    The fact that he's schooling and smashing up a whole load of top world class fighters is very impressive, but he's doing it all in their backyards. Which is unheard of. That boosts him in P4P/ ATG ways

    Murat Gassiev in Russia
    Mairis Breidis in Latvia
    Tony Bellew in England
    Kyrsztof Glowacki in Poland
    Marco Huck in Germany
    Michael Hunter in USA

    Who's next!!!

    Thats no lie. Pretty amazing. I dont think Ive seen, or at least can think of, a name fighter that fought away so many times in actual big fights. Impressive.

    Unified a division in just 15 fights, winning all of his world titles in his opponent's backyards, winning all of his world title fights on the road, all bar one of which in his opponent's backyards (fought 6 of his 7 world title fights in his opponent's backyards), and he's beaten 4 undefeated fighters in their countries, 3 of whom were reigning world champions, and 5 current or former world champions, and not a Ukrainian ref or judge in sight for any of his world title fight to help facilitate his path to victory or to bail him out if he finds himself in trouble.


    And on top of all that he won all his fights via clean boxing and zero deck stacking or rolling with loaded dice. Usyk the road warrior extraordinaire. The Anti-Diva.

    That's ^^^ truly ''daring to be great''

    ''I think they're going to be some of my last fights (fights at home) and at this moment I plan on travelling a lot throughout the world, and I wanna fight all over the world''

    Glowacki (26-0) in Poland (WBO champ)
    Mchunu (17-2) in the US (neutral soil)
    Hunter (12-0) in the US
    Huck (40-4-1) in Germany (former long reigning WBO champ)
    Briedis (23-0) in Latvia (WBC champ)
    Gassiev (26-0) in Russia (unified WBA and IBF champ)
    Bellew (30-2-1) in England (former WBC champ)

    And if he wants Anthony ''AJ'' Joshua (WBA, IBF & WBO three-belt unified champion) in England in front of a vociferous and very partisan AJ home crowd of 90,000 at Wembley stadium

    Hey bro ^^^ you forget to mention he was robbed in the 2008 Olympics against that spoiler SOB Russo who went onto to win silver that year and had you not been you were virtually guaranteed to win the gold in Serge's esteemed opinion, thus making you a 2 x Olympic gold medalist.

    Amateur record of 335-15

    You also forgot to list Usyk's gold and bronze medals at the European championships and his world championship bronze.

    Really good call. Winning fights on the road is the toughest gig in boxing.

    Tells you how good this guy really is. Biggest threat out there to Joshua, imo.

    What's wrong with you? Can't you just appreciate good fighters without looking at the colour of their skin?

    I really pity people who totally define themselves by what shade they happen to be.

    I don't like the white supremacist posters on here but the argument that other people are dicks so I'll be one too doesn't hold much weight in my opinion.

    And unless you think Uysk is a racist that shares the views of some of the people who claim to be his fans then you'd do well not to lay that **** at his door. If a ****** was a Manchester United fan would you say the football club supports his crimes? No, of course you wouldn't.

    Why is "great white hope" still a thing? Do you think people support Usyk because of his skin colour, Kang?

    What I don't get is when people decide the best way of combatting racism is with... more racism. Great.

    Yeah, I support Usyk purely because of his skin colour, and not his natural talent, exciting, fast style of boxing and genuinely humble and funny demeanor.

    ****ing turd.
