    He should buy a front row ticket to David Hayes next fight vs that cruiserweight Bellew fellow and taunt him menacingly Might get a call. HBO had him on for a reason and pushed the heavyweight talk..

    Usyk is big at 6'3" and has a long reach, I can't recall it exactly so I will look it up after I post. But he is having no issues making Cruiser, he will be there a while.

    Edit-reach is 78, should have just went with what I thought, would have been right.

    Yes sadly he may as well do that. What I kept thinking was I can`t believe Bellew beat a guy who beat Mchunu, though it was impossible to find that Makabu fight. May I overrate Mchunu as a boxer, or underrate Bellew as a cruiser, or that was a one off, who knows.

    Whatever Mchunu lacks in stature dude is a crafty defensive fighter. It's just a matter of approach when you do A and B equals C. Hey Bellew also lost to a guy who lost to Darnell Boone in very convincing fashion

    for the record and with respect..Jo Jo Diaz bored the shat outta me.

    Hopkins better stick to his word and go out clean. Always enjoy when you experience a guy 'live' from 1st day to his final bell, all respect . Hopkins earned everything he has.

    Hopkins' physique has taken a dramatic decline, especially from the waist down.

    hopkins is really starting to get his punches landing now, smith jr is certainly bigger and more active, if the scorecards are fair this is going to be close.. I hope b hop pulls it out though
