British promoter Frank Warren (Queensberry Promotions) believes that on August 20, in a rematch with Anthony Joshua, Ukrainian IBF, WBO and WBA heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk will press the opponent to an early end of the fight.
The functionary said that the forecast can only be based on what he saw in the first fight, where Usyk declassed Joshua.
“I was pretty surprised how easily Usyk handled him. And it seems he boxed the way he was told, that is, he did not try to endure Joshua … There were several moments, exactly in the last round, when he, I think, could stop him, ”said Warren

“This time, I think he will stop him. This is not a rematch with Ruiz, this guy, Usyk, is a total athlete. He prepares hard, locks himself in camp, takes everything seriously,” Uncle Frank replied. – So, I think [Джошуа] a huge piece of work on hand. And this time he will not have a “home” arena.
Warren also made fun of Joshua, who stated that in the first fight he was allegedly “surprised” that he lost because he “felt like Ali in the ring.”
“Well, he probably looked like, yes, 60-year-old Ali. No, he did not look like any Ali, he was in the role of catching up the whole fight. Usyk taught him a boxing lesson, and at some point Joshua was 100% ready to lose ahead of schedule: he was stormy, the corner was ready to throw in the towel, ”said the head of Queensberry Promotions.
