How do you think Usyk compares with Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko in terms of overall skill. I know some make the argument that whilst Wladimir was a dominant force in the heavyweights his style was considered “boring” and people actually preferred Vitali over his brother. Now Vitali went head to head with Lennox Lewis and arguably did better than Lennox until the fight had to be stopped for a cut and then Lennox Lewis ended up retiring after that point so we didn’t get to see a full fight play out.

Usyk is now being compared to the old legends of the past due to his incredible accomplishments so I thought it would be interesting to see if people think Usyk is viewed as “better” than both of the Klitschko brothers in their prime. I know despite the fact they’re all Ukrainian it is hard to compare them as their styles aren’t the same and there’s a height difference too as both the brothers are giants.
