Usyk to become Joshua WBO mandatory

So, today the WBO made Joshua a 'Super Champion' as well, LOL.

Usyk dont want dat Wok.

 

No...I think he's established pretty clearly that he's as good as those guys. You don't have to be a fan to see that to be true.

 

I don't disagree necessarily, I just got the impression by your initial post, that he was only worthy in the minds of his fans as if he wasn't just as worthy as the other guys you listed. I really didn't mean for it to be a huge point of contention and cause a big back and forth, it was just an observation but I think we agree by and large.

 

Did you see the small print at the bottom? The 'Super Champion' will have to be, "An honorary member of the WBO FOR LIFE". Will Usyk and Joshua now have second thoughts?

 

Usyk will have to go through Dillian the bodyguard Whyte first before he is allowed anywhere near AJ.

Only 40 year olds and short men are allowed first entry.

I think if Usyk is serious about wanting to go up to heavyweight, you look at us, what we got,” Hearn said to IFL TV. ”He wants to fight Anthony Joshua. That’s the feeling we got from their camp. Not now, but when he’s in his prime at heavyweight. So if he thinks he can beat Tony Bellew, then he can fight Dillian Whyte after. He can fight Joshua if he beats him,” Hearn said.

 

What the **** are you goin on about? Usyk? GTFO with that bull****. He's too small and has zero power. WTF he gonna do to beat any of the others you named? You have no ****ing clue at all. Maybe try shutting the **** up? Just a suggestion xx

 

Usyk doesn't concern me but then I'm a fan of both Joshua and Usyk, so whoever wins I'm happy that we'll have a champion who isn't afraid of stepping up fighting the best and unifying.

Fury I'm not a fan of and currently he doesn't concern me, he's currently a shadow of his former self, but if he gets back close to where he was then I'd be concerned. If Fury becomes champion again he probably implodes again and retires.

Wilder concerns me, if he somehow wins we'll basically have him fighting Haymon heavies until he retires and I can't see that being good for the division.

 

Usyk should fight Joshua first up. That will make bigger history, be a bigger achievement. And I’d pick Usyk to pull it off. What a fight, please let it happen.

 

Usyk needs some fights at HW first .Charr would be a good start .Usyk hasn't got one punch power like Briedas but is very fast and skillful I doubt AJ will fancy the job unless he turns it into a hugaphon it could be a very frustrating night .stand still and let me hit you!

 

Usyk should acclimatise first. Bad idea taking on A as his first HW fight.

 

He'll do just fine without any acclimatizing. Remember the 38 year old Takam was riding around in the park on his bicycle 2 weeks before he went in there with AJ and still managed to cause trouble.

So I'm sure a primed fully trained Usyk will have no trouble at all.

 

Joshua fans desperately googling "who is Usyk", "is Usyk good" and "how do I stop dribble leaking out of my mouth"

 

Why are you people getting over excited about a cruiserweight beating Joshua, or even fighting Joshua...

He is untested at heavyweight it's a different ball game, how will his power hold up and he's durability. He might have all the skill in the world but it can only take you so far.

Once joshua lands a body shot or any reasonable shot to the head, Usyk will be in a world of pain.

He needs to fight some top 15 heavies to be taken seriously at heavyweight. Full credit to him as a cruiser though and I know he fought Joe Joyce before
