Witherspoon was harder to hit than AJ and far more skilled than Chisora and the other bum Usyk fought at his debut at heavyweight.
He was also smaller than either. Limited boxer with an iffy chin. Good in his way, but with obvious flaws.
Yeah that's true, but that's prove what exactly? Usyk didn't find much problem with anyone's size, height and reach. So they will be similar size, same height prolly, and Usyk will just give reach. You think that will win the fight for Holmes? And we are talking prime for prime, right? As if we are taking this Usyk at 37,5 years old, we should do the same for Holmes, and you know how that will plays out surely. Holmes lost against Spinks when he was 35 twice. And at 37 Tyson knocks him out. Usyk at 37.5 becomes Undisputed against 2 years younger opponent, who had all the advantages over him, including judges, the refs, and the organizer of the fight. Do i need to say more?
He took Bruno`s best shots, he had a better chin than AJ, no way could AJ have taken Bonecrusher`s and neither could Chisora have.
The interesting thing would be that Usk who is normally used to having a huge speed advantage wouldn't have a speed advantage in this fight. I wonder if Larry Holmes never facing a southpaw is so significant. Tough fight to call. Could see a draw. I'm leaning Usyk
