Klitschko vs. Usyk in Their Prime – Who Wins? Froch Answers

Former champion, now boxing expert, and host of the channel Froch on Fighting, Carl Froch, tried to predict the winner in a hypothetical matchup between Wladimir Klitschko in his prime and Oleksandr Usyk.

"Usyk. Klitschko is very big and strong; we saw Joshua beat him, but that was when he was past his peak. He had an 18-month layoff and it seemed like he wasn't trying very hard.

He knocked Joshua down, and then for some reason stopped throwing punches. Prime Klitschko is a really big, strong, powerful opponent, but Usyk has settled into this weight class and just beat Tyson Fury. You can't bet against Usyk. It would be a wonderful fight, but Usyk would win," Froch said.
