he has but AJ aint Usyk. Aj was kinda washed then. he never recovered from ruiz tbh. usyk just doesnt get bothered and its great being a massive puncher you gotta be able to hit him first

gonna be a epic fight for sure.I love AJ but the guy is finished at the top level now. Usyk is just different gravy and we will see how much experience and confidence he has if his game plan isn't successful. We've already had two Knees. Is Triple D finally going to become Triple Knee?
Though, Father Time is undefeated and he can appear at any moment and in a young mans game it is hard to ignore the advantage of youth.
well lots of interesting news today for boxing.
first eubank and connor benn rematch is off. eubank dont want it. no suprise was in hosptial for 3 or 4 days afterwards. was a contract too. so saudis aint happy. there is talk of shakur stevenson vs connor benn which id much rather watch at benns weight. think benn could beat him at 147.
2nd ppv services finishing with boxing...turki is working with DAZN to bring down the cost to 10 quid a month for the basic pack to see all boxing cards fights. with upto 36 cards planned per year in the future. £20 a month for 4k and all the trimmings. step in the right direction.

Super cheap compared to what they were spending every PPV in the US. Wasnt it like a crazy $80 a time
yeah so this will be a massive deal when it starts think its november. 10 quid for a month with 2 ro 3 big cards on. many will obviously just pay legit for it.
i just want all that shizzle with the low blow to be over. so low but every dubious sider uses it as some kind of argument to why he quit off a simple jab
Turki Alalshikh revealed Jake Paul has accepted a fight against Anthony Joshua
“It will be good for me. If Joshua destroys him, the headache of Jake Paul will go from my mind.”
while it would be a dream to see the clown finally destroyed....i smell a rat somewhere

Being a Usyk super fan boy, I’m going for him to punish Dubois and put on a masterclass to defy all the disrespect he gets saying “low blow” or “getting old”.
Usyk stoppage by rd 10.

I think he’ll make DDD quit way before then.
It’s heavyweight boxing so anything can happen but DDD has shown to have the quit in him

I feel like with Usyk they would just like to keep rolling him out until he loses now… just so they can almost disprove how much of a legit all time great he actually is.
he is amazing as a boxer but all time great wouldnt put him there. imagine 20 year old tyson in with usyk wouldnt last about 3 rounds tops against prime mike. george foreman i think would have destroyed him. lewis probably would have beaten him on points or knocked him out. you can only fight people in front of you and he has been the best heavy weight or boxer for the last 25 years.

He’s all ATG at cruiser and he’ll always be remembered as a great heavyweight. He beat all, convincingly and always as the ‘smaller’ man.
Usyk beats Tyson. I think he would struggle with Lennox as Lennox had size, skill and power.
You can’t diminish what Usyk has done at any weight.

I'm not so sure. You maybe forget the weight that all these guys were actually fighting at. Pre-Buster Tyson beats anyone but he was fighting at under 16 stone most of the time and was only 5'10. Ali was fighting at 212lbs on average. Usyk just weighed in at 226. I'm with @Junglist - ATG Cruiser and a great heavyweight - arguably the best of this generation and since Lennox Lewis (who I still think is under rated). I also believe that Usyk is a great man regardless of his boxing prowess, that sets him above his current peers.
thing with tyson was he was faster than usyk could do the same with both hands which is rare in boxing. also great to the body with speed . the weight wouldnt of mattered as we seen with tyson anyway. usyk is beyond anyone else of this era and a joy to watch. if only chizora was a little bit better. he would have beaten him

Usyks movement and fitness are better than all time great.
I think he beats them all. Like I said, fan boy. It’s all interesting debate though. Always hard to judge who would beat who from different generations.
Think Lennox Lewis is a close one…

Think I said it after the last Fury fight but Usyk really really needs to walk away if he wins this one. Absolutely zero left to prove and what motivation would he have to face Fury or Joshua yet again.
Ride off into the sunset before a hungry young pup catches him on the way down.

Dubois never strikes me as the sharpest knife in the drawer, almost painful at times to see him in conferences. He’s seemingly living off the AJ fight where yes he looked good but by all accounts it was a washed up AJ.
I can’t look past Usyk, he’s the better/smarter boxer with a stupidly good tank, imo.

If Dubois doesn’t finish him in 6 then it’ll go the same way as the previous fight. Looking forward to it though.
