As R&B fans await news that Keyshia Cole and Ashanti will indeed go song-for-song on Verzuz, the debate about who is accomplished enough to go up against Chris Brown rages on.

There have been a few names tossed around by fans as formidable opponents for the Indigo singer—most notably Usher—but if you're anticipating an announcement about a Chris Brown Verzuz, you might be wasting your time.
