    Alexander usyk warns Anthony Joshua For an upcoming clash with the unified heavyweight champion stay tuned. I feel Usyk will have a great chance v AJ, will AJ vacate the WBO rather than face Usyk?

    Usyk hasn't yet proven he deserves a shot at a HW belt. Let's see a few more decisive wins against tough HWs.

    I disagree. He's a champ from the division below. Not uncommon for champs moving up to get fast tracked to a title shot. Happens all the time.

    He cleaned out the CW division in style. I believe he is deserving of a shot in his next fight.

    He has nothing to prove, especially in this HW division era.

    Love usyk but he has nothing for AJ. Yeah ruiz was small too but hits very hard and has lightning fast hands.

    Thing is, he’s short but a super heavy in weight, he can absorb more than anyone at heavy, him or Parker are the most durable for me

    Usyk is very hard to catch clean, I didn`t see Chisora land much in the 1st v Usyk, Chis was being controlled from the start, Usyk would block most of AJ`s shots.

    Being cruiserweight champ doesn't qualify you as anything at heavyweight, he should have to prove himself.

    If you've done nothing at heavyweight, you have everything to prove. He'll face a lot more heavy hitters and pressure fighters.

    Chisora made him look very uncomfortable, it's just Chisora lacks quality to go along with his power. Imagine if Chisora was actually a great boxer? He could have easily destroyed Usyk early on.

    Champs from lower divisions move up and fight higher division champs all the time. No big deal. Finicky boxing fans. Just a few years back, when Ward moved to light heavyweight, fans were upset that he didn't fight Kovalev right away. He was criticized for taking a few fights first. I say, if a champ moves up and wants to fight the champ, it's acceptable.
