In 5 years people will accept Usyk as the GOAT heavyweight

Never, not top 10

 

He's uber-elite, at cruiser, heavy, or PfP. No one can deny it.

 

How can you not have him In top 10 when he Is undisputed, gone through turmoil In his home country, become undisputed and beaten 2 of the best HWs In the last 10 years twice?

 

Fighting bums in a weak era means little, unless he loses little to no rounds

He's a borderline great fighter, beating good fighters with size advantage

Not a true great in my eyes. He actually went down in my estimation, thought he would stop Fury in 8

 

You can bump it in 2050 when we're all grandpa's for all I care Usyk is not the Heavyweight GOAT it's as simple as that for anyone with an ounce of knowledge on the history of the sport.

We can give the man his due without being ridiculous with the hype because of recent bias.

 

He's terrific. And I rate him extremely highly. But more as an overall, elite great fighter (CW, P4P). He deserves huge props for what he's achieved at HW. But he doesn't have the longevity and depth of resume at the weight to be top 5, IMO. Probably not top 10 - and I do like him a lot.

 

Usyk is a true ATG but let’s be real he’s had what ten fights at Heavyweight how can that be superior to Ali with 60 fights against prime killers like Liston, Foreman, Frazier, Norton and Holmes

Compare this line up to AJ, Fury, Dubois and erm Chisora

 

He's arguably already the GOAT he just beat a fellow future hall of famer for the second time who outweighed him by 50 pounds,

Incredible fighter.

 

He'll go down as the best of his era. That will suffice.

 

I will be shocked.

If you think people not from this era are going to have a 7-0 guy with 5 close wins as the HW GOAT you're delusional. He hasn't even fought a non British contender.

 

You don't like Usyk much do you.

 

I like him a lot, great guy, seems pretty nice
