During the approach to the press in Jeddah (Saudi Arabia), the IBF, WBO and WBA heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (19-0, 13 KOs) was relaxed and was not going to respond to statements from the rematch opponent Anthony Joshua ( 24-2, 22 KOs). And so, we recall, in the person of promoter Eddie Hearn, the Briton was “programmed” to win by knockout in the first half of the battle.
Usyk was asked how he likes such a forecast.
“I would joke now, but I want to eat so much! – Usyk reacted in Ukrainian. “They talk a lot.”
When asked what he thinks about the possible actions of Joshua in a rematch, Usyk answered even more briefly: “I don’t think about it.”
$1 million for 100 cars for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The purpose of raising money by the Usyk Foundation is indicated
The Ukrainian asked not to ask him questions about potential fights after Joshua, but some journalist still managed to get out of him – “I think that we will be with him [Тайсоном Фьюри] box”.
In Saudi Arabia, Alexander says, he liked the fact that there is no alcohol there.
In the fall of 2021, Alexander outboxed Anthony. And today undercard fights were announced in Saudi Arabia.
