    I think you’re greatly underestimating Wilder here.

    I think everyone's underestimating Wilder. Personally all it takes is one shot and Wilder has proven without a doubt lately he will find a way to land that punch. So the question isn't if Wilder lands that enormous right hand on Usyk, the question is when, and what happens after that? Will he get up like a 250+ lb Fury who barely made it out himself? I don't think so.

    Name 5 more skilled then.

    My top 5 would probably look like this in no order.
    Loma, Inoue, Crawford, Canelo and Usyk

    Wilder would knock him out silly. If Bellew, Briedis, Hunter, etc were all having not much issue landing, Wilder would definitely land a big right and put him to sleep. There's a reason this guy wanted to fight Tyrone Sprong and Reese Witherspoon lmao.

    I can think of quite a few guys I think are more skilled, for me what made Usyk a great CW was his exceptional physical attributes rather than an exceptional skillset. That’s not to say he’s not extremely skilled.

    I think we can just agree to disagree on this one George.

    All the 3 fighters you mentioned are far more technically adept and don’t fight like a spastic on wiz.

    What part of Joshua being a puncher do you think I'm joking about?

    We'll see. Im not sold on Usyk taking over the division.

    Question is though is he gonna fight one of these guys before they lose their positions... its taking forever for him to mount a meaningful assault on the division.

    I don’t understand the logic. And I don’t mean any disrespect. I just don’t see how you came to this conclusion.

    You can take what you want but I have a far different view than you on Usyk. But, that’s your opinion. Also, I wouldn’t assume what others have or haven’t watched when it comes to fighters.
