Oleksandr Usyk has Anthony Joshua right ‘where he wants him’, according to highly respected boxing journalist Colin Hart.
Heavyweight world champion Oleksandr Usyk said wounded soldiers in a Ukrainian hospital had urged him to "fight for the country" by facing Anthony Joshua again and that he hoped to bring some joy to the people back home with his rematch against the Briton.
Three fights later, he battled Wladimir Klitschko for the IBF, IBO and WBA (Super) world titles at Wembley stadium.
Oleksandr Usyk, the IBF, WBA and WBO world heavyweight champion, is one of the greatest fighters on the planet but he is not embarrassed to express the fear he felt this year as a soldier in the Ukrainian army. Soon after Vladimir Putin unleashed Russia’s onslaught on Ukraine on 24 February, Usyk and his friend Vasiliy Lomachenko, another of the best boxers in the world, joined the military. But as he patrolled the streets, carrying a machine gun rather than boxing gloves, dread gripped Usyk.
SunSport reported that DAZN had bid £20million while Sky were offering in the region of £15million to broadcast the summer showdown.
Anthony Joshua has revealed that he misses his ‘ferocious’ side as the countdown to his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk continues.
