    (Assuming neutral officiating and location)

    2015 Fury: 4/1 underdog against Wlad, 24-0, trainer P. Fury, lost to Usyk twice in 2024

    2017 Joshua: 1/2 favourite against Wlad, 18-0, never been past the 7th round, lost to Usyk in 2021 and 2022

    Briedis 2: 4/1 underdog against Usyk, had home advantage in Latvia, didn't follow Usyk up to heavyweight, less competitive in his only career rematch vs Opetaia

    Big Pricey would punch holes right through the side of little prime USKY. Styles make fights.
