probably return as a CW

    Gassiev is the CW version of Kovalev....With regards to their hype of being 'monsters'.

    Usyk toyed with a CW monster....
    Ward, at best, beat his LHW monster by 1 round.

    Levels my friend, levels.

    Yes, people forget that LHW to cruiser is a full 25 lb or 1/7 of a LHW's body mass. That's huge. It's roughly equivalent to moving from superwelterweight to LHW.

    Ward fan here but no, Ward could barely handle Kovalev and Usyk is another level in terms of skill. Usyk is also one of the few fighters that has better footwork than Ward which is one of Ward's strengths. That along with the size difference Ward doesn't want any part of Usyk.

    It is obvious that Ward likes a challenge but this might be too much for his game.

    However you'd be not so smart to bet against this wily vet now, he might find a way to outsmart this green yet elite CW. Ward has a complete arsenal of skills, whilst the Witcher is still learning.

    I think of MVC as the forum mascot. A bit slow but every now and then he does something funny like tripping over his shoelaces and we all get to laugh. How can you loathe him? Look! Now he's playing with the lighter fluid. Lulz.

    gassiev was nothing like kovalev. Krusher was THE MAN, as is 2Slyk now.

    I don't know Ajax, Gassiev hits pretty damn hard plus is a true CW and Usyk took his best and made it look easy.

    Ward could become an ATG commentator. HOF lock yes, ATG no.

    Does demanding fights on home soil count as a challenge? What about going to court multiple times and losing to Dan Goossen (RIP)?
