    Sharkey at his best was a pretty slick fighter

    Have you ever seen Sharkey.. he was a brilliant fighter.. more skilled than the likes of Dubois & Gassiev that's for sure.. I'd favour Usyk but to say he has virtually no chance is BS.. go to 1:05 & 1:42 .. what fighter has Usyk faced with movement & a hook like that.. i can't find any.. Sharkey blew hot & cold & wasn't consistent enough but at his best he would be the most skillful fighter Usyk has faced:

    On his best night ... and I've said before here that Sharkey was pretty much a manic depressive fighter so you didn't know what you were going to get on a given night ... he would give Usyk or anyone else a tussle, but I think Usyk takes it.
