As I said I know your a soft person but if you ever pipe up I'll give you a good hiding. Because I know the cooo mark.
Usyk is very popular around here. I wonder if that due to his size? ie, if he can beat a modern big man so could " Interest the name of " who was also around 200 pounds decades ago. At least that's my theory as one of the reasons why he's popular in the classic section. In mid to late 1980's I think Tyson was too much for him. In the mid to late 1990's, I'll take Usyk on points
Usyk is harder to hit than anybody Tyson ever fought, Holy was hard to catch on the chin specifically with wide hooks but he was easier to hit with straight punches than Usyk is, Holy even admitted he had trouble dodging some of Foreman`s shots because they were straighter than Tyson`s, Mike didn`t catch Holy flush on the chin much at all.
Holyfield is unique as a smaller man who had the chin, grit and toughness to smother and hold Tyson inside. It would usually take a bigger heavier man to nullify Mike like that. Holyfield is a one off. Usyk doesn't fight inside, he boxes in and out at mid and long range. Mike would bypass the distance that Usyk is comfortable at, at rapid speed and force Usyk to either hold which he doesn't really do or punch with him which is suicide.
Need to see more of Usyk to say he could beat Iron Mike. Love his movement and skills, but you also need a certain amount of power to keep Tyson off of you and chin to take the punches that will get through. Usyk has yet to to demonstrate that as far as i know, but we'll see.
