    Lol... You are so delusional when it comes to AJ it's unreal. In the end you'll be proven wrong if Usyk ever tries to move up and AJ puts him in his place.

    Okay, all of you detractors of mine when it comes to AJ, let's get something straight, yeah I was trolling a little when I said AJ would get KO'd by a lot of the bums he's faced for the last few years, similar to how most Deontay detractors did and still do the same thing. But let's not get it twisted, AJ almost just lost to a shot to hell 40 year old Wlad who was afraid to pull the trigger, or couldn't against Tyson Fury, and yes, he almost lost, AJ was dead on his feet in the 5th after the Wlad's comeback from the KD, then almost KO'd in the 6th, and behind on the scorecards late when he scored the KO, its not completely crazy to think that ohhh, maybe a younger, faster more versatile technically skilled fighter will have his number. AJ is not unbeatable, he's a hell of a lot more fragile than most of you guys are willing to admit.

    Fine, I cried wolf a few times, and clearly it didn't pan out, but that doesn't mean that other world level guys can't take that 0, because he's one of the most vulnerable HW champs in recent memory, that's the reality, and there's no amount of fanboy wishing and hoping and praying that's going to change that.

    Usyk is next level, and yes, skills pay the bills, even at HW, AJ will hit nothing but air, he'll look like a buffoon in there against Usyk, mark my words.:deal:

    Vlad was 41 years old and almost had Joshua out, his mistake was inactivity and not using any body punches, if he had he would have finished Joshua off. Usyk is too fast for Joshua, too skilled and young as well. So, I would not be surprised if Usyk beat him, but Joshua has other fights lined up for now and Usyk is not ready to move up yet, but he will in time.............Usyk throws pitty pat punches sometimes to set his opponent up, but when he sets down on his punches he is a hard puncher, he uses angles like Lomachenko..................

    lol, mate, I don't think he hits hard enough. Movement and speed are whats gonna carry him up at heavy ! The only drawback is his power imo. Hope I'm wrong

    Fight will never happen unless Usyk gets a rep at heavyweight...realistically outside true boxing fans, no-one in the UK knows who Usyk is.

    This is the sad reality of this whole situation. Usyk is solid but the man has no real stand out gifts and he's older than AJ. If this fight was signed tomorrow, the same people cheering Usyk in this thread would be making excuse threads immediately about how AJ is on PEDs and everything else. It never stops on this board.

    Oleksandr Usyk shuts him out and perhaps even stops Joshua between 9th - 12th round. A so called 'stiff', 'robotic' and a 'mechanical' boxer in Wladimir Klitschko looked like a ballerina at age 41 with 2 years of layoff against Anthony Joshua at Joshua's athletic / physical prime.

    What do you lot think is going to happen when someone who is much faster, much more mobile, much more nimble and agile in Olekandr Usyk is going to do when he faces Joshua? He is going to look more impressive than just a ballerina. He will look like a cheetah or one of the other agile cats or even a fighter plane in comparison to the stiff as a rod / board / rock Anthony Joshua.

    Oleksandr Usyk is going to produce music out of the sound produced from the punches he will be landing on Anthony Joshua's big, wide and open targeted body.

    Be prepared for 12 rounds of beautiful and violent orchestra in which one guy simultaneously beats his opponent up whilst producing symphonic music!
