That is hysterical, and unfortunately pretty much true.

Parker should be the first test for Usyk, followed by Whyte/Chisora winner. At that point, if he succeeds, he should fight a belt holder.

I'm not sure Joe Hanks would agree with that assessment :D

No neither are setting any land-speed records but they both have other qualities to off-set that. I'm not saying either is going to win a world title but they both have a seat at (ok, near) the top table for a reason.

If he's got belief in himself he'll fight someone like Whyte, Chisora, Povetkin or Parker.

Completely pointless fighting anyone below the top 15 or so. Lose and the heavyweight campaign is over before it's started. Win and you don't really learn anything about where you need to be.

He's a 33yr old champion, not a novice.

This should've been a poll with four or five fighters on it.
