What about Usyk at HW? Will he be an exception?
Holmes. A great HW, rated properly. One of the best skilled HWs of all time. One of the best footworks of all time. One of the best jabs of all...
LOL then Canelo's chin is HW-like, and even Jackobs' too.
I'd like him to fight Usyk after Usyk KO's Bellew. Would be interesting, though I pick Usyk.
I agree, Usyk is taller, has longer reach, and looks more athletic. If Usyk had Povetkin's % of bodyfat, he'd weight in 230s range.
One must remember than prime Tyson was WAY quicker than 39 y.o. Povetkin (or younger Povetkin too) or any current HW, that's a fact. Another...
Bad idea. AJ and Wlad are different boxers. AJ doesnt wrestle as well as Wlad did. He would be caught more times on the inside if he tried wrestling.
Any elite athlete of the recent times was/is on PEDs. Sorry but that's true
I think AJ is too, at least in terms of physical prime. He may improve his jab and footwork though.
Ref could've stopped it after the 1st KD and it would be fine
But then again, Usyk is too probably pre-prime having far less fights than AJ :) Don't get me wrong, I rank both highly p4p.
And, by the way, prime Povetkin ducked Wlad like a plague for 4+ years waiting for him to become older. Wlad definitely looked past his prime...
Joshua. He would stop him later, around 10 or 11th round. Joshua's chin is fine and his power is excellent. Once Povetkin tired, AJ finished him...
In another context though, Wlad was 41, and Pov 39, while Briedis and Gassiev in their primes
Okolie reminds me Henry Akinwande with far less boxing skills
