I think AJ catches Usyk and gets the KO, but it’s a fight that’s extremely close until that point, due to the Ukrainian tying him up with foot work and a quick jab, he is outstanding off the jab too, would be a test of AJ’s chin and stamina personally, despite Usyk’s lack of legit power.

A great Cruiserweight who should move up slower rather than
getting KTFO and being a one payday wonder.
The judges will not very likely give him a points win over Joshua.
Nah mate, Usyk earned his cred by cleaning out the CW division. Witherspoon was a stay busy comeback after injury fight. It only ment he was fighting fit.
And doesn't history tell us that if you can mop up all the cruisers, your bound to have a decent run at HW ?
Especially when it is weak outside the top 3. There is a good chance AJ will beat Usyk, no problem for Usyk, getting another mandatory shouldn't be that hard given the HW B level guys he would have to beat to get another shot.

I would prefer Usyk to have another fight before the big one with AJ but he is capable of nullifying opponents with pressure. AJ has to go back to terminator mode to beat him. Also Usyk might not have heavy hands but his body punches are powerful.

Yes, let the old bastard get his shot.
Usyk needs to fight a another top dog or somebody who will give him a real test at the HW.
Actually, from a legacy perspective, fighting Pulev will bump AJ up a bit in the all time standings, beating Usyk ( if he can) will probably put AJ into the top 25 all time heavies.
Can't argue with that.
