Joshua speaks about the rematch between Usyk and Fury
Former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (26-3, 23 KOs) expressed confidence that Oleksandr Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs) will defeat Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) in a rematch. According to the British boxer, our compatriot will again prove his superiority, which will be reflected in the last rounds of the fight.
Joshua said this in an interview with the YouTube channel of the Queensberry Promotions promotion company. The Watford native, who will fight his compatriot Daniel Dubois (21-2, 20 KOs) on September 21, noted that Usyk is excellent at directing the fight in the right direction.
"I think that in the initial rounds of the rematch between Usyk and Fury we will see a notch. And then in the later rounds, Usyk will take over. The Ukrainian is a great fighter, I feel like he's one of the best. That's why I think he will win," Joshua emphasized. .
It should be noted that Anthony and Daniel will fight for the International Boxing Federation (IBF) belt, which Usyk was forced to give up after his victory over Fury on May 18. Later it became known that the IBF left Usyk no choice. This situation angered the head of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), Dana White. The Ukrainian commented on his decision for the first time.
Fury and Usyk will rematch on December 21. The fantastic prize money for the second fight is already known.
Our compatriot shared his expectations from the second fight with Tyson and responded to the accusations of cheating during the fight with Fury on May 18. In addition, Oleksandr commented on the injury he received in the fight.
The Ukrainian announced his radical plan to continue his career after the rematch with Tyson. Usyk named the most difficult moment of the fight with the Briton. Our boxer also spoke frankly about his opponent.
As OBOZ.UA previously reported, coach Serhiy Lapin told what he expects from the rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Tyson Fury. The boxer himself returned to Ukraine and received a gift from the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
