Usyk is a lifelong athlete with supreme discipline, if he’s a natural cruiser and is comfortable at that weight then why wouldn’t he go back down? Multiple interviews stating it’s tough for him to maintain the weight.
Also, I don’t see him hanging around getting beat like RJJ, too stoic, nowhere near the level of ego as many boxers. One of the best champions (in any sport) of this generation.
All boxing fans love him
Disagreeing with a 2 x Undisputed champion 😂
What it means is even usyk has a huge ego.........
I'm going to say it because I am an Usyk fan and have been one for a long time yet people act as if we don't exist. Also, it is annoying when Canelo, Ryan and Tank fans do it so ...
USYK IS THE FACE OF BOXING! =)
1.5 million would 3 million if you included the people that illegally streamed
More probs
It was reported 20 Million watched illegally lol
Tens of millions of people worldwide watch all the big boxing fights on streams. I would say a maximum of 5% of people watching are the ones who pay to view it.
@@Inmyownleague to be honest I don’t blame them because I was paying £19.99 a month for DAZN and still have to pay extra for the big fights and they just put the subscription up to £24:99 it’s rediculous. I think it’s fair to say I will be cancel my subscription and watching at the pub in future
Usyk said he finds it hard to maintain the weight cos he has to drink so much water and eat a lot of bananas.
Love him but everyone knows that's not how you build weight or maintain it 😂
@@t.d6379yes it is. I have to drink tons of water and eat certain foods to maintain weight. It's not a one size fights all.
@Tommy-pz2yc drinking excess water makes you lose all your water weight and you become lighter and eating lots of bananas is not the "certain foods" you're alluding too though 🤣 Banan isn't the staple of a mass gaining diet!
You just made that shit up. He never said anything remotly resembling what you claim. He has a dietetitian and its easy for him to maintain his weight as he is constantly in training. He maintains correct weight and form all the time. Most boxers are too lazy too put inbthe world and their weight fluctuates. This is why they often resort to steroids to help them nikt up, lose weight and build power.
And a healthy dose of 💉 and that’s not to say it’s only Usyk, all top sportsmen are taking something.
Usyk is massive here in the UK team Fury didn't realize that that's why they never fully could avoid him because public pressure built up
No it’s because millions hate fury n his lies plus his ducking all his life
On the 3 knock down rule, usyk stated that fury was his toughest fight to date and said he never felt such intense pain! Rematch is going to be interesting!
I thought from round 4 to 7 that Fury was going to take it away and Usyk finally met someone too big for him but damn Usyk goes into second gear. If Fury can quit drinking and get a better gas tank then maybe the rematch will be different.
He was talking about the 2nd uppercut in round 6 which impacted his tooth implant. You can see his reaction immediately after it lands. He did say Fury was his toughest fight and said about his reach and how he's difficult to fight being unorthodox and throwing shots from his waist.
Think the narrative of how hurt he was is overplayed the same way it was in 2nd Joshua fight.
Rematch is going to be interesting, wonder how Fury approaches it as he now knows Usyk can absolutely finish him if he's not careful.
It was hust the one uppercut, n he said fury reach advantage makes it very hard
He didn't say he never felt such pain, but he said it was painful.
He said chisora hits harder, his punch felt like railroad rail
Bakole vs Anderson is a great fight. The Heavyweight division is in a golden era now.
That's easy work for bakoli - Anderson struggled badly with Charles martin
Ppl don’t understand Usyk. He’s as pure a fighting man as we have ever seen.
If legacy was his primary motivation he would retire.
$120,000,000 in just PPV is crazy! People say Fury don’t have a tight grip on boxing!!
Lol it never did that most of the ppv buys were uk purchases £24.99 = $31.79. It was around 1.2m uk buys the rest of the world made up 0.3m buys.😂😂😂 nowhere near $120m
@@Inmyownleague still crazy money, more than alot of people are pulling in
@GhostonTH-cam201x $50m yes if you read the report $50m in ppv sales $40m in sponsorships $3m gate receipt.

