Did Usyk actually dominate the greatest talent pool in heavyweight history. He beat everyone

    Lol. Made my day. I don't see Liston as some kind of monster but Hrgovic? Sonny cuts him up and wins by tko.

    I would see Usyk as an insurmountable obstacle in any era, and those who think differently, which is the majority, will not change my opinion...

    I don't see anything controversial in Markus's posts, he's an exceptional forum member and I enjoy reading what he writes...

    He is great but he dominated a very weak era.

    It is only a "weak" era if you do not stand today's SHWs side by side with the old "legends"

    As soon as you stand them together, you suddenly see that today's lot are mobile, athletic GIANTS

    who will utterly destroy every past era.

    Usyk only competes today through relentless activity, pressure and brilliant IQ - far beyond anything we saw in the 1970s

    He is the exception that proves the rule

    Even Today's Chisora - because of his massive size

    If you take him back to the 1960s

    Would be a giant wrecking ball

    Taking everyone OUT

    He didn't dominate the division. He won SD's vs the top 2 opponents and did not even dominate Chisora. How can he an ATG HW when he is not a dominate HW in a mediocre era?

    Usyk is not a dominant HW.

    Those decisions were clear cut, anyone saying otherwise are lying to themselves. He also cleared the most of the heavyweight division and is still dominating at 38 like he did against Dubois and has yet to take a loss. This could be the h2h goat we're looking at.

    I was around in the Ali era

    But I regard Usyk as a cut above

    He beat 3 of the top 10 and 6 of the top 25 HWs of his era.

    Now in his era thats pretty good because no one fights each other. But historically compared to fighters who were the best in their eras? Terrible.
