    Usyk gives a boxing lesson to Wilder, Chisora, Charr, Kownacki, etc...

    Whyte, Joyce, Parker, Povetkin 50/50.

    Usyk gets ruffled by Joshua, Fury, Ruiz, Miller, Hrgovic.

    Couldnt put Chazz Witherspoon away with his best shots. Schools those who struggle against skilled boxers, but those who can box and punch could walk through his punches and put him away. Will be interesting to see who his next opponent is. Can Usyk survive vs the big boxer/punchers in the division?

    It was a good performance you could see the quality when he stepped it up, however he just gets hit far too much. Against the big punchers of the division he could be in real trouble.

    Said it 18 months ago. Brilliant technical boxer, no doubt. But I can see some big boys eating him alive without the power to keep them off. Imagine feeding Usyk to Miller.

    Parker isn't a hard hitter though. He couldn't drop Romanian jorneyman or totally shot Alex Leapai (Kevin Johnson's KO victim).

    Usyk won't be ruffled by Parker, no way

    From what I've read, at this point Usyk shouldn't be compared to Holy moving up. Not yet. Holy took the heat of being told he had to fight a bang out war with an old washed up Michael Dokes. This would have been Spoon for Usyk.

    Holy didn't give a damn about Dokes's weight advantage, power. He came in at 208lbs almost 20lbs under Dokes. not more than 12 months since fighting at CW.

    Dokes at the point was better, far better than Spoon going in against Usyk. Usyk decided to box from what
    I've read, Holy went to slug it out and beat his foe, damn the corner stopping it.


    Usyk can make noise, but if he feared or even respected Spoon's power. Then at any given second, Wilder will be his Lunesta

    Usyk was hit far too much? He was barely touched, and when he turned up the heat Witherspoon face showed the damage that made him quit between rounds.

    Yeah, lets put Parker in the 50/50 pile, still, Usyk doesn't have the power to keep the big heavies off him, who in turn would be the ones breaking him down and stopping him. Still puts on a clinic vs Wilder though.

    Parker is a big dude and he won't be so easy to outbox...
    Usyk hasn't been tested yet at HW, whatever this was tonight is just an exhibition

    Miller? DW!!! If this flabby out of shape D level HW can land shots on Usyk wtf do you think DW would do?!!! Usyk is highly skilled but at HW you have to be able to crack hard enough to keep guys honest, if not they'll walk right through your shots and knock you out eventually. Even if you dont get ko`d the constant punishment in fights would be a problem. I think Usyk gets ko`d eventually. Needs to stay at CW.

    Usyk would be a horrible matchup for Ruiz, but the other top HWs would have a chance.

    My bigger issue than the lack of power is his apparent belief that his movement from CW will translate to HW. These guys don't care if you outbox them; they are looking for KOs. Usyk had better figure out that his movement makes him easier to time.

    He's really skilled tho. Would like to see him against a top 10 guy next.

    Usyk 215
    Wilder 215
    Miller 315

    It's not hate .. 'bro' .. its logic. styles make fights. Wilder is sloppy as hell and can't impose himself on Usyk, hes the same size. Szpilky gave him nightmares, imagine what Usyk will do. Wilder cant land a bomb on Usyk either, Usyk has cat-like reflexes with upper-body movement, Wilder misses all night. This is why Usyk calls him the easiest fight.

    Miller on the other hand walks straight through anything Usyk throws, his head is the size of an oven, bear hugs him, leans all over him and bashes his body into submission over a couple rounds before knocking his block off. Its called the imposition of mass. Usyk runs rings around and schools a sloppy Wilder. Miller mauls Usyk to death and uses his size and body shots to breakdown Usyk, like he does against all smaller guys.

    Usyk would make Miller take his gloves off, lay them at Usyks feet, climb out of the ring, and retire.

    Millers a showcase fight for the top heavies.

    41 yo cro cop went to war with Miller and was never bothered. Usyk won't be bothered either. Frankly the Joe Joyce fight was harder than this one and Usyk flattened Joyce. He\d take Miller to school.
