Anthony Joshua press conference LIVE stream, start time and Oleksandr Usyk updates

Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk will go face to face once more today in London for a press conference to promote their upcoming heavyweight title rematch which will be taking place in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia in August.

They met last week for a press conference in the Middle Eastern country, but tomorrow will see the pair face the UK media for the first time. The two fighters put on an amicable display at last week's press conference, even taking the time to pose for a selfie together.

This time, however, there are likely to be more questions on the topic of the country hosting the fight, following allegations of 'Sportswashing' in relation to Saudi Arabia's human rights record. Joshua addressed the allegations, saying that he does not know what the term means and that he is happy with the hospitality he has received.

This afternoon's press conference is scheduled to start at 2:15pm and you can watch a live stream at the top of the page.

Oleksandr Usyk has emerged as odds-on favourite for his rematch with Anthony Joshua which is set to take place in Saudi Arabia on August 20. Usyk currently holds the WBA (Super), IBF, WBO, and IBO heavyweight titles after beating Joshua in their first fight at the Tottenham Hotpsur Stadium in September 2021.