Another great video Ade. Much love from Canada 🇨🇦
Another great vid Ade. Excellent point about boxers getting out at the right time....blokes like Lennox, Froch, Bellew, Groves etc are so articulate now and have gone on to have excellent careers in the media after hanging up the gloves.
Who remembers when Eddie was telling us Clenelo wants to fight Usyk 😂
Bivol saved boxing around that time because the Canelo hype was getting way too ridiculous.
Wish that would have happened …
Usyk totally school him every round and win a split decision
Understandable - you know it's big when your brother and mother (who don't care about boxing) want to watch. It was the kind of fight that you get butterflies for and I still get extremely excited when I watch back their entrances, particularly Usyk's.
Interesting comments on Bakolie v Anderson because bookies have Anderson as quite a warm favourite
This is the part where boxers really miss. When to stop. I think its an identy thing. They invest so much of there time, energy and life for the sport. Its hard to let go, the number of boxes that end up leaving the legacy in bits becuase they cant find a place for themselves outside of the sport is crazy. Its deeper than the money i think. Its a case of if im not a boxer, who am I? Usyk has been a boxer his whole life. The more invested someone is the harder it is to walk away from, but ifnyou dont you leave on your back eventually..this is the game.
This is why I have so much respect for Joe Calzaghe. Stepped away at exactly the right time. Plenty were pushing for him to try and top Rocky Marciano's 50-0, but he knew his body wasn't able to anymore, and stepped away on top of his game with an intact legacy
Turki is planning Usyk vs Beterbiev providing Beterbiev beats Bivol. What a narrative, amateur rivals (3 fights). Nearly 800 combined fights between them including amateur records, both European Gold Medalists, World Gold Medalists, Olympians. Usyk undisputed at cruiser and heavyweight, Beterbiev undisputed at light heavyweight, Russia vs Ukraine… the list goes on
He wouldn’t be losing 23 lbs of muscle, he’d be losing 10 lbs then dehydrating the rest
It's never all muscle. This aint bodybuilding. He can definitely shred the weight
Ade has good insight of boxing. 🥊
I do think Usyk should retire after the Fury rematch but I can see why cruiserweight is a good move if he carries on boxing. He has to work very hard at heavyweight, he has to move so much in the ring and has to fight like the smaller fighter (which means always being in punching range of your opponent.) His speed and footwork could slow down as he ages.. he will have height and reach advantage at cruiser so he will have more options to win and could box like a bigger man.
That is an excellent number of buys, considering how streaming is now ubiquitous--some paper reported that 20 million people streamed the fight. Usyk did talk about going back to cruiserweight, but I think that's nonsense. I think he fights the rematch with Fury, wins, and retires...there's nothing left for him to accomplish, he's been there/done that at cruiserweight, and he has tens of millions of pounds in the bank...
So you think you know more about what Usyk plans to do than Usyk does , okay...
@@dontbewoke Yes. I think--like Paulie Malignaggi--that Usyk is trolling with talk about going back to cruiserweight. I said he "probably" fights one more time...and I hope that indeed is the case...
@@cantilever Paulie Malignaggi thought Fury would win , don't rate him at all as a pundit and I certainly don't think he knows more about Usyks future than Usyk does either.
@@dontbewoke I rate him far more highly than you. Time will tell...
Big fights at cruiserweight for him. Opetaia, Gilberto Ramirez & possibly beterbiev if he moved up to cruiserweight. Uysk looks fleshy at HW so can easily make cruiserweight.
He is turning 38 soon ! It will be harder for him to go back at Cruiserweight.
