This version of Shavkat vs full-camp Usman

[payton]

Usman is still ranked #2

As much as I think Shavkat will be champ, I still think he needs to go through a full camp healthy Usman.

I think Shavkat would outstrike Usman to win a decision in a 3 rounder. In a 5 rounder, since we never saw Shavkat fighting for 5 rounds, I assume Usman would take that.

How would This version of Shavkat fare against full-camp Usman?

Usman is on a 3 fight skid... and is nowhere near a title shot or even #1 contender...
Let Shavkat send Belal packing... and let Marty sit on a beach and enjoy a few beers...

He stops Usman imo, he stops most of the top guys that don't point fight.

That seems unlikely. Feels like Remember the Name is literally going to force people to remember his name. As of right now he appears to have the best wrestling in the division unless Khamzat comes back. And his striking has been very effective. Plus his pace and cardio.

He gets out wrestled. He’s not tapping Usman out. But Kamaru isn’t engaging enough to warrant interest.

 

[SamuraiBro]

Usman will be 38 soon, has shot knees and hasn’t fought since 2023, Shavkat still beats Usman with a full camp.

 

[FrappeDuRocma]

Usman eats him alive, Shavkat got exposed, he has no elite trait to put Usman in danger.

 

[Xoleth]

Usman has no knees so he cannot wrestle and his striking isn't that good to hang with guys like Shavkat, Garry, MVP, Wboy, JDM, Leon...

Its too hard to gauge Usman with a 3 match losing streak, being inactive for over a year, 37 yrs + injuries piling up.

I guess Shavkat Though I see Shavkat struggling with great wrestlers/big punchers you have to give him the nod

 

[Question]

If the Belal that showed up against Leon last time fights Shavkat, he's got a solid chance of winning IMO
BIG IF, he's already 36 which is quite old for a champion at welterweight

This, Usman's kinda done IMO
He might still be good, but he seems to think he doesn't have a lot left in him which is a cause for concern in terms of how he's still "got it"
