    Right. He would next get to fight for ALL the titles after this fight over, and would also get paid for stepping aside


    exactly right


    Win-win situation for Usyk

    I think chisora was bad style match up.

    So what is your top 5?

    Fury
    Aj
    Povetkin
    Whyte/wilder?
    Ruiz, ortiz?

    He would strugle aginst fury and Aj most likely lose to them but they are no1 and no2

    Would outbox others i believe with wilder being harder fight due to size and right hand power.

    So in top 5 fury, Aj, wilder are hardest fights.

    I guess it means Hw division is weak

    Post full his fight contract here, please. If you do have this.

    Than 39 y.o Pulev : I think sure.

    The winner will be the first heavyweight to hold all 4 belts.

    Hope he got step aside money. Usyk deserves a total shot now. If he doesn’t get the winner of this fight next, it’s criminal.

    Usyk is probably on the verge of being shot. These hi-tek Ukrainians do not age well. Since Pac everyone seems to have forgotten that high energy styles don't hold up for long.

    AJ doesn`t have the skill to embarras Usyk, he didn`t land that much on Pulev who is nowhere near as skille as Usyk and only had 14 KO`s on his record.

    Good move on Usyks part, don't wanna be remembered as the guy that ruined the titles being unified. Gives him some cash and gets another tune up, which he'll need as he's looked far from impressive so far at heavy.

    Good. Nothing wrong with everyone getting what they want. Except wilder but he made his bed.

    Funny how people were clamoring for Usyk to step aside and let Fury-Joshua happen.

    As it turned out Usyk-AJ and Fury-Wilder III produced two excellent bouts that were full of surprise and intrigue. But no unification.

    Now we're back to a rematch clause once again delaying HW Division unification.

    Usyk offers to step aside to let the biggest match in HW boxing happen, then gets the win vs AJ. Wilder goes through legal means to block the fight from happening and gets KO'd.

    It's like poetry.
