Usyk would outbox Ike confidently. Ibeabuchi had a close win on points over Tua. Usyk's chin isn't worse than David's one for sure, while his boxing skills are miles better. He is much more durable and effective than Byrd. No way Ibeabuchi wins this.

If Chisora gave the Ukrainian problems I have little doubt in my mind that the president would have forced Usyk to fire on all pistons just to be able to eek out a controversial decision.

Man, this one is something else ! I like Ike . I agree with the comment about Chisora giving Usyk trouble and that doesn't bode well for him against Ike.

That's become a popular myth.

Lol, Chisora made the Ukrainian look pretty bad. A lot of people were certain that Usyk couldn't beat Joshua on the basis of it.

Chisora was able to take a couple of rounds and looked ready to go later on. Usyk toyed with him without taking risks. Those, who didn't know a sh!t about boxing, of course, saw it otherwise and were picking Joshua over Usyk because of that, but I've have been picking Usyk in that matchup even before his official move to HW and I never changed my mind.

i didnt give chisora a round after the 2nd. like chisora's fights with parker (2) and pulev, the official cards were generous to delly. after round 2, chisora was wildly missing and connecting wiith very little. usyk wasnt masterful or anything but pecked away enough to deserve a wide decision

i picked aj over usyk, but not cuz of chisora-usyk. that said, i did notice that against chisora, even when chizz swung and hit usyk's gloves, it still jarred usyk's body.
