    As a man born in the 80's, Usyk is the greatest cruiserweight of all-time. Usyk fought through Glowacki, Huck, Breidis, and Gassiev. 3 of them were undefeated and Usyk beat all of them at away soil!

    Holyfield had Dwight Muhammad Qawi...but Usyk had bloody Briedis, Gassiev, Hunter, Huck, Glowacki (all in their prime). BRIEDIS. The guy could still probably beat every other cruiserweight apart from Opetaia.

      You have a great point. I was a teen in the 80s and Holyfield was my second favourite fighter behind Julio Cesar Chavez and up until recent, I believed he was the GOAT at cruiserweight. However, it is an emotive decision. Qawi, Patkey, Tillman and DeLeon don’t stack against Glowaki, Huck, Breidis and Gassiev. I, sadly, have to give #1 cruiserweight position to Usyk.

    Holyfield is a weird one, because at cruiserweight he had a very poor resume of fighters, but after moving up he had an excellent one.

      Holyfield was a small heavyweight and a dirty fighter. He cheated in the Tyson fights.

    Excellent ratings by Chris.Yep,Holyfield and Uysk are clearly the 2 greatest cruiserweights in history.
    Holyfield vs Usyk is one of my favourite fantasy-fights.

    I think the options should of been
    Novice
    Average
    Good
    Elite
    Goat.
    As I think KSI and jake Paul are novice fighters.

      @@peternut358 I’m not saying CBS will fight opetaia you don’t no that and I don’t no that but opetaia will get finished eventually. He got the win in his last fight but he wasn’t great.
