WBC belt holder in the same weight British Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs)
already knows the name of the winner of this fight: “Who will win? I’ll give you a brutally honest answer. So. Until Joshua comes to me. Until he gives the go-ahead for me to prepare him for fights, he will not succeed.”
“Only I will teach him how to become a real heavyweight. Only I will teach him how to box all 12 rounds. Only I will teach you how to beat small middleweights Usykov. Only with me will he win. But since he made a different decision, he will not see victory. Two or three rounds and it’s over. If he wants to resurrect his career, then let him turn to me – a dude who has not lost a single fight in heavyweight, ”Fury said.
Fighter promoter Frank Warren (queensberry promotions) also joined the game of the ward: “Do you know why we are ready to help Joshua? Because it hurts us to watch him get beaten up again. Well, what can he change in a rematch? I thought that in the first fight Joshua would be able to keep him on the jab due to anthropometry, but it turned out that even in this he is inferior. It was clear that Usyk could knock him out. I’m sure that’s what will happen in the rematch.”
For the second fight, Joshua will be trained by American specialist Robert Garcia. He stated on the eve of the rematch: “I love such challenges.” The promoter of the British says that it was Usyk who insisted that the rematch with Joshua take place with the Saudis.
