.@Turki_alalshikh wants to make Oleksandr Usyk vs. David Benavidez for the heavyweight championship in 2027, @ringmagazine has learned. Benavidez moved up to cruiserweight Saturday and won two titles with a KO victory of Zurdo Ramirez. Usyk returns May 23 to defend his Ring Magazine heavyweight championship vs. Rico Verhoeven at the Pyramids of Giza. If he beats usyk in 2027 for the heavyweight title will that trump spinks win(s) over holmes ?
Recency bias has done wonders for Usyk. Usyk aint Larry Holmes, and Benavidez sure AS FUCK aint Michael Spinks.
Yeah. Usyk is a great cw, but at HW hes no ATG. Lucky to have came at a moment the division was/is so piss poor. As for the thread topic, benavidez does good for a few rounds, but he's getting break down little by little, and eventually get stopped
