    Andy has way less power than Chisora, his 62% KO ratio is insanely low for a heavyweight. I don't think Usyk would respect Andy's power like he did Chisora's last night. Usyk's work rate would be too much for Ruiz, especially if he comes in as heavy as he did in the AJ rematch.

    I see Uysk frustrating the **** out of Ruiz, who gasses in the later rounds and gets picked apart from a distance. Lol if you think he sits there and trades with Andy on the inside like AJ did

    AJ takes it. AJ is a lot tougher than Chisora.

    Joshua has to be the strong favourite. Usyk isn't going to ko him, so he would have to go 12 rounds without being caught by a big shot. I think he is giving too much size away to not be caught at some point.
    Chisora isn't a big heavyweight, he doesn't have a big reach advantage, he isn't a big puncher at this level. There are several levels between him and Joshua/Fury, and Usyk just doesn't have the punch power or size to beat them in my opinion.

    This is the epitome of a bitter, rabid fanboyism. Anthony Joshua isn't paying you any valuable commission, so I don't know why your worship extends the length of his anus.

    It ultimately comes down to the fact that in boxing there is more than one way to win a fight and the only thing many fans are latching on to is "he has no power". There is no doubt who won the fight and that is all that matters. Styles make fights, and there is no guarantee that Oleksandr Usyk would take the same course of action against a different opponent.

    Oleksandr Usyk's style is something that will be difficult for any heavyweight to prepare for. People talk about Michael Hunter as if he is the next big threat, mainly because of his movement. Oleksandr Usyk takes it to a completely new level. There is no guarantee that he will beat X, Y and Z, but he is a viable contender who will be competitive at a minimum and anyone who says otherwise has an agenda.

    He has a higher KO ratio than Chisora and the same as Whyte.

    Usyk out-boxed Hunter at cruiser no reason he can`t do the same at heavy, he is the next mandatory for AJ`s WBO crown and is much more of a danger to AJ than Hunter is.

    I agree except that Ruiz has more one punch power than Usyk.

    Andy has faster hands than Chisora and a tighter guard.

    AJ isn`t tougher than Chisora, he has more power and more skill, AJ is slightly fragile, Chisora is more robust, AJ said he struggled to keep Chisora off him in sparring because he was so strong and just kept coming.
