Legendary Welsh fighter Joe “Italian Dragon” Calzaghe is “not sure” American coach Robert Garcia is the “right guy” for Anthony Joshua’s (24-2, 22 KOs) camp, who intends to use him to get even with Alexander last year on August 20 Usyk (19-0, 13 KOs).
In conversation with
Boxing Social the Briton said that “you need to wait and see the fight.” Previously, he was very impressed with Usyk’s victory.
“I think it was time for him to change something, so, in general, this is the right idea. But whether Garcia is the right guy for this, I’m not sure. Let’s wait and see for ourselves,” Calzaghe said. Joshua needs to change something, and when a fighter understands that the time has come, this is the right thing to do. He knows that tactically he needs to switch against Usyk, who is a very, very good boxer.”

Joe believes that if the ex-champion can make his physical strength more useful in the ring and use his punch more effectively, “it could be really interesting.”
“It’s not easy to predict, but it will be an exciting fight,” Calzaghe anticipated.
The British heavyweight, on the eve of the fight with Usyk, understood why he was not respected in America, and then promised to beat Usyk and give up all belts.
