    Exactamundo.


    Nullify.

    that's what would happen here. And early. And Frank would be forced to go to backup plan B C or D. Wai a minute--Bruno didn't have a backup plan. Especially for a smart southpaw like this.

    I also think Usyk uses his under rated mobility and footwork and makes Bruno look like he has 2 left feet when he tries chasing his guy down and attempts to hit a moving target.

    Bruno has a good shot, but I'll say 60/40 in favor of Usyk with his overarching speed IQ and skill advantage

    Usyk by decision, Bruno might look pretty clumsy here. Not really a peer to peer comparison.

    I think Usyk has the skill, southpaw advantage, accuracy and fitness to evade Bruno’s power early on, and stops him in 8 rounds, too fast and too accurate when Frank runs out of steam.

    Usyk something similar as against Joshua, maybe even easier...
