    Joshua just isn't that guy. Imagine what Fury's going to do to him. He'll glare at Joshua and Joshua's heart will disintegrate at the thought of having a 6'11, 340 pound giant coming for his jugular

    Love Usyk but the way he is getting over hyped is just ridiculous

    He will be top 15 p4p ever if he beats another today's high ranking HWs. Usyk is badass in my book.

    Agree 100%, Great fighter and a very likeable guy but all this fan-girl type hype he's been getting since the Joshua fight is ridiculous.

    Not enough evidence to put him top 3. If he beats AJ in the rematch and manages to clean out this division, including beating Fury, then maybe consider him top 10.

    Why you might call as fan girls only Usyk's fans?
    Why not to call as fan girls A.J, Wilder's and Fury fans? Due their origin?
    Usyk was absolutely and totally undisputed CW champ with 5 belts AND he had defeated this status in U.K with all his belts on line.
    More than this, he was true world level am superstar not just ONLY Olympic Gold medalist.

    While, yeah, I might agree that Bellew vs Usyk win might not be so impressive: Bellew had vacated his WBC World Cruiser Title when they had told that he should fight vs winner of Huck vs Briedis to defend his title he had won vs Makabu.
    And Bellew was really legit CW WBC champion.
