    Even if they survive all 12 rounds, Usyk outclasses them in a one-sided fight...

    Schmeling is the only one who could make it interesting. I'd expect him to lose a fairly one sided UD, with a few sparsely separated pockets where he makes it look competative.

    Schmeling has the best chance. The others are too crude.

    I agree that Schmeling has the best chance, which is not to say that he wins though.

    Schmeling was the physically frailest, though, fighting under 200 his whole career, and received a whipping by Baer.

    I think Usyk could beat any two on the same night, possibly all three.

    I'm not sure how many he stops but he's a good thing to win.

    Lock up your china, it's ON! Axar just hit a 4 and a 6 back to back. He's thrown down the gauntlet.

    Schmeling is a problem
    The other 2 aren't special IMO
