I prefer HW, but you could be right....
Yes, Thurman #1 at ww. I'd have Joshua top 25, no other heavy in the top 100.
25 ? 100 ? You kidding me. I have to go now, see you tomorrow......
Why would I kid. Those guys suck. If Crawford was 6'1 210 with his freakish long arms he'd stomp a mudhole in Joshua.

He won't get him, if he does Thurman will get his ass kicked something fierce. Not even competitive.

Whenever I predict that Usyk might be dangerous for Joshua - the majority of posters, here on forum, consider me a fool.
Usyk and Crawford are on the very similar skillset level.

Usyk doesn't have nearly the same snap and explosiveness to his punches, p4p, as Crawford does. Crawford regularly hurts people with single shots, Usyk doesn't, really.

While I do think the jury is still out on Usyk, given the WBSS, I think that he shows many of Hitman Jr's characteristics, including a proclivity to get into firefights when touched.

Usyk looks really impressive but the ATG, etc., claims are premature.

This is true, I do not want to be misunderstood - TC and Usyk, both have the "something beyond".....I think there might be no more than ten recent fighters with this kind of boxing skills.............
