Who should Usyk fight next?

[holmcall]

There's already a thread about Usyk at heavyweight, but I guess it's a different question.

Personally I'd like him to face Lebedev, then Noel Gevor (who I thought beat Briedis) and then the winner of the WBSS Cruiserweight season 2 winner. After that he would have entirely cleaned out the division and could make the move to heavy.

It looks likely tho that his next fight will be at heavy, if that's the case I think Povetkin is the perfect opponent.

Me too.

Will he be made emeritus champion if he moves up? Wbc made Bellew emeritus champ so he could chase down a crippled bloated CW at HW.

If Usyk is going to make a proper charge at HW and after unifying the division does he deserve the same status?
