He sounds like a massive cunt. But the whole regime is.

good read thx!



Usyk by UD. Think they should have rebooked the Parker fight

 

[Badass J Elkann]

Dubois had no right to be in that ring with Usyk tonight, got done like a Scottish Mars bar... BATTERED

Said it for years Usyk would dominate the heavyweight division when he steps up from Cruiserweight... but 2 times unified heavyweight champion... GOAT

 

[Stevie]

Great fighter.

Gimme Tyson back.

Fury is a bum. Usyk should just walk away now. Parker has nothing on him either, the rest have been beaten, Itauma is far too early for him.

 

[MAXCAP]

Wished Andre Ward never retired so early, he might’ve cared too much about his perfect record.

watch it before it's removed, killer ko

 

[JuveJay]

Dubois didn't do anything sensibly, that was never going to work against Usyk.

 

[Kopanja]

Have to admit that now I’m thinking Usyk UDs Evander in hypothetical fight.

 

[MAXCAP]

I can see that however I don’t know. I remember watching Evander back then too on HBO. I can see it going all the way ‘till the end.

 

[Stevie]

There's always too much recency biased in sports.

Evander was an absolute beast and is an all time great.

Reality is that we will never know and we can only guess. Which is fun to do I suppose.

 

[Kopanja]

Evander is one of my favorites. But in h2h matchup in cruiser I’d probably pick Usyk now. Though it also depends on ref and if Evan Fields is allowed to take his vitamins.

Guy may as well retire from boxing if that's what he is going to put into it.

Cruiser weight, Usyk Fosho. What a match it would be with those two and Jude Mills Lane for the ref.

Shows how far AJ is falling. But for a big purse and a probably easy fight it's not a hard decision.

Hopefully AJ takes the fight seriously and hits Paul as hard as he hit Ngannou. With a bit of luck it'll retire him from boxing.

 

[Kopanja]

It won't happen. AJ literally might kill this guy.

Interested to see the prodigious Moses Itauma in his first notable fight against Dillian Whyte. 6'4" southpaw who moves very well and has good KO power, only 20 years old and has a 12(10)-0-0 record.

Someone like Usyk way too early for him. BIt of a shame as their eras won't overlap too well unless Usyk plans on boxing for another 3-4 years (which I don't believe is the case).
