Will Usyk now decide to retire as the undisputed champion?

He will not...there,s another 100-000-000 usd to make

 

He is now at the very end of his career. He beat the two best heavyweights in AJ and Fury. He will go down as an ATG if he retires now.

 

A few wins over guys like Parker and Hgrovic would be very good for his resume, and would move him up even higher in all time P4P rankings.

But it would be a perfect, almost fairy tale like ending if he retired after beating Fury. A Cruiserweight sized man that was destined to become the Heavyweight champion, who had to conquer both divisions in his road to greatness and fistic immortality.

 

You answered your own question in your question Cornish , a $ 50,000,000 + purse indicates to me we've not seen the last of Usyk with a possible trilogy here with Fury imo but it's too early to talk re matches I'm happy letting the dust settle on this barn burner for a couple of months first mate .

 

I hope he retires, he did everything from a child winning all the juniors, to national, european, international, world amateurs, olympic gold, semi pros, undisputed Cruiser, and UNDISPUTED HEAVY. If that's not ATG to you get checked. He's not a natural heavyweight. Perfect ending

 

He could well retire as I doubt rematch happens.

 

I hope so.

 

Of course I want to see Usyk fight a few more times, as he's that great at what he does (no one adjusts mid fight like Usyk does). But even though it goes against what I selfishly want, retiring at the top of the entire sport would be brilliant. Just brilliant.

 

Hes a champion not a coward.

 

He'll fight on.

 

Agreed , but long camps make for long zeros added to the bank balance .

 

He's completed boxing. Nothing left to prove.

 

Yes and he should. He is way past his prime, and was barely walking after the fight.

His footwork and hand speed has clearly slowed down quite a lot, compare to AJ fights, let alone to his prime.
He is a shadow of himself and should retire on TOP.
F***** Fury and AJ. They need to fight to determine who the Number 2 and Number 3 are in the division.

 

I'd like to see him retire. Best to go out now than carry on and risk losing - he's 37 now and has nothing else to prove
