According to former world champion, now Sky Sports analyst Johnny Nelson, heavyweight Anthony Joshua will not be easy to take revenge on August 20 in Saudi Arabia from Oleksandr Usyk and regain the IBF, WBA and WBO titles. But the Briton is able to do it, despite the fact that in the last round of their fight last fall, Usyk tormented him like Tuzik a heating pad.
“It’s not an impossible task, but a difficult one,” Nelson said. “When he lost to Ruiz, everyone said, ‘He’s done.’ He was written off. And he came back and said: “I have to change my tactics, and then I will win.” That’s what he has to do in this fight too. He was confused by the left-handed style, his jab, and all this made him doubt himself. He was bad on his feet and unbalanced because he wasn’t sure about the punches he was going to throw.”
According to Nelson, Joshua “has to defend his fight.”

“He outwitted himself instead of doing what worked for him in the past, which brought him to this stage in his career,” the expert said floridly.

Recall that Nelson recently said that Usyk is supposedly an average peasant.
The former unified heavyweight champion does not exclude that Joshua will again lose to Usyk and end his career.
