Fair play to Usyk. For practically every fight he's had in HW he's been tipped as under-dog, with people saying that the strength, size, and power of the the heavyweights in the division would be too much for him. Every time he's been proven wrong.

Obviously, there will be a rematch, because apparently boxing is WWE now, but hopefully people now put respect to Usyk's name, as the first undisputed champ since Lewis, and the man that dominated two weight divisions.
