    Usyk, Arslan, Huck, Lebedev, Drozd?

    How does he fare against them? :think

    Something tells me they'll get RJJ over before he meets any of them! :lol::lol:

    Arslan would be a very decent s****, IMHO. He's past it to a degree, but can still bring it when he wants.

    Bellew should go nowhere NEAR Usyk.

    Huck? Huck stomps him.

    Lebedev? 70/30 to Dennis.

    I think Tony isn't getting the credit he deserves he has three good wins at Cruiserweight.

    To be fair most said Makabu was going to batter Bellew and that didn't happen.

    Apparently Drozd wants his title back now and says he will exercise his right to face Bellew, so Bellew may well be forced to fight him very soon.

    Wouldn't a unification over rule drozd fight? And with Eddie suddenly getting a fair few of his fighters WBC titles he would be able to put the drozd fight on hold for a few fights.

    Usyk would annihilate Bellew that one is for sure.

    Logic suggests.. on the Makabu performance.. Usyk & Stevenson & co would have the same fate.. or anyone else at cruiser you might think of..


    Wasn't the KO 3 enough to convice..? That alone is more impressive than a faded Chad Dawson or 20 bums that the up and comers have fought..


    He crushed a genuine world cruiser inside 3..

    Afolabi is probably considering coming out of retirement now.

    Also the online/UK boxing community is a joke.. calling something fixed.. when it isn't.. is saying something that isn't true.. or saying something that might not be true..

    It's not like you have an accusation (by some official somebody).. and you don't know if you can believe the accusation..


    It's just amateur hour..


    Say a fight WAS fixed.. the ones in question get the chair and pay.. but what about the ones saying it was fixed if it's not?


    One's morally wrong.. the other is inaccurate..

    Usyk is talented no doubt.. I've watched what's there..


    What's that other guy from Olympics.. he hasn't looked as good as 9-0 (9).. what's his name.. but he was a top amateur too..
