    Joshua couldn't stop a 65 year old 5'4 Carlos Takum without the ref doing it for him.

    Parker is fat. Usyk is practically the same size as Parker. Takam would get totally schooled by Usyk and won't even win a round.

    We need to see this.

    Somehow I don't see it though, Povetkin, Miller, Wilder, Whyte/Parker 2, Fury is pretty much the schedule. I think it's better for Usyk if Wilder beats Joshua, Wilder might give Usyk a shot more easily.

    Usyk would gas v AJ just like Steven Cunningham did v Fury.

    No, first of all Joshua wouldn't have landed that punch, he is slower on foot and in hand speed than Gassiev, Usyk has an amazing chin and would resist best Joshua has to offer

    Too slick&too feel

    Usyk is the biggest threat to AJ's reign right now, even bigger than Wilder and Fury.

    Usyk is an exception. That rule doesn't apply to him.

    You mean Takam that tucked up in survival mode, lost every round, got dropped 2X and was badly cut. Also the Joseph Parker that after feeling the power in the first 2 minutes boxed in reverse for the next 12 rounds, landed nothing of note and was just happy to be the only man to go the distance with Joshua?

    Usyk is not big enough, doeasnt hit hard enough and would get busted up and broken as the fight wore on!

    This is true.. as we saw tonight. Usyk would have the same gameplan against Joshua as he showed against Gassiev. Keep the other guy off balance, out of position and unable to sit down on his punches. I got a sense with Usyk tho that his chin can be cracked, no reason why other than gut feeling

    Usyk v the superior Lurch??! Good question.. SHW is a different kettle of fish.. Huge men, Usyk UD or Lurch via KO.

    Maybe it can be, but how is someone going to land frequently enough to polish him off, because I doubt they can do it with one shot, that was a monster shot Gassiev landed on him, the same kind that's dropped guy's with damn impressive chins... hurting him is one this, finishing him off is another, and it won't be easy.:deal:
