    Usyk is more like 6'2.

    Wlad is the worst style match up for usyk imo. Usyk is a certified atg and top 5 all time at heavy imo, but wlad is a really tough nut to Crack for him. Wlad is a professional and one of the best in fighting against smaller opponents, extremely experienced in fighting southpaws also awkward ones and he has imo the greatest jab in history + atg power in both hands and he always fights to his strengths and that means he is the expert in fighting in distance which suits him and he can grab and lean on you way better than everyone else.
    He is the worst style match up for usyk. Imo wlad koes or decisions usyk.
    Is usyk the better fighter, definitely, but styles make fights and wlad is all wrong for usyk
