I think because of covid usyk didn’t get a chance to fight to much at heavy like evander Holyfield did !!! Fighting a horrible Chazz Witherspoon and shopworn dereck chisora isn’t gonna get usyk ready for Anthony Joshua ( in my opinion ) Antony Joshua stops usyk before rd 7 begins !!!!
Usyk looked like a million bucks against Chisora when compared to the performances of Whyte and Parker. The only thing he didn't do was get the KO. But Chisora is borderline impossible to KO, unless you have truly devastating power and even then it isn't easy. Also, Chisora, an aggressive swarmer, is the worst possible style for Usyk. AJ is not. AJ will be forced to be the aggressor which he isn't comfortable with, he's also not comfortable setting a blistering pace, due to the fact that he knows he'll gas and leave himself vulnerable. Usyk isn't easy to hit clean especially by lead-footed one two and uppercut artists. He's a fleet footed, defensively sound southpaw counter puncher, who's constantly moving. He's going to play it safe, not engage for the first few rounds, just flick out the jab. Then AJ will try to amp up the pressure, with little success, then Usyk will slowly step on the gas starting around round 5 or 6, start walking AJ onto some nasty straight lefts to the body and counter right hooks coming from awkward angles as he's pivoting away, most likely landing to AJ's temples along with persistent flush jabs to the jaw. Then AJ will start getting desperate, swinging and missing a lot in the 7th or 8th, then Usyk will reverse gears, slam on the gas and start moving forward, and aggressively but intelligently walk him down, peppering him with jabs, lunging straight lefts on the button and one twos, while doing those moves like Loma in and out of the side door, and maybe even occasionally in through the backdoor, creating plenty of angles which would give him plenty of openings to nail the big ox repeatedly in his glass temples. Eventually he'll get rocked, and Usyk with his blistering hand speed will unload, when AJ starts doing the clinched ass cheeks stiff legged "Aw Damn.... I Just **** My Pants" Shuffle, Usyk then brutally drops him, Bellew style, he'll somehow make it back up, even more gassed... at that point, frail AJ will be left a sitting duck and will only be able to take so much punishment, the ref will have finally seen enough, waves it... Usyk wins by TKO9.
If wild swinging old chisora is able to catch usyk then AJ definitely will. I’ve got usyk starting well and then AJ sticking to the game plan getting a boring ud possibly dropping usyk along the way mid rounds
I love Usyk and would love to see him win, but he probably loses by decision. Usyk lacks the power to keep AJ respectful. Usyk's best chance to win is being awkward lkke he is normally with tons of volume. He has to out-busy him, and if he gets AJ defensive from all the incoming, then he has something. If he boxes with AJ he goes home early.
Nistor has a similar style to Chisora. He was landing aplenty. Like I said, stylistic issue. This content is protected Joyce and Gassiev fight far more like AJ. Barely touch him. This content is protected This content is protected
It is AJ, and he can punch, so anything is possible. But I have a feeling skills will pay the bills here. As far as I go.... not really. I've had two pretty maddening busy stressful weeks, nothing awful.. but just annoying, thankfully things are starting to calm down now though.
