That'll put Usyk back to Cruiserweight and I'm sure he lost it being incredibly hungry.So according to Usyks wife he has lost 20 pounds since this whole war thing
Some cause for concern.

If Usyk said he couldnt fight this year, would he be stripped?there's still plenty of time to put the weight back on.
there's also enough time between now and then for there to actually be some progress for peace. ukraine will still be in ruins, but at least there might be a ceasefire.
and honestly, while it would suck if he underperformed or lost due to the distractions, it would be completely understandable and wouldn't really matter much. we're boxing fans here and put a lot of value on this, but compared to having your family and friends butchered in war, a boxing match seems kind of irrelevant.

Get AJ's balls, OUT of your fu**ing MOUTH
That has nothing to do with boxing and is a choice he made.I’d hope not. This is a very unique and extenuating circumstance
It's more fun when Joshua is the underdog, this guy has never been terminator material, as much as the British press made him out to be, he has never looked like this stoic, monstrous, knock out destructor that everyone should fear, even shot ass Wladimir almost knocked his ass out yet no matter how many times we see him rag-dolled like that, his fans will still swear by him, it's crazy but good for him.
After the Ruiz disaster, he went on to win a decision in the most cowardly way possible in the rematch and then looked completely outgunned in the Usyk match, at this point there's no reason for me to believe wilder wouldn't knock him out and Fury should be a clear favorite if they fought.
And you know what? I like him more this way, this is what Joshua should be, he is more approachable and relatable this way, instead of making him out to be an unbeatable superhero, make him the underdog, rocky type guy, who against all odds is trying to get his glory back against a couple of monsters clearly favored over him.
Anyway, Joshua is very good but Usyk is better, it's that simple, Usyk is also better than Fury but Fury but Fury is smarter than Joshua and knows how to move and use his size better, Joshua's size does him barely any benefits against Usyk. I think he gets knocked out this time.
Personally not a fan of this situation, Usyk should not be fighting given what is happening in Ukraine. If Joshua is ever gonna win it will be now.
Only plus side is we may see Tyson Fury punch Joshua's face in once and for all but I doubt AJ would get in the ring with Fury.
Would love to see Wilder flatline Joshua aswell. Again good luck getting him in the ring with Wilder.
I don't see how this fight comes together, Usyk's in a fucking war zone ffs.
Exclusive: Boxing - Usyk mounts Ukraine relief effort ahead of Joshua fight"I cannot reveal everything. I cannot open my cards," he said. "One of the hints is that I'm going to change my stance or my position."
For the love of god please let usyk derail the AJ train once and for all. They cant keep pumping him up to 'the star' and play the he reinvented himself card all over again.
He got beat, simply not the best of his era.
If by average you mean a top fighter then that's accurate. A couple losses doesn't undo what he's accomplished in his career. He still has the best résumé in the division and by quite some distance.AJ is a very average fighter