Absolutely no point. Rematch Fury then call it quits
Nice to see you doing so well Ade
He’s not fully grown into the heavyweight division. Its harder for him to keep weight on than lose weight
Not fully grown into the division. I’ve been around him and met him about 20 times..sat with him, that man is a heavyweight
@@AdeOladipo1hes definitely a heavyweight lol
Any person over 15 stones is a heavyweight
A natural heavyweight gains weight when they dont train. Usyk loses alot of weight when he doesn’t train. His body is rejecting heavyweight mass
Hes definitely a fully fleged heavyweight just not a natural heavyweight so its difficult to maintain it but even heavyweight some times struggle to keep at there optimum fight weight.
Some can lose it some can gain it. Tyson fury is the perfect example hes always up and down
My man Ade doing his thing. Always appreciate the videos. A nice fella
Go down to bridger vs okolie then clean up wba super crusier
1.5 million is insane.
Every one was streaming 😂😂😂😂
If the numbers are true, great for all involved.
1.5m PPV’s I’d have thought that’s a bit low for the first undisputed for 20+years, Joshua Klitschko did that back in 2017
The market has changed dummy
I believe Vergil is fighting Bohachuk (WBC interim champ)
is 1.5m just england what about rest of the world?? or is that it.
1.5m for an undisputed heavyweight fight, first in 25 years , imo its pretty poor
100%
At least people didnt have to sit in the morgue ringside
When you think of how many people watched this on free stream, he payperview numbers were amazing!
@@tatuco8 Didn’t AJ v Klitschko do more? That wasn’t for legacy undisputed, also AJ was fighting an older Klitschko that was coming off a loss!
@@TyanAstonBoothJoshua v Parker did 1.6m ppv buys in the uk alone
Just watched the Bakole Takam fight now - Bakole fought like an orthodox Zhang, so I agree Ade, if he comes in around 270 he'll break Anderson down and stop him. Real Big Baby is far too prone to pulling back in a straight line with his chin in the air, and doesn't seem to sit on his shots enough to really hurt people. He also doesn't seem to be about the life either, so I question his temperament when a big old lump like Bakole puts it on him.
Love your commentary Boxing Brother from another Mother 🥊😎🙌🏽
If Anderson gets past Bakole he is ready for everything. Big If, though.
Martin Bakole has the best accent in Boxing 😂 he's hilarious
Usyk is the greatest fighter that has ever lived, achieving what he did in the amateurs and then becoming a 2 x undisputed champion in the toughest divisions, with a massive weight disadvantage and on top of that the man's undefeated👏👏👏G.O.A.T🙏
“Morning Peeps” - afternoon Ole!
Great words as always ade your skinning g
Huge question mark against Jai,he should’ve taken out Bradis but ended up hanging on to scrape a split decision win.
Jared Anderson making big mistake i think.
Be a great win
@@joshd790 brilliant name on his resume! But maybe a bit early for it. Big step up
@@crazycarper3780 yes definitely I think like it’s a step back for Martin he should of thought maybe Parker or dillian
@joshd790 yeah I like Whyte vs Bakole that be good fight there is bad blood there aswell
Great numbers 1.5 for the ppv but which platform was all that 1.5 on or was that number from all the platforms combined
Maybe get 4 belts at bridgerweight. Could also give validity to the division.
there are only 2 belts at Bridgerweight aka Super Cruiserweight: WBC and WBA. IBF and WBO aren't fucking with that division yet.
But yeah, Usyk would be deadly in that weight class; it's pretty much tailor-made for him.
This must be incorrect. For the first undisputed heavyweight fight in 25 years I expected way more. AJ Vs Parker did 1.8 million. AJ Vs Klitschko did 1.6 million. AJ Vs Ruiz 2 did 1.5 million.
Unless it did 1.5 in the Uk alone!
He will beat Fury again in December. No point pretending otherwise or making excuses.
Usyk is just too good. Also I can see why he would want to move down to Cruiserweight and dominate that division again.
He has nothing left to prove.
Greatest of this era Usyk and one of the all time greats.
For me he is the greatest. Genius.
Connor does more ppv s than this !
