How well does Usyk do in these Heavyweight Eras: 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s

I could see him losing too

Ali,
Foreman
Holmes
Frazier
Tyson
Lewis
Holyfield
And the Ibeabuchi that fought Tua and Byrd
I could even see Tua winning.



I’m not saying Usyk is not a great fighter because he is, I based it on styles

 

Lol there should be a part of this forum called legit boxing fans then a part call casual boxing forum so Usyk fanboys can go there.

Like I said this dude is 38 years old. Has had 5 heavyweight bouts. Never beat a legit heavyweight worth mentioning but now his biased fanboys act like this guy is some kind of monster.

But you will say he beat Joshua. You people need to make up your minds. Stop flip flopping. When it benefits you, you will admit that Joshua was always a hype job. A slow robotic body builder. But now that Usyk beat him you will flip that script.

Joshua is a hype job, Joshua is robotic. Joshua did get knocked out by fat boy Andy Ruiz. Wouldn't that mean Ruiz is better than Usyk?

Wow Usyk beat Fury, the 35 year old fighting living off beating a 40 year old Wlad 8 years ago and didn't look impressive doing it. I can't imagine any 200 plus pound top heavyweight from the 1970's to the early 2000's not being able to knock out a 40 year old Wlad.

So Usyk beat 2 hype jobs and some how that makes him great? Let me repeat. I thougth Mike Tyson fanboys were bad, I thought Floyd Mayweather fanboys were bad, I thought Tyson Fury fanboys were bad. The only fanboys who are as bad as Usyk fanboys are Rocky Marciano fanboys.

Usyk isn't a top heavyweight. Even in this horrible era he isn't the top guy. Having belts doesn't make you a top guy. Charles Martin, Bermaine Stiverne had belts in this joke era for crying out loud. Usyk rarely gets in the ring. He fights once per year and only had 5/6 fights at heavyweight.

This is the same Usyk that ran from most of the cruiser weights he faced. Yet bullied Fury around the ring. This shows you how bad Fury is. You Usyk would bully George Foreman, Lennox Lewis, Riiddick Bowe, Mike Tyson, David Tua, Ike Ibeabuchi, Tommy Morrison or any legit puncher from back then around the ring?

You think getting in the ring and only landing 150 punches or less and landing 30 percent of your punches would work against Ali or Larry Holmes?

 

He'd sweep the 80s. Also probably 90s which was full of duckers and old men and glass cannons holding belts.

 

He'd be competitive in any era. Same size as Ali. He'd win some and lose some.

 

Fury would have toyed with Morrison and knocked him out, who`s the top heavyweight right now?

 

Think he could do very well in one off fights, but I doubt his body could handle the activity levels of some of the previous eras.

 

He could compete with all of them. I doubt he wins every bout, there are some match-ups that are better for him than others. I think a prime Mike Tyson is the worst possible match-up for him. I think he beats most of the boxers on that list, like Holmes and Norton. I think he beats any version of Ali in his 30s, if he had to face an early 20s Ali, that is a difficult match-up for him as well.

 

Never out of the top 3.

 

Very well...............I could see him as a champion...........there are also a number of guys I could see him losing to. He not getting out with an "0" though.

 

Always extremely good, especially since he is a lefty and arguably has a good understanding of inside game with potential for further emphasis. Some man through history just transcend their circumstances and era. Usyk would likely bash anybody for saying that, but in the boxing jargon he is a deity of war. A humble, laughing, utterly devoted paragon.

 

Usyk would beat any of these boxers of those eras. Would Joe Frazier beat Derek Chisora? Would a Joe Louis beat a Dave Allen? Time moves on.

 

Based on styles huh? So what is it about Tua and Ibeabuchi’s styles that would mesh so well against Usyk???

 

The Goat chews them all up.

 

not sure about ibeabuchi as i rate him highly (usyk would most likely beat him though, heavy favourite) but Tua is especially odd as he was a plodder and he would have got his head boxed off
