    If he beats Fury and becomes undisputed, I believe he should undoubtedly be considered as top 10-15 ATG at the very least.

    Olympic Gold Medalist, One of the best amateurs ever, undisputed cruiserweight in a very strong division, undisputed HW beating Joshua and Fury.

    I wouldn't count him out against anyone. His biggest issue is he is competing in an era where the sport is not popular or mainstream. Most people don't even know who he is unlike back in roaring 20's when everyone knew of Jack Dempsey. H2H I think most people with half a brain would bet Uysk would easily beat a guy like Jack Dempsey, Rocky Marciano or even Joe Louis but because of the legacy of those guys, people are too chickens **** say it.

    I think Uysk has proven that he can beat just about anyone. If he beats Fury, he could certainly beat anyone ever.

    GOAT for sure

    The winner of that fight earns the distinction of being the GOAT and no amount of whining or baba tears from Crybaby Creche is going to change that. Not now, not ever.

    Even if he loses to Fury he is the GOAT cruiserweight

    & he has shown he can beat off/jerk off many of these heavys.

    P4P means nothing.

    Number 1? after 2010 perhaps. other then that top 20 is the max he can get.

    whom did Fury beat? 39Wlad which he claimed himself was 'over the hill' or BUM beater Wilder whos best resume is who? Szpilka?

    He would be in the same tier as Floyd and Manny imo so top 30 at least.

    I might be in the minority in this thread but my view is that boxing is an old sport that spanned about 136 yrs and has seen hundreds of great and talented fighters over the years. Honestly, I don't think I can put Usyk in the top 25, 30 yet since the talent pool of the last century is so great like Robinson, Jofre, Canzoneri, Hagler, Duran, and so many other names. Just because I don't think Usyk is in the top 30 list whatsoever doesn't mean he's not great. I think Usyk is a great fighter who secured himself a spot at the Hall of Fame. But defining greatness by automatically saying they need to be a top 25 or 30 fighter is absurd.

    Put Top 5, but I think in years to come that may change.
    To be Undisputed in both Cruiser and Heavyweight… that can’t be made up!
    I think Time will be kind to his achievements and he’ll be seen as the legitimate Goat in 20-30 years time.

    Greatest of this era. Floyd cannot hold his jockstrap. Not sure there is a 200lb boxer in history he wouldn't be favourite over h2h, although I am thinking Marciano, Cincinnati Cobra, Evan Fields as possibles.
