    Am I the only one who thinks Usyk looks thinner than against Joshua (100.4 and 100.5 kilos as a reminder)? I have the impression that he will be 98-99 at the weigh-in but hey it's still Dubois in front.

    I'm expecting a masterclass of boxing and moving

    If only fury had the balls to fight this man. A more active usyk is most definitely p4p.

    Anyway to hell with p4p, usyk is the baddest man in the sport and he will.prove it again Saturday

    Can't tell, he isn't too muscled, but he's also lean. That's fine, the guy feels good at around 100 kg, which is a good weight for his height. He doesn't rely on strength, so again - he is fine here.

    Usyk fights best when he's slim. His combination of handspeed and footspeed are even at this stage the best in the division by far.

    Looks like hgh gut to me, makes sense of the only fighting twice a year since he's stepped up.

    He did look slim and drained to me too. Whereas Dubois looks built and ripped.

    Well he isn't a big guy. He has to be on a caloric surplus just to make the HW limit.

    There is no “minimum”
    Ever heard of Roy Jones Jr?
