Usyk's Heavyweight Run is grossly overrated

Usyk can only fight who is available to him and he has and he beat them .

 

I got nothing against Tyson. I don’t get my head banged up for other people’s entertainment. And calling Tyson a bum? That’s ridiculous but everyone got a right to their opinions

 

Usyk's first fights under pro rules were his WSB fights, where he fought at HW, weighed in around 205-210. He's a natural HW, has always been. Just happened to be on the "small" side so he could shred/dehydrate down to make 200.

Turning pro at CW was a choice. He easily could have just turned pro at HW. Actually, given what a giant slayer he's proven to be, might not have been a bad idea.

 

I can agree it's "overrated" but it's still pretty darn good.
The unnecessary rematches are really ruining the sport. He clearly beat Fury, AJ , and Dubois he first time. Wasted 3 potential slots on pointless rematches.

Becoming Undisputed is a huge achievement. Has not been done since Lennox did it 20 years prior. I give Usyk lots of credit and rate him highly. The heavyweight resume, I rate less highly than the fighter.

 

Quality bait this is.

 

Anyone want to discuss Usyk's career in person, I'll be in Hyde Park, Sydney, around midnight.
