So hed rather fight a pumped up cruserweight rather than a proper HW in Pulev, and this is seen as ducking nobody

Please read above, post 2982

I don't disagree that they are the two best pure boxers but it is different going up against a monster heavy like AJ when you are massively underpowered and undersized. AJ wouldn't come in as light as he was for Ruiz, I would reckon around 245 at weigh in as he would be looking to engage with Usyk as he knows he could walk through his power and blow him away.

Out of his last 5 fights (I cannot count Witherspoon) he has 2 TKOs and 3 PTS wins, all at cruiser. If he isn't KO'ing people at cruiser, he has no chance of KO'ing AJ. And, let's be honest, he would need to win clearly to get a decision against AJ on a Matchroom card (I cannot imagine a decision going against AJ on a MR card unless he was beaten decisively).

Spot on! even though he's a dazn/matchroom fighter, no chance he gets a decision over AJ even if he deserves one.

Usyk would and will box the ears off AJ. He is a superstar and a fucking dude as well

He put a beating on Joe Joyce in the amateurs at super HW
and Majidov who beat AJ but can't see him getting a decision over AJ with matchroom judges. It will be close I think

hopefully he can put another beating on Joyce. Can’t stand the guy

has the charisma of a bowl of bran flakes. Not a fan at all of Joyce either.
Weird him being trained by Adam Booth recently though, complete opposite of a Booth type fighter

Trying to do a little research on UFC. Jon Jones sounds like the guy I would like to follow. When is he fighting next and when is he stepping up to HW?

Fighting Reyes feb 8th I think it is.
Apparently he wanted to move up to HW to fight miocic for the title but the ufc are focusing on a trilogy fight between miocic and Cormier so it will probably be after that.
