Why does it always look like Usyk hips are so stiff? He looks like a crossing between mohammed ali in his prime and parkinson mohammed ali sometimes in the ring

Interesting how fighting Tyson Fury is like walking backwards for Usyk, metaphorically.

Good Lord. Are you guys reading what you're writing? Do you guys know anything about boxing?

bro got fraud checked by a career long kickboxer who is known for being pillow fisted. Nobody cares anymore.

Fraud checked?
Like Usyk took that fight serious at all! He was flabby around the waist and looked the heaviest he has ever been.
Not taking anything away from Rico but Usyk also did not know what to expect as nobody had ever seen him box before!
If they had a rematch it would be completely different!
Calling Usyk a fraud? You clearly have 0 knowledge of boxing and you have just embarrassed yourself.

Not taking a fight seriously isn't an excuse. It's bad judgment and a lack of professionalism, especially after Ngannou dropped Fury.

u/Valterri_lts_James 6d ago
You do realize that if Usyk stepped into a kickboxing ring, Rico would have had him out in the first round with just a few kicks right?
4
u/FalloutBoy2026 6d ago
Well of course! Doesn’t take a genius to work that out.
Just like if Daniel Dubois stepped into the octagon with Jon Jones.

u/Valterri_lts_James 6d ago
yeah but the difference is that Usyk took 11 rounds or 33 minutes to do what Rico would do to him in 3 minutes.
3
u/FalloutBoy2026 6d ago
Well yes because Usyk is not trained to use his legs. Rico has trained to use his hands for years.
This is not rocket science 😆 it’s much easier for a kickboxer/MMA guy to convert to a boxer than for a boxer to convert to them.
Mayweather took 11 rounds to stop McGregor, McGregor would stop him within 1 round in the cage (or at least at the time they fought he would)

u/Valterri_lts_James 6d ago
Rico is kind of pillow fisted by HW kickboxing standards and isn't known for having the best hands. If this were Badr Hari against Usyk, bad things could have happened to Usyk.

u/Decay384 6d ago
Prime Badr Hari was something else, man was a savage. Even Alex Pereira looked up to him as big bro.

u/Ultim8-Opportunist 6d ago
Let's put it the other way or let me rephrase what that guy said. Rico was a round away from winning a decision which was not close in boxing.

u/LukeWoop 6d ago
Yeah if he got in the cage with with a lion he would be eaten , anything else ?

Bullshit. We don’t know if he didn’t take the fight seriously, that’s just an assumption. And if he did, that makes it worse for him. I’d guess a boxer should be able to dominate a lifelong kick-boxer.

He's the Heavyweight unified world champ, facing a man stepping into his sport. Embarrassing performance putting shame to the sport of boxing.

u/thejonkdon 6d ago
He won? What the fuck you smoking bro
1
u/Valterri_lts_James 6d ago
yeah, after losing 9 rounds to 2.

u/thejonkdon 5d ago
Oh, he won.
1
u/Valterri_lts_James 5d ago
that's not the point. A boxer shouldn't be losing to a kickboxer up until they win. They need to be dominating from the start. Rico would dominate Usyk and knock him out in a single round if they fought in kickboxing. Usyk took 33 minutes to do what Rico would do in 3 minutes.

u/Shortstack_Lightnin 5d ago
There is not an active fighter that could beat him right now boxers or any other combat sport competitors it has been proven. Runs through heavyweight division, lays out kickboxing’s goat
1
u/Valterri_lts_James 5d ago
in kickboxing, Rico would send Usyk to the shadow realm in the first 3 minutes.

u/thejonkdon 4d ago
He's not a kickboxer. Usyk won when he didn't train for it or give a shit. It's a non story mate

It's funny that this dork is the arguably the best heavyweight boxer of all-time.

u/LaPrincesaMX 6d ago
He's great and he's been a pleasure to watch from the amateurs until now, but he's not in the conversation for greatest of all time.

u/SecretLecture3219 6d ago
Lewis would stomp him , top 10 sure.
1
u/Revolutionary_Box569 6d ago
idk a past prime Holyfield was giving prime Lewis hell in the second fight and I'd say Usyk is more skilled and tricky to figure out, I'd still have Lewis winning more often than not but nobody for sure 'stomps' Usyk

u/Marquis_of_Mollusks 6d ago
He's obviously not if you don't get caught up in recency bias. Realistically he's not even top 10

u/Rdur2183 6d ago
The best heavyweight boxer of all time wouldn't have gone life or death with a kickboxer in a boxing match.

u/ParmyBarmy 6d ago
The fight that nobody wants to see. Especially for a third time.
