I have been one of Usyk's biggest advocates on this site. I think he can defeat both, with Fury being the more difficult task. Chisora will be a good keep busy fight, and to see where Usyk is injury wise.
I know you have always rated Usyk and thought he would do well at heavyweight but I see no way he could beat AJ and Fury. They are just too big for him.
Time will tell but he is rated too highly by WBO which is politics from Eddie. The injury and stagnation with the average performance in his last fight makes me think I will be right.
You should check out his World Series of Boxing fights, Fa, Joyce and Modugno are compatible to Joshua in size, also watch how he deals with Nistor. Usyk tends to increase his output as the fight progresses, turning up the gears through the rounds. I'm not sure Joshua and Fury can deal with that over 12 rounds. Usyk was the Super Champ at Cruiser for that belt, so they become mandatory when stepping up a division. This is nothing new and has happened many times previously when requested. The injuries are worrying to me, as is age, but we will have to wait and see what happens.
I will check that boxing series out now that you mention it and see how he handled Joyce who I rate higher.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
