If we put Usyk from the Verhoeven fight against these heavies, he would lose:

Tell it to Odlanier Solis, Jorge Luis Gonzalez, Miroschnichenko, and David Reid.

 

Timberrrrrr

 

You're saying this like Lewis couldn't hold the back of Usyk's head too.

 

Not exclusively that version, he is overrated and would always lose to those guys

 

Usyk at his very best gets knocked out by all those guys.

 

Why would he let him?

 

Good research, actually. Holyfield at 40 or 41 looked better than Usyk at 39 did the other night. And Rahman landed some of those right hand bombs on Holyfuield, just like the ones that starched Lewis.

So Holyfield (41 yrs) vs Usyk (39 yrs) is actually a good fantasy fight. We'd see some good thing from two HOFers.

But Usyk is taking a lot of stick.. his vocal fans made it so. Hey, that opponent was formidable. If Usyk can weather another grueling training camp, he'll knock out that pretender even sooner than he did last week.
