Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk 2: Fight date, TV channel, tickets and venue

Anthony Joshua is out to avenge his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk, after the Ukranian handed the 32-year-old his second career defeat, when they go head-to-head at the Jeddah Super Dome in Saudi Arabia.

The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was the host to their first bout as Usyk expertly broke down Joshua's game plan to claim, what ended up being, a standard win. And just a matter of weeks shy of a year, the pair meet again in the Middle East on August 20 with reports suggesting Sky Sports will show the rematch after beating DAZN to the rights.

Both fighters will likely have Tyson Fury in their sights after the Gypsy King extended his immaculate record with a knockout win over Dillian Whyte at Wembley Stadium. For Joshua, he will be looking to manage what he did against Andy Ruiz Jr and claim another win in Saudi Arabia.

Matchroom Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn moved to DAZN, last year, with Joshua signing a lucrative deal with the streaming platform in June - in what was a blow for broadcasting giants, Sky. However, as reported by the Telegraph it will now shown on Sky Sports Box Office after signing off on a bid around £28m.

Usyk and the Watford-born heavyweight are expected to share a minimum purse of £100m. And the Team GB Olympic gold medallist will be looking to even the score between the two greats after losing his his WBA (Super), IBF, WBO, and IBO heavyweight titles, last September.
