    Western promoters only sign so many fighters from that part of the world and most ignore them completely like GBP. Opportunities are limited for them and most of the money goes to Americans Mexicans and Brits.

    hopefully this changes with promoters like Ryabinsky's WOB.

    Perhaps Huck light a fire under Uysk's arse and he will start quicker and be more aggressive.

    I hope he doesn't try and brawl with Huck like he did with Mchunu and Hunter, he needs to box off the back foot and use his footwork and movement ie. what he's so good at. He spoke about his tactics in those fights in that Loma/Usyk documentary

    9:00 to 11:21 & 21:32

    I hope Usyk has his Kurgan hairstyle. That is so badass.

    Huck doesn't mess around, this fight is going to be a barnburner.

    After the press conference, a furious Usyk hurried out of the building saying: “I will bury him on Saturday.”

    It will be an exciting fight. I have no doubts. Bookies have Usyk as a huuuuuuge favorite. It is true that Huck is worn out but he fights at home and the crowd would scream at every punch he throws. I just expected rates bigger than 1.02 or 1.04 for Usyk.

    Wins his world title off an undefeated Glowacki in Poland

    Awkward and slippery as hell Mchunu for his first defence (a voluntary defence) who no one looks good against

    An undefeated Hunter in the US for his second defence

    Huck in Germany for his third

    Usyk beat a guy to win that tournament ( Joyce of 2013 with no actual boxing long term experience then) and a raw junior Fa who still looks poor today. these are the guys YOU think are going to make him a HW woprld beater?? HAHAHA

    Usyks weakness is OBVIOUS power punching and going head first into jabs and throws careless flurries when he gets flustered or aggressive and misses many shots compared to his one shot accuracy ones .The Hunter fight would show this and thats just one fight thats if you are not watching with beer goggles on.

    Anyone who really thinks he beats RELEVANT CURRENT TOP ranked HW's to go get an ACTUAL Championship belt let alone beat on Joshua himself is a complete fool.

    O.k junior come back if you want more answers....... :bash:

    Huck is shot. If Usyk is at least 3/4 as good as everyone claims he would have little trouble in this one.
