Speaking about the result, Joshua revealed that his motive was not to hurt Usyk. Instead, he wanted to show that he could outbox him.
Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk are set to enter the boxing ring again in a highly anticipated rematch this weekend. While the odds now favor ‘The Cat’, the British heavyweight has seemingly left no stone unturned in preparation for the rematch.
That said, it will be interesting to see if Joshua can avenge his loss to Oleksandr Usyk or if history will repeat itself.
Eddie Hearn wants the winner of Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk 2 to face Tyson Fury
Matchroom boxing promoter Eddie Hearn is hopeful of making an undisputed championship match between the winner of Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk 2 and Tyson Fury.
During a recent interaction with The National, Hearn talked about how he wants to see ‘AJ’ regain the belts from ‘The Cat’ on Saturday, saying:
It is worth noting that Tyson Fury recently reiterated his retirement once again. Moreover, the WBC has given ‘The Gypsy King’ until August 26 to officially make up his mind before vacating the title..
While boxing fans will be hopeful of seeing an undisputed matchup in the future, the ball lies in the court of Fury as of now and it remains to be seen as to whether or not he’ll return to the squared circle for one last stand.
