Usyk doesn't look to have the power to keep these big tough gits off him and he's 33 when will his legs start to go? He really needed them here. This was against a fellow who's is good but has lost 8 times previously and is 37 in two months...maybe usyk will find it easier v taller guys who won't be able to attack the body quite so easily and there will be good heavyweights who will match up style wise better but I think usyk isn't becoming a real champ at heavyweight, great career for him though.
I think Chisora is the worst style match up for Usyk. A HW with a ton of heart that is very aggressive. Someone like Whyte would probably trouble Usyk a lot also. I actually think that he would have an easier time with AJ because he won’t come forward
Usyk may not have a huge punch but those jarring sharp combos can work well on that physical and mental tightness one fight removed from the roof collapsing. Chisora much more relaxed and 'excepting' the fact he was going to get touched up. Usyk better invest in some sit ups though he was definitely bothered.
