Oleksandr Usyk reached the peak of his career when he defeated Daniel Dubois in the 5th round on Saturday evening at the Wembley stadium in England. Now, when he is the undisputed heavyweight champion, it is natural that Usyk would like to spend some time to rest, spend some time with his family and think about what he wants to do next.
When he thought about the achievements in boxing-world of the world in a cruise weight, world champion in hefty weight and an invincible record in twenty-four fights, covering almost twelve years of career, we hope that he completed the conclusion that he has achieved everything he has achieved everything as a professional boxer and retirement.
There are still fights in hefty weight. Joseph Parker was appointed a mandatory contender for the WBO Usyk title. In addition, there are rumors that fights with the trilogy can be organized between Usyk, Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua. The second fight with Derecka Chisora was even discussed, which Usyk himself said that he was his most challenging opponent with this weight.
Taking the trilogy first, there would be an argument that the third fight against Fury and Joshua were justified if Usyk lost at least one of his title fights with them. However, this is not the case. Usyk has 2-0 in relation to both of these fighters. In addition, there is no intensive competition between him and Fury and Joshua in the same way between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier when they fought for the third time. Their fight with the trilogy was also justified, because Ali and Frazier won one fight with each other before their meeting in the World Heavyweight Championships in the Philippines on October 1, 1975.
As for the perspective of the defense of Usyk of his world titles before Joseph Parker, there would probably be no demand among fans of the fight for such a duel. For example, this competition would probably not be considered to be enough for the Pay-Per-View transmission. As for the second fight between Utyt and Derecka Chisora, there would be no appetite that people can see how Usyk fights with an opponent, who is widely seen as a journeyman in heavyweight circles.
Oleksandr Usyk should therefore seriously consider whether it is worth continuing to fight. Even if he wins any of these proposed fights, pale compared to his achievement of the undisputed July 19. In addition, the UTYK is now 38 years elderly. At this age, he can still succeed in boxing. George Foreman returned to boxing in heavyweight after a period outside the match to defeat Michael Moorerer and become the WBA and IBF World Heavyweight champion at the age of 45. The question is whether Usyk still has a hunger for fighting. He can only answer this question.
Sport is full of talented athletes, including boxers, who are still competing with the best.
It is certainly better to go to a height with an impeccable heritage. If Oleksandr Usyk retires, he will be invincible as a boxing master in hefty weight. Only Rocky Marciano achieved this distinction. In addition, Oleksandr Usyk will be remembered as one of the great all -time in hefty boxing. He defeated the best, nothing can and will never change it.
