Oleksandr Usyk vs Rico Verhoeven might have mainstream curiosity, but a lot of boxing fans just don’t seem fully sold on it.
Many see the fight as more of a crossover spectacle than a real heavyweight challenge for Usyk. Verhoeven is one of the greatest kickboxers ever, but with only one professional boxing match on his record, plenty of fans feel the outcome looks predictable before the opening bell.
That’s why the reaction online has been more frustration than excitement. A lot of fans would rather see Usyk facing a proven heavyweight contender while he’s still at the top of the sport.
Even with the WBC title officially on the line, the WBA recognizing it as a title defense if Usyk wins, and a $59.99 PPV price tag in the U.S., many still see the fight as a tough sell.
Fabio Wardley even called it “not a genuine challenge.”
Are fans being too harsh on this fight, or is the lack of excitement completely justified?

Oscar De La Hoya has questioned Canelo Alvarez’s next fight 👀🥊
Speaking to Fight Hub TV, De La Hoya hit out at the planned September bout vs Christian Mbilli, saying it’s more about money than legacy.
“Mbilli, come on. I just don’t like the fight… I’m just not a fan of that.”
He also criticised the location of the fight in Saudi Arabia, saying fans deserve big events in Las Vegas instead.
De La Hoya even suggested Canelo is nearing the end of his career and picking safer fights:
“Every fighter has his peak… he’s a few fights away from retirement.”
Do you agree with him on this? 🤔👇

Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk 3 could still happen 👀🥊
Promoter Eddie Hearn has not ruled out a trilogy fight despite Usyk already holding two wins over Joshua.
Usyk and Joshua have even been seen training together in recent times — but Hearn says rivalry still matters in boxing.
“Part of AJ would always love to fight Usyk because he’s got beat twice… and same with Fury.”
Joshua returns in July against Kristian Prenga, with a long-awaited Tyson Fury clash also still being lined up.
Could we actually see AJ vs Usyk 3 down the line? 🤔👇

Andy Ruiz Jr says he’s finally ready to return to the heavyweight division after nearly 2 years away from the ring 👀🥊
Speaking to FightHype, the former unified heavyweight champion revealed he wants a comeback fight first before pushing for another world title shot.
“I want to have an eliminator, and then I want a title shot.”
Ruiz admitted he needs to “test the waters” again after long inactivity and recovering from hand injuries, but says he’s been training hard and feels ready to make another run at the top.
“I’m coming back, baby. I’m coming back, and you guys are going to see.”
Ruiz shocked the world in 2019 when he stopped Anthony Joshua to become unified heavyweight champion, but has fought only a handful of times since.
