Considering how terrible the heavyweight landscape is, I’d say it would be a spectacular KO of some unknown journeyman that positions them for a title.
That’s just how bad that division is if Usyk retires.
There is also the American vs British “rivalry” that’ll make such mediocre fights happen.

Those wars vs Fury took something out of both men. Neither has looked very good since. Joyce finally had his chin cracked by Zhang after eating many opponents' big punches. The aura of invincibility is gone. Both Wilder and Joyce would do themselves a huge favor by retiring. This is a rough sport and they are getting old. Deontay has done well for himself and doesn't need to do this anymore. Too bad Joe got such a late start, but he should be far from poor.

Wilder was more interested in ayahuasca than in learning good technique and honing his craft. He thought his power was always going to be enough and now he realizes it’s not. But it’s too late, you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.
Should have kept Mark Breland around.

The way Joyce crumbled after Zhang detonated his bomb on his chin was something else.
I wonder what happens when Wilder lands on it.
