    The man took bombs from Huck, Gassiev and Briedis and never been close to going down, how highly do you rate his chin and do you think he will withstand the best joshua has to offer?

    He was stunned a couple of occasions IMO, Gassiev was really hurting him downstairs though.

    Gassiev is possibly the hardest puncher in boxing, and Usyk wasn't even moderately hurt once!

    Certified Ukrainian iron. AFAIA, he's only ever been down once am and pro and that was from a body shot. Gassiev, Briedis, Glowacki, and Huck all pack power and none of them came close to dropping him or hurting him badly, neither did any of those giants in the WSB who outweighed him by 20-40lbs and some of them were serious bangers against men their own size, let alone the much lighter Usyk.

    Arreola said Gassiev is the hardest puncher he's been in the ring with so it's legit HW power.

    you're a butthurt hater. Usyk is unreal, just had a faultless brilliant performance, and is right at the top of the P4P ratings. deal with it! :D

    It's a bit shaky. He's weathered the storm though.

    He was staggered at the end of the 3rd ori 4th round I believe. And he had to clinch.

    Gassiev barely landed all night, but when he did it caused Usyk to immediately get the **** up out of range.

    I give it a 7 or 8.

    Usyk has taken hard shots both at heavy in the WSB and from both big punchers
    in Breidis (cold cocked heavyweight Manuel Charr with one shot) and Gassiev and
    didn't hit the deck or even dance on ***** street. His chin is solid, but more importantly
    he doesn't take shots flush much.

    I don’t believe Gassiev punches harder than Joshua or Wilder
