Is Usyk An All Time Great?

Its been a few days since Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury and since the dust has settled the question which many people are asking is if Usyk should be considered an all time heavyweight great? We have a look at the facts which decide this including his undisputed run to cruiserweight and then his undisputed run to heavyweight against fighters such as Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury. We collate the facts to let you decide.

[@Qeutsy]

Hes undefeated and 2x undisputed while taking literally the hardest fights he could and always winning. Usyk is a generational talent

[@jayclean5653]

Not to mention, he always fights guys on their home turf.

[@lasrrrrr]

I think he is an all-time great, cleared out 2 divisions beating every champ, always fighting on enemy territory and beating guys at heavyweight that outsize him by 30+ pounds Thats the definition of pounds for pound

[@supremercommonder]

[@nlcrr1617]

[@supremercommonder]

@@nlcrr1617 only 3 title defences in heavyweight not enough he need to beat fury in there rematch plus Joseph Parker joshua for 3rd time than he be a top 10 heavyweight

[@nlcrr1617]

@supremercommonder why would he have to fight Joshua again when he's already schooled him twice? The point of a trilogy is that the first 2 were close. Usyk won almost every round. You act as if he's been in the heavyweight division his whole career. He's had 6 fights in the division, 4 of which are championship fights and 3 are defenses. If he retires at 40 with 2 title defences each year then he'd be undisputed in two weight divisions, clearing them both out with 10 defences all whilst undefeated. This is what should happen now. Fury rematch -> mandatory defense for the rest unless someone new comes up. His mandatories are likely to include Parker and maybe Zhang and Wilder if they aren't too old by then. 2 more years of title defenses against contenders and he would've solidified himself as top 10 or top 5 heavyweights of all time, top 15 boxers of all time. He doesn't even need to go to 40 years old

[@efrazdede]

And he did all that(I mean a similar effort of same "big fight" numbers) 10 times before... during his amateur career :)))))

[@lasrrrrr]

ironic furys motto is "anytime, any place, anywhere" when usyk is the one that actually lives by that fights in enemy territory all the time, accepts the hardest fights available and doesn't care if he's getting severely underpaid, one of the last real guys left in boxing that will just fight

[@judekaraki1650]

my question is just what else could he have even possibly done during his career to elevate himself further. essentially nothing. He's beaten everyone he could have fought and hes already went up a weightclass and still dominated. what else could the man even do at this point, theres no more weight classes to go up to. If you believe fury is a top 10 heavyweight, then I can't see a world where usyk isnt, and isnt higher on the list. to me it really seems like people have overlooked a possible top 5 boxer (not heavyweight, boxer) of all time because the story doesnt feel anywhere near as appealing as other greats. undefeated two division undisputed champion with arguably the hardest division jump possible, hes that guy.

[@VDViktor]

Definitely top 5 all time. I dont care about some ancient “legendary” boxer that lived 100 years ago, and has a rumoured 60-0 stat fairy tales or some sht. Nor do i care about huge, nature freaks that put on the gloves and just started punching through opponent’s blocks. Thats not boxing, thats just brawling. They fought in a different era, against way less technical and educated opponents. When talkng about all time greats you only need to take their actual boxing skills into consideration, not their records in their respective eras, and Usyk is one of the smartest, technical boxers to ever live.

[@imgresie7268]

love this, I hate when people keep bringing in how great some boxers were in the 20s, all you need to do is watch a tape from these years and you'd realise that the average national champion beats these guys and I think the sport is evolving aswell, you can see most of the heavyweight contenders in the 70s barely any of the skills they do now

[@Akira-uy4yd]

You can make a case, as long as you are talking about heavyweight boxing. Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, Lennox Lewis, Larry Holmes, George Foreman would be my top 5

[@betomens9615]

Totally true. Nostalgia plays a big role in people's mind. The only heavyweight who could be a threat to Usyk is Lewis I think. Apart from Lewis, Usyk would own the resto (Ali, Mike Tyson, Frazier, Norton, Marciano etc). He would even ko Holyfield, who is my favorite boxer ever. I would say the GOAT is either Usyk or Mayweather.

[@tnmblonewolf8799]

He’s definitely up there. He fought the best available, usually in their own backyards. He always looked good doing it, too.

[@efrazdede]

I am following him since the Muhammad Ali cup, I revisited his old fights and still watching him. He is something else, out of place. I am not even talking about his sheer will, his uncomprehensible mastery, his cat-like agility or his ability to soak punches. No his speed. I mean he is unbelievably fast. He is a heavyweight trained alongside lightweights. Tyson is a legendary fighter too and he is fast too. But he is fast for a heavyweigth. Usyk was called "he is too fast for cruiserweight" back in the day. Always, in all matches. Even Tony Bellew told this before the fight. I bet most heavyweights he fought(including his amateur carrier Joe Joyce for example) to this day did not understand what happened to them. Because it needs another level of speciality to entirely analyse his game. I watched and read those, everybody thinks he is a Grand Master. I am not tripping. Because he really is something else. Because he is not just fast. He is conciously fast. He is a master level boxer. He is in ful control of his speed. He is precise. He is an all time great. I've no doubt about that. And his style must be studied. And plus he showed us; in boxing skill beats all. Not size as long as two people are "around" the similar weightclasses ofcourse, not punching power. They all matter ofcourse. But if there is a skill gap between such two people; then on paper, better boxing mastery has the edge. Not the other way around. I told this for months to everyone, no one listened. They said "yeah he is good but AJ/Fury/XXX is too big, "at a certain level" size really really matters. That's why there are weight classes" blah blah :) Naaah, not really. Skill beats size is all. Usyk proved that very clearly.

[@michaeltnk1135]

What makes Usyk’s undefeated and undisputed title so much more impressive is that he was beating up guys way bigger than himself. Realistically, how many heavyweights throughout history would’ve been able to beat Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua? Less than 10 I think

Be ready for the dustiest oldheads in the comments regurgitating the same old fighters as always. Usyk is well on his way to GOAT status

[@imgresie7268]

one thing you didnt include is his amateur career is probably his most impressive feats when he was more of a begginer he was losing fights but once he gained more experience, he hasnt lost 1 fight since 2009, he was an amateur untill 2013 he was an olympic champion, amateur world champion and semi pro world champion, he beat the likes of: beterbiev, clemento russo, Mahammadrasul Majidov, badou jack, Lenier Peró, Nistor, Joyce, tervel pulev, sergiy deryvanchenko, arsen goulamirian, ronald gavril and many more

[@myronkipa2530]

Simply the best

[@ChargersNationBaby]

Yes….. he should also knock wilder out to be the only one to beat all of the top 3 fighters of the late 2010s

[@RedJay326]

He’s an all time great 3 times over. One time for his amateur accomplishments another for his accomplishments at CW then again for HW

[@Secret_Rare_Oreo]

He’s definitely an all time great but I’m worried he did it too quick and has time to ruin his career, like you said who is there left to motivate him to push harder?

GOAT

[@kravmagamaster88]

Usyk enters in a special list of the best fighters in history. He, as already conquered boxing as an amateur and professional. Fighters like usyk are special his skills are not regular to see in a fighter, its an art to watch him fighting.

[@9usuck0]

One of the greatest.
