    1st fight with Fury was a very good fight and competitive so I think a rematch between the two was fine.

    The others I didn't really care to see.

    I'd like to see him vs Tyson (Usyk can have trouble with smaller guys) and Vitali (huge, massive work rate, iron chin).

    Usyk is one of the all-time greats. No question about that. He's proven everything.

    Parker is a lot smarter than Dubois, he has more trouble with physically imposing fighters (fat bakole aside)

    Usyk vs Kabayel or Parker are interesting fights, but the only thing that will beat Usyk is father time.

    Third Fury fight? Is this gonna be like Marquez. They are gonna fight until Tyson finally wins? Fight somebody who isn't British!

    He was too heavy but he went for power and luckily it didn't affect his speed too much. He got caught with some huge shots and it could've gone pear shaped for him if he wasn't God

    Horrible that names like Fury, let alone AJ and Chisora, are being thrown around by the interview guy. Glad that Usyk did what he wouldn't and at least mentioned Parker as a possible challenger, who's well overdue for his shot.

    I’m not sure, brother. I think Tyson had the style to beat Usyk. Usyk top 3 H2H heavyweight, though

    He's just too offensive minded. You can't bum rush Usyk.

    Wow this guy just impresses more and more everytime.

    Dubois is a destructive puncher but he couldn't lay a glove on him, completely bamboozled from the opening bell. Surprised dubois didn't seem to want to go to the body at all and like most he just couldn't let his hands go.

    Usyk has to be top 5 of all time and honestly who beats him I'm not sure anyone does, he's absolutely different level he's beating good fighters and making them look like amateurs.

    He looked even more impressive and powerfull with the extra weight on as well.

    As a side note shows how good a boxer fury is as well to take rounds from this guy.

    Don't love it when they interview the guy who just got knocked out.

    Now to hear Frank Warren's whining. Wonder what he'll break out.

    Usyk now top 3 heavyweight imo. I’d only put him beneath Ali and Holmes and he gives both the toughest fight of their careers.
