Was watching Wilder vs Szpilka. Wilder was horrible swinging like a kid with a bad tantrum , his legs were crazy everywhere , horrible boxing fundamentals. However that power he has got the job done . How would this fight go ? Usyk has volume and a lot of work rate. Wouldn't that come forward approach work against him vs Wilder ? Would Usyk stay on the outside . who would you bet your money on? I think Usyks volume and work rate could force a stoppage on Wilder. Id pick Usyk overall to dominate Wilder . Usyk is my guy.
Usyk would have to avoid the right hand for a full 12 rounds. I don't think he can. My opinion only of course. What a joke that Usyk by stoppage is leading the poll right now
Could Usyk win yes, would he win, that depends whichever way Wilders quote turned out. "These guys have to be perfect for 12 rounds, I only need to be perfect for two seconds"
Gun to my head I'm going with Wilder. I think Usyk is too small. Can't stay on the outside and will get caught coming in.
Usyk's six three, 210/215 lbs. Wilder's six seven, 215/220lbs. Where's the massive size difference here, and why would it matter? Gun to your head you're getting your brains splattered if you pick Wilder.
I like Usyk as a fighter but his chin is unproven at heavyweight.Wilder is sure going to test it and i think Usyk gets knocked out
He's taken shots off Briedis, Gassiev, Huck, Glowacki, Joyce, Medzhidov and Nistor. His chin isn't untested at all.
Yeh but none of them hit like Wilder.And i said his chin has not been tested at Heavyweight.Correct me if i am wrong but none of those fighters you mentioned are heavyweights.
Goddamn tough one but I pick the superior technician usually. I think Usyk could TKO him with his volume punching as be steps up the gears. He'd get a read on Wilder's one dimensional style very quickly and make the adjustments early to destroy him. Wilder's only chance is (typically) a puncher's chance.
This puny Usyk would end up like grandpa Ortiz. These scrawny cruiserweight can't compete against these huge 6ft 7inch super heavy weights. Lol
