Who should Usyk fight next?🤔

[Kovalev's "Man Bag"]

Should he rematch Dubois for undisputed, fight Parker who is his WBO mandatory, or fight Kabayel who is his WBC mandatory? All 3 have been on a roll lately and are coming off of impressive stoppage wins over top level opponents. Usyk only has one or two fights left so he isn't going to fight them all. Right now it looks like we'll be getting a Dubois rematch. At his age, and having already accomplished all of his goals, I think he should retire but he isn't quite ready for that yet. If he keeps going it could be a big mistake. Leaving the sport on top and undefeated is a much better way to go out.

Some people think Dubois actually TKOed Usyk. A rematch is needed to get rid of the controversy. Unifying all the belts once again is a bonus.

 

[SuperLuigi]

Just anyone, get him in the ring while we still can. Nobody can beat him, we just need more footage of him schooling dudes.

Those people are desperately reaching. Nobody can know for certain whether Usyk would've beaten the count if the ref had ruled that blow legal. A lot of people think he was milking it myself included. Unifying the belts again would be a bonus but he won't be able to keep them anyway since he only has a fight or two left.

All 3 have earned it. Doesn't matter too much to me.
I dont think it's fair to make Parker have to go through Dubois again after flattening Bakole. At first I was hoping for a quick turnaround since Parker had such an easy night. Dubois obviously ready to go asap too. But Parker said he needs time off and had some injuries.

But now that I think about it harder. Dubois going to be ready first. He has a semi legit gripe with the low blow controversy.
I think he's the best and most dangerous out of the 3. Kabayel was almost stopped and hurt by an absolute shell of a fighter. He should look to not rush back too.

So my vote going towards DDD

Usyk is calling for Dubois so that's likely what we will get next. Unless Dubois goes the AJ rematch route since it's back on the table again. I'd be disappointed if he did. I'd much rather fight for undisputed than fight a guy he just KO'd.

I think the Saudi’s will do Usyk vs Dubois 2 … I would have liked to see Usyk vs Parker

 

[Kovalev's "Man Bag"]

• Kabayel is undefeated and riding a 5 fight KO streak
• Dubois is on a 3 fight KO streak
• Parker is on a 6 fight win streak with his last win by stoppage

Double header

Yeah I like that matchmaking. Usyk vs Parker is probably what I'd prefer too. Dubois vs Kabayel would be a really good match-up as well.

That’s my point: some people think this, other people think that, nobody knows anything. That’s what controversies are about. That’s why we have one.

 

[Hagler]

To me undisputed + controversy make the Dubois fight the most relevant and Parker can fight Kabayel in the meantime for a shot at the winner. I won't complain as far as Usyk fights any of the 3, though.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

I agree Usyk and Dubois would be a great match up.

Whoever he does he fight, (Which I hear is only a couple of fights) I just hope it's the one he wants and he makes tons of money.
He's earned it.

I’d like to see Dubois vs Parker rescheduled, and usyk vs kabayal. Both guys have earned their shot and this way they both get a crack at a world title. Or kabayal vs Dubois and Parker vs usyk but I personally prefer the first suggestion

Winners fight for all 4 belts towards the end of the year

 

[burningspear]

Usyk himself says he'd like Dubios followed by Pereira ? The UFC dont usually com-promote but Usyk has earned the right to enquire, having all but lapped the HW division.

Yeah Dubois was going to get a shot if he beat Parker and then never made it to the fight. I know its said Usyk and Dubois have unfinished business or something but Usyk has already fought AJ and Fury twice each and this would make for another one. His record will look better with new names on it. Agit is probably the least likely to get it but for me would be the most interesting.

 

[Blastbeat]

Dickpuncher Dropout Dubois doesn't deserve another shot at Usyk.
But that's probably what's gonna happen.
Best fight for Usyk right now is Parker. Usyk's still the undisputed king, no matter what the stupid belt organizations say. Dubois has a charity belt that Usyk relinquished. Beating AJ was a great win but he's a paper champ.
Would also love to see Usyk vs Kabayel.

Agreed, I personally think kabayal gives usyk his hardest fight out of the 3. And he’s the guy I’ve been most impressed with recently, outside of usyk and Dubois.

I don’t think it’ll happen either, it’s probably gonna be Dubois/Usyk. I do like kabayal vs Parker as well, but these guys deserve their shots now. Dubois still gets his rematch with Usyk (usyks last fight) as long as they both win

He should retire. Dubios did not earn a rematch

Pereira has a glass jaw and no head movement,it would be a train wreck
