After the fight with Hunter , it is clear , that Usyk would not survive 12 rounds with Anthony Joshua. Michael Hunter landed his jab at will against him , i had the fight 116-111 for Usyk. Anthony Joshua would hunt him through the ring , and he could do nothing about it . Usyk has not the power to hurt Anthony Joshua. I think the discussion about if Usyk could beat AJ , has an end now.
LoooooL!!!! Based off what??? Who has Joshua beat on the level of Usyk? Besides Anthony's getting clipped in 3 weeks. He'll be damaged goods
I really love how people are automatically bringing up the Usyk v.s Joshua hypothetical matchups. Why would Usyk go after Anthony after Wlad starches him??
Well idk about the Wlad vs Joshua fight but it's pretty funny how for 2 weeks Usyk and GGG were crossed off from a lot of people in the forum...
If Usyk would move up to the HW division , he would lose some of his speed. I think he would fight with around 220 pounds , so he would have a 25 pounds disadvantage in weight and a 3 inch disadvantage in height. Anthony Joshua is unbelievably fast for a Heavyweight. He destroyed a 6 ft 7 , 250 pounds beast in Breazeale, who is known for having a good chin. One heavy punch from AJ could be the end for Usyk. Usyk can get hit with relative ease as we saw in the fight against Hunter. Anthony Joshua would get his chances , Usyk has also a big reach disadvantage , he has to go inside. He would get seriously hurt against someone with heavy and fast hands like AJ.
He has to go inside , he has a big reach disadvantage, also Joshua's movement is not that bad for a Heavyweight fighter ,actually.
does Joshua have an unorthodox style like Hunter - No is Usyk a heavyweight yet - No Would Usyk destroy the guy in your avatar - Yes Would Usyk's speed cause Joshua huge problems when he moves up - Yes Did Usyk dominate all the top super heavyweight in the world in the WSB - Yes
Yep and only Usyk fans would disagree with that. Theres many on here who are obviously trolling and some who actually believe Usyk is remotly on Joshua HW level...gotta love it though!
I've never been that high on Usyk (you can look that up in my post history if you disbelieve me), and this fight more or less confirms what I've always thought, that he's just a bit too slow, light hitting and hittable to last long against the best of the division. Joshua would not only have a substantial height, reach and weight advantage over him, I'd also pick him to be the faster man on the night (though only by a marginal amount). I don't see any way he does well there. I'd still pick him to beat Wilder, but that's due to how terrible I think Wilder is, not necessarily a reflection on Usyk's ability.
TROLL ALERT! surely this is a joke. Usyk is one of the fastest Cruiserweights ever! Amazing speed for a big man.
The funny thing is i called Usyk by 12 round decision on you tube and there's still idiots on here who cant see that fight DIRECTLY shows his limitations as a fighter now( hes still green ) and at Hw would run into multitude of problems. He wont be fighting world series of fighting NON ranked HW's ppl are just to stupid sometimes...oh well...its boxing!
