    The hilarious thing was that Joshua got battered by a guy much smaller than Usyk, just that he was carrying a lot more fat and water.

    Not the brightest bunch.

    Good point. Ruiz really took something out of him

    I agree 100%. He doesn’t seem to react to punches well.

    Yep this is true, the dominant big heavies of the past all used their size, not just by being taller and rangier but as you say leaning, pushing, framing, posting, collar tying etc. Wlad, Lewis, Holmes, Ali, Foreman, Liston all had these skills, it's one thing being big, but knowing how to properly use your size is key if you are to be able to overcome the discrepancy in speed against smaller heavies.

    Fury too has this ability and will only get better at it under Sugar Hill, using these techniques that Steward taught Lewis and then Wlad. I don't think Usyk will have it his way vs Fury who can use his size more effectively than the other big men in the division like AJ, Wilder and Joyce.

    Im not a fanboy but I had for my prediction a AJ UD. Joshua looked like absolute horse ****, Usyk has gained a fan.

    That's the fight I want to see now. No way it happens before 2023 or late 2022.