No great should leave undefeated! A great must struggle to return after the adversity of defeat. Let’s hope Usyk continues until he is exhausted of the journey
Let’s face it tho, who else is left for him at HW??
Bakole vs Zhang would be a great fight too in December or so.
Pl clarify 1.5M in UK or US or both so far
It’s more about why he wants to stay around; it’s not for money, probably not for legacy…he likely just love what he does. He lives the life. So regardless of what happens, he’s staying in the ring for the right reasons
Resume = CV to British people , or British people other than Ade apparently.
Was this just on TNT?? I was shocked to see this was part of your package on DAZN but PPV for the 5vs5… I reckon Usyk VS Opatia takes place at some point, let’s be honest he weighed 223 with jeans, his chain and Rolex on haha
1.5 mil definitely possible. especially if that is a global or crossmarket number.
Good morning brother, from Baltimore Maryland
Shithole
I think Usyk feels the power of these bigger heavyweights and that might be why he's feeling the move back down. I'm not saying he's scared or not good enough because he clearly is, but he has been hurt by the big guys
We will see a trilogy.
Not if Usyk wins the rematch.
Considering fury’s purse was apparently $86m and usyks was $26m pretty poor ppv to be honest.
Crazy you question usyk when he’s only ever done what he says . He clearly said he doesn’t want to retire and also said he struggles keeping at heavy weight . He’s not the sort to chat bs
bang on ade, yes he coul fight zhang, or parker dubois again anderson but hed have to fight poorly to lose. whats the point he had claimed undisputed win the rematch and for me go into the movies and enjoy your life. he has been boxing since he was a kid.
Why would you doubt it’s possible? … more importantly why would you care?
Ade. You forgot what Mike Tyson said etc etc????
He could become bridgerweight undisputed champ pretty quick
Usyk wants to grow back to cruiserweight I think he likes being more slimmer
Ade did you watch recent videos in which Michael Moorer was talking about how much he payed on a 10 million dollar fight? 33% to a manager, 10% to a trainer 25% to a promoter and on top of that he payed for everything else, the camp, hotels, sparring partners etc and then pays his tax on top. He says he's flat broke today. Do fighters pay managers and promoters that much today?
Go to bridgerweight and unify.
Not really that many PPV for what was at stake, AJ got more against Parker!
Usyk said he has to eat loads to be a heavyweight. He can't be arsed. With regards to retirement, would you ask an artist like Michaelangelo to stop just because he made the statue of david? No, let the man work.
Maybe he drop down to 215lb and fight for the WBC bawbag belt and become a 3 weight undisputed champion
"Usyk should hang the gloves if he beats Fury in December. What else is for him to win?"
He needs to reign for a period and sweep the entire division in order to be considered one of the greatest in boxing history. There are more than 10 boxers who had a dominant reign.
Otherwise he wont make it to the top 10 all time. Ppl will say well he was good but he won the belts and quit while the other great champions dominated for 10 years.
So yeah - Usyk needs to stay in the heavyweight for at least 2 more years. I think he still has 3-4 fights at the absolute top. If not more. So THEN he will be in the top 10 all-time maybe even top 5.
(I don't like the idea of going down to cruserweight)
Lol Anthony has triple the amount of following on social media and still holds the record for uk ppv sales.
Fury v Wilder 2 outsells all of those that AJ did
@michaelrb9837 lol fury vs wilder 2 did 800k ppv buys, it generated more money as usa ppv is more expensive but that fight cost a fortune with the level they went to promote it. It just about broke even.
@@Inmyownleague 1.2 mill plus 800k from UK. Either way it’s generated more money than anyone of Joshua’s fights as Joshua’s biggest gate was 9 mill cope
@michaelrb9837 no the total worldwide sales was about the same as fury usyk. Nevertheless Joshua has made more money than fury in his career to date, so why does AJ care. AJ's had more stadium fights, more fights in saudi etc.
