    If he moves up next year and beat AJ or Wilder. He could become fighter of the decade.
    Let’s hope he does.

    It was a one horse race basically. There was nobody else that came close to deserving it as much as Usyk.

    Next: Ring fighter of the year, Yahoo fighter of the year etc.

    Wilder posted a while that he intends to go down to cruiserweight and win the titles there, something no other heavyweight champ ever did. If that actually happens, Wilder vs Usyk at 200, that would be pretty cool. Wilder could easily make 200 without issues.

    No one can say this man didn’t deserve, to become undisputed on the road is a hell of an achievement.

    No argument from me. Very good pick. Skys the limit for this guy. Now if he can move up to the heavies, get a few wins and a belt next year, he could repeat as fighter of the year. Congrats!
