    No this was back in 2015. The Sky commentary team mentioned it during his fight against Glowacki.

    Yeah, just came on and saw all these threads and comments. Like you said, it's bizarre. Ah well, they likely have awakening coming when he actually matches up against a top flight SHW.

    Usyk is proven at his division, AJ at his own. Very premature to say Usyk can run riot in a different division, especially the HW division, when no one with his fight game ever has before

    Usyk is undisputed cruiser, decorated , elite amateur, joshua is neither. All joshua has is shot wlad and olympic gold that he never won.
    But I agree with other part of your post as I don’t think usyk will ever be a dominant heavyweight and I would def favor british stiff to beat him , imo it’s 75/25 fight.

    Think you are a little harsh w AJ, but I agree Usyk has the more impressive amatuer and pro career for his division, and that it would be a 75/25 fight

    Welcome to 2018 where boxing fans rate fighters based on "hypothetical" match up's and sparring stories instead of the good old day's when you had to actually prove your self with a real resume.

    That's not taking anything away from usky either, i rate him highly, But briedis and gassiev are nothing special, Start adding names like parker,whyte, and wilder and AJ to your resume and you become an true ATG, All this hypothetical nonsense is getting silly, i see it more and more these day's.

    Usyk never sparred Klitchko.....The only person who trained both guys was Ali Bashir who said they never let Usyk near Klitchko who would hurt him potentially.

    Yes I know Bashir denied it happened. In fact, I was the one who first mentioned it on here that he denied it. However, he said it might have happened when he wasn't there. But at least two members of the Sky commentary team said they witnessed it.

    How would the sky commentary witness it ? Lol


    where would it have taken place?

    I'm not buying that one.....


    Ali Bashir isn't one to make things up!

    Because they were in Klitschko's camp filming when it happened

    I didn't say he made it up, I said he said that if it did happen it happened when he wasn't there.

    Klitchkos manage Usyk , I'm pretty sure they aren't going to be hitting the guy. Certainly not going to go blast him with hard punches!

    where is the film footage/ video?

    come on now if they were there they would have recorded it.

    Byrd school Vitali. No reason to think Usyk wouldn't.

    Er. they also managed Afolabi and sparred him. In fact, Wlad hit him so hard he ''had a headache for days''

    You're only allowed to film what they let you. Maybe they did film it, maybe they didn't. All I know is I heard two sources say they witnessed it and it would be a pretty outrageous lie to make something like that up.
