    This pole has the heart of a lion, theres no quit in him. He is pretty fast and packs a decent wallop, yes he can be wild in the punch but uysk would pick him to pieces if he was a straight upright type of fighter. he has a decent sway back, and his left hand that follows naturally, usyk likes putting a few together, which i can see being countered with something massive. and when usyk is using angles, and pristine footwork trying to punch from left and right, glowacki has big left hand body blow to slow him up.

    This is going to be a tough fight for usyk. Id make lebedev favourite over olexasndr as he is alot more refined. usyk taking on a top 5 crusierweight in his 10th pro fight is not to be looked at lightly, The cruiserweight division packs big men throwing big leather.

    The cruisers are stacked at the moment so many good fighters and fights.

    This is a tough ask for Usyk, Glowacki looked good against Huck and Cunningham.

    Personally think the cream will rise and see Usyk on points in a good fight, if he gets the stoppage it'll be very impressive.

    Glowacki is the real deal, but Usyk might be great. It remains to be seen.
    Man, Cruiser is so ****inen stacked right now, but because we have a 100 belts, the very best fights are not made.

    Usyk has all the talent in the world but Glowacki is legit and this is an absolutely huge step up in class from the level of opposition Usyk has been feasting on in the pros. Glowacki has good skills, can bang, is tough and durable, and he's a good counter puncher. He's also has a huge heart and he's proven he can come through serious adversity.

    Glowacki also said he wasn't at his best in his last two fights due to him carrying injuries and suffering from illness and he appears to be telling the truth about that so Usyk might be facing an even more formidable version of him than both Huck and Cunningham fought. And obviously Glowacki will be taking the invaluable experience he gained against both of them into this fight too. And to top it off the fight is in Glowacki's homeland Poland as well.

    Glowacki only weighed 202lbs against Cunningham - just 2lbs over the CW limit. I'm not sure how heavy Usyk comes in on fight night but he looks pretty big to me so I'm guessing he will have a weight advantage, if Glowacki comes in that light again that is. I think Usyk will pull it off but it'll be highly impressive if he handles Glowacki with ease or even with relative ease. It'll be impressive result if he just beats him given how good Glowacki is.

    this is a much closer fight that some of the posters here think, Glowacki is no pushover and Usyk will have to very clearly beat him to get a decision in Glowacki's homeland

    Serge is not the only one who is impressed with Glowacki nearly as much as Usyk.

    That said, there really will be no losers in this fight no matter the result.

    Both have very bright futures in the stacked ranks of the CW division.:good

    Yes, he does.

    Usyk is such a special talent for anyone with eyes that can see.

    He will blow through Glowacki.

    One of my favourite fighters to watch, lots of finesse about that man.

    Why do you like usky but not lomachenko? Usyk is basically a giant lomachenko, they have the exact same style. Its rare to see a big man move like that though which is cool.
