    The fight isn't really relevant anymore, nor did it justify a rematch at the time.

    An Usyk fight with Wilder could still happen on a long shot if Wilder takes the bridger fights with Okolie and rejuvenates his career. It is a long shot, and a lot of things would have to fall into place, but Usyk is talking about moving down, and Wilder has had an offer to move down, so not entirely out of the question.

    Usyk would adapt and improve in the next fight but why not....

    Well yeah, sometimes he was an offensive machine like in his bouts with Usyk and Glowacki, but then in others he was super passive, like against Perez and Mikaeljan.

    You are describing Briedis varying his tactics against different opponents while still beating them quite comfortably. He was 23-0 prior to fighting Usyk. Hardly inconsistent.

    He did do enough to win most of the time and I’m not denying the guy’s work ethic. It’s just that with his skill and power I feel like he could’ve pushed a tougher pace at times and gotten more stoppages. Dorticos is another example of Briedis looking like he could’ve beaten him up whenever he wanted to but just chose to coast to a decision win.

    Usyk has said he only has two fights left and that's Fury and then the winner of Dubois v AJ providing it's AJ.

    NOT being a wise guy, but can you link me to a source for that? Just curious, because I have heard him say multiple times that he is going down to cruiser again.

    I have heard him say he has at most two more fights AT HEAVY, which he named as the Fury rematch and Joshua a third time if he wants it. Are you sure that is not what he meant when when he said two more...two more at heavy?

    You're not a wise guy, just a not up to date guy:

    Briedis was dealing with injury woes when he fought Gevor

    Old post

    I saw a post on YT probably about a week ago (a week before the Gevor fight) saying that Briedis ''can't use his power because he has an injury''


    And I saw this on there too

    ''Briedis had a surgery on his wrist and is still recovering from that. Not sure why that is kept quiet. So pretty much he boxed Gevor one handed. But he has serious issues in his camp, that need addressing asap''

    And this is what his former coach said

    Former Coach, analyzing the Last Fighting Deer, lists a number of things that Mairim managed to show a better boxing. "Mairis jumps on top, heads up, he's sitting on jajb, but there's no sequel. Mairis works well with jab, but you're on the right hand. But the reason is already known to many - the good hand was hurt. So you can say that this He won the fight with jabb. I do not want to go too far because Maira's mistakes are being corrected by his coaches, "says Klein in a conversation with Sportacentrs.com.

    I'm not sure what you mean. By "super passive" do you mean very passive?
