Maybe I missed it I felt like he used master footwork and distance to piece Nery up after that instead of sitting in the pocket where he got clipped trading hooks.
Facts, I feel like the closest to a perfect fighter with no holes for current fighters is Usyk, Usyk just lacks power.
all fighters have holes. aj was suppose to be the one able to exploit usyks deficiencies, turned out aj's deficiency was lack of dog in him. the closest to inoue, on a p4p level right now, is probably bam and crawford. but yeah, at heavy, usyk is by far p4p the best.
Usyk is not as physically gifted as Inoue but he has less flaws in terms of skills. Usyk isn’t doing 50/50 trades with his hands down against a Nery.
Part of this is because half his focus is on entertaining. Guys like Usyk, Mayweather are just thinking 'win.' Inoue started against Nery a little arrogant which played a part in the knockdown.
usyk is too mobile for the oafs at hw right now. but he would have a hard time with a guy like torrez, who is quick enough and strong enough to push his power onto usyk. he would not be afraid to rush in throwing bombs, and i dont think usyk has the power to 1 shot stop him, so hes gonna take some hammers.
I will have to see future fights against huge punches before I can really make a final verdict. But today wasn’t that great a showing, he was badly hurt
Ridiculous lol, he took like 9 seconds to get him . I would bet anything had he stood up like Zab vs Kostya, he falls again . Look at his face as he was on the canvas
Many aficionados would agree with me. Jones said it best , legs just don’t lie . I know someone who saw it live and they said the same thing. Huge Inoue fan too.
