Former world welterweight champion (up to 66.7 kg) American Sean Porter (31-4-1, 17 KOs) in
interview for local media, commented on the work of the former heavyweight champion (over 90.7 kg) British Anthony Joshua (24-2, 22 KOs) with American coach Robert Garcia and spoke about Joshua’s upcoming revenge against his offender, Ukrainian unified champion Oleksandr Usyk (19- 0.13 KO).
Porter was also asked to talk about his amateur victory over Usyk. Sean said he wanted to make money from it if he found the tape.
Recall that the Usyk-Joshua rematch is scheduled for August 20 in Saudi Arabia. Alexander won his first fight in September last year on points.
Robert Garcia is currently working with Anthony Joshua. How will the rematch with Usyk go?
“I think the Robert Garcia link will work because Joshua has to be the attacker in this fight. If he is on the attack, he will beat Usyk. He is big and he has some skills. I think that in the first fight he failed to realize his size along with his skills. He tried to be a skilled fighter in his attacks and was unable to use his size. So I think they have to work together, he needs to attack, not be afraid to miss and he needs to use his size.
Why is Garcia the perfect trainer for Joshua ahead of Usyk? Expert opinion
– You are one of several guys who have a victory over Usyk in the amateurs.
— [смеётся].
– How did you beat Usyk in the amateurs? How was that fight?
– It was a boxing match. 4 two minute rounds. We fought on a points computer system. Most of you don’t know much about this. I won’t try to explain it now.
It was a very close fight. There was a difference of two points or something like that. It was a close fight, I’ve said it many times already. If I ever see this video, the first thing I will do is contact Usyk, make sure I can post it, and try to make money from it for the two of us. Because 4 two minute rounds is fast, but that fight is great, trust me.
– We need to find him.
– Of course.
Where was this fight? In what part of the world?
— In Chicago.
– I’ll look for it for you. Give me two days and I will find him.
– Yes?
— I know the guys from Chicago, someone must have it.
