Will this happen or AJ get rid of the WBO?

How about AJ drops the WBO, Usyk wins the vacant WBO to become omg 2 weight world champ.

Then big time HW UNIFICATION, AJ VS UZZY :yay:

Would it not be better to jump on Usyk now, before he finds his feet in the division? Sort of like that guy who edged Lomachenko because it was Loma's second pro fight. Throw Pulev step aside money plus a gimme on the AJ/Usyk undercard. Pulev's always going to be beatable. Usyk might only be beatable for AJ a little while (if at all).

I'd say Pulev would be more likely to take step aside money than Usyk. The thought of Usyk vs AJ in a unification bout would be more salivating though.

Did nobody else think Usyk didn't look all that in his first fight at heavyweight ?

Suppose we were spoilt by his performances at cruiser .

Still unproven at HW to me. I give Chis a fair shot.

He did what he could vs a limited opponent, toyed with him. What should he have shown?

Beats Chis widely I think, all wrong for Chis

Its an odd fight, Usyk stilll very much an unkown quantity at heavyweight.

Can Joshua knock him out with a jab, or is one big right hand all thats needed?

Can Usyk avoid the power and box Joshua's ears off?

Either way, i'm not very intreagued by the prospect of this fight, yet.