@@Inmyownleague It’s obvious you don’t know much. Fury already sold out 100k at Wembley AJ hasn’t. He also was paid 150mill his last fight. AJ hasn’t. AJ not a big star anymore not what he used to be he has being pulling lower numbers than Fury for ages. His last fight drew 4k PPv
Usyk v Beterbiev at cruiserweight
Hear me out I think Josep Parker is a great match for Usyk and he can definetly win that fight
Must be a record for ppv
Usyk is taking bollox he'll retire after fury it's like tyson saying he'll have another 10 fights
Usyk doesnt wanna eat so much he said
Think you’re off the mark here Ade. I don’t think Usyk will go back down because as you said he’s been there and done it plus better now. However Usyk could drop 20lbs just by eating 3 meals a day instead of 4 with his shakes. He’s been eating himself to 220lbs. You’re normally on the money with weight opinions but here I think you are giving usyks extra 20 lbs too much credit. It’s water and over eating. He doesn’t like eating as much he’s said it for years.
Everyone enjoyed watching Usyk beat Fury.
Ok, I really like usyk, he's a great fighter. And he has a great legacy already, but for true legacy surely he has to make a few defences?
Sorry but Spence Jr vs Crawford was the biggest US card recently, however this is a fantastic card regardless.
Pretty much he’s completed the game of boxing, but……the one thing he wants to accomplish is not in his hands. He most likely wants an outgoing stadium fight in Kyiv. Until a ceasefire happens and planes start flying again, that can’t happen, and he probably wants to stick around a bit just in case.
Also there are no big paydays at Cruiserweight. Opetaia isn’t a big star yet.
No paydays at cruiserweight …
Saudi money 💰 jai been getting the bag…
Weights don’t matter to Saudi it’s
Great fights that matter
@@DavidGriffiths-mv1nw in comparison to paydays at Heavyweight these are peanuts.
Turki uploads all of the fights to his youtube channel by the way.
Do u know what happened to the last generational talent that went back down from heavyweight trimming off muscle - turned into a guy without any stamina or punch resistance - the very very great roy jones junior getting beat by any one who went close to his chin
I hate Broner. And as an avid Usyk fan I totally agree that he should retire after dispatching the Gypsy Queen, again. Certainly will miss him from boxing, though.
1.5m buys... Just enough to pay for half of furys take home XD
What did AJ v ngannuo did on ppv
Usyk goes down, He won't be the same fighter again. Every time guys add muscle go up and then come back down, they decline massively.
Also IBF should strip Usyk. He has no intention of ever defending that belt
While Ukraine are at war, Usyk will continue to fight in his countries honour and to solidify their resolve…
Imagine usyk became double undisputed...WOW, is that possible??thoughts...
I agree, if Usyk beats Fury again he should retire. He is the best heavyweight of the modern day and one of the very best boxer of all time.
Wait - I thought Tsyzu can’t fight
It's weird (and sad) how much hate Jared Anderson gets, he's only 24. Same happened with Dubois. Jared hasn't even been beat yet as well. Don't know what others see but I see the same promise in him - very talented and came through a big test with Martin. Gosh imagine if Cunningham/McDermott didn't trouble a young Fury? Imagine if Ruiz didn't knock out AJ...
Martin is bang average though worse than average. That performance is very worrying imo. Bakole A big favourite in that fight.
@@eazyollie9370not for me.
The problem is you think Usyk is like Fury. He is not. When he says something he means it.
Ade I don't think you listened well to the interview, he is struggling to maintain that weight because of he's lifestyle.. He doesn't drink or eat the normal/natural way he does, he's basically forcing himself to eat and drink water more to stay at heavyweight.
Aj has got 3 ppvs over 1.5m
I thought bridgerweight would be perfect for him it's a nonsense division but that weight cut at this age doesn't sound good.
Opetaia vs Usyk ends in a Usyk win what's the point.
A great fight …. That’s the point …
