    So this somehow translate to him beating one of the best heavy heavyweight of this era? This is not a question of who’s resume was better but if they stepped into the ring and fought. Roy was a horrible boxer that made up for his lack of skill with being one of the most physically gifted fighter ( some says it was ped , which he admitted) Roy physical dominance allowed him to get KOs that other in those weight could not cope with.

    At heavyweight Usyk has faced and ate some huge punchers. There is nothing Roy is throwing at him he couldn’t take. The same can’t be said from Roy and Usyk has power. Also at Heavy weight the speed wouldn’t be that much of a difference. Usyk wins this and wins it by KO.

    This does not take away Roy as being the best at his natural weight.

    Man, somebody doesn't like RJJr to make this match up. Even in his prime and before his chin was cracked, he would have had his mandible shattered.

    It was PEDs. Never mind him admitting it...he failed a test.
