    He'd have to cut off a leg to make 175 now, ridiculous. He was naturally 210-ish lbs as a mature man back in 2013.

    what? That doesn’t even make sense. A heavyweight moving down to light heavyweight?

    What stupidity is this?

    He'd be foolish to even attempt it. Going up and down in weight like that is not good for you, especially at his age.

    Heavyweight is unlimited. You get extra points for being heavyweight champ.

    No one is buying into this. I would quietly abandon the thread.

    He hasn't been a LHW since 2007 iirc. He had to cut weight to make CW and even amateur HW at 25-ish. He's not even close to LHW.

    HW is an unlimited weight class and no one has replicated what Usyk has done. The closest would be Holyfield, who was also a two weight champion. Mike Tyson was P4P No.1 and he wasn't even a two division champ.
