    I can see why he would avoid usyk more of a stylistic thing

    He'd murder Usyk, it'd be like Hyde vs Bowe, the smaller man acquitting himself well, maybe even having the better of things, but ultimately succumbing to the weight advantage.

    Will such a matchup ever be in the offing? Feels like a very long way off, TBH.

    There is also the question of will Usyk even want to fight Fury after seeing what he did to Wilder and when he inevitably dismantles and retires AJ, Usyk might not want any part of a hiding from the Gypsy King.

    What's really there to unify if that happens? Realistically he would only be able to keep the WBA after the dust settles.

    IBF defence is overdue, WBO defence is overdue, WBC defence is overdue.
    All the belts would be split up again.

    Usyk wants that smoke with everyone born from their mother and unlike the vast majority of these have gloves won't travel sissy world champions, he wants said smoke in their backyards because he's the biggest badass since a circa '64-66 Clint. A larger set of plums you will not find in world boxing than The Usyk God's.
