    Usyk gets hit FAR more than Fury does and Wilder was able to drop Fury twice

    I could write another essay countering your points (of which I concede there are some which are reasonable IMO) but am about to call it a night here so instead I will offer this: that for all our disagreements one thing we can surely agree upon is that Usyk Vs Wilder promises to be a highly entertaining fight, perhaps even a modern classic. Let's hope it gets made and then if it does and if Deontay does put Usyk to sleep then I will be the first to dig up this thread and admit I was wrong -you have my word Aydamn.

    Joshua and Wilder he beats Fury
    No

    Edit . Actually I think Wilder would catch him so probably only Joshua

    I cant say.
    Him at HW is a huge unknown, he’ll either school all of them with no problems or get knocked out by AJ and Wilder.

    Why are people talking as if Usyk wont get robbed against Joshua or Wilder? Guys like Usyk have to work three times as hard just to get a fair shake on the cards.

    There's a reason those guys are staying put at CW, they get smashed by any top ten HW.

    aint Manuel Charr a top 10 heavyweight, Breidis just went up for fun and a laugh and destroyed Charr with ease like he was nothing

    Plus I'd bet anything Gassiev would destroy Breazeale and Parker for a start. He'd probably smash up Whyte too.

    I doubt Charr is even top 30 h2h to be honest. Breidis is a solid CW but he's gonna be seriously outgunned at HW. Gassiev went life and death with an old Lebedev, he'd get slaughtered by those dudes.

    Lebedev was unified WBA & IBF champ at that point and had been on a long unbeaten run ( you could say he was undefeated cause the Huck loss was controversial) There is no shame whatsoever in having a close fight with Lebedev.

    Lol at anybody who thinks wilder has the least chances. Wilder might be skillwise 3 levels below usyk, but he is the biggest puncher of the 3 and the only one with a massive lead hand right. Bellew did a good job on landing his right, if wilder will land it will be lights out.
    If usyk beats anybody of the 3 it is most likely aj as he is the worst and most robotic out of the 3 with bad stamina.

    Prime Lebedev great fighter, but he was well past his sell by date against Gassiev.

    Wow, you really are deluded.

    The commentary team even said he was a gonner and that the ref saved him.

    whats this, wilder is a bit of clown, he had issues with a 40 year man of zero pedigree and a bit of skill. 2Slyk outpoints him without trouble.

    Fury will be more difficult but 2Slyk can decision him too, AJ maybe.

    However, I wont say never never till he fights a few more top guys.


    also CW is HW so thats not an issue

    Bruv, did it take you all night to come up with that reply?
    Ref didn't save ****... Ortiz was hurting Wilder long before the bell went. Nobody was holding Wilders hand back to his corner.

    You are just upset that Wilder didn't hit the deck.

    I didn't know someone could be a gonner and while still standing upright and walking back to his team.

    Fight had to be paused for Fury and Ortiz who were actual gonners... thats the definition of hurt.

    You are in self-denial.
