The Briton will try to take revenge on the Ukrainian on August 20
Former World Heavyweight Champion Anthony Joshua remembered the first fight against Oleksandr Usyk. The Briton admitted that he made a mistake in that battle and deservedly lost.
“In the first fight, Usyk kicked my ass in some rounds. I have to accept this defeat like a man. I consider myself responsible for it. I am a person who can admit when he was wrong and hold his head high when he is right. In the September fight, Usyk was right and I was wrong,” Joshua said.
“We should switch roles on August 20th. I do not like to complicate the situation, because everything ingenious is simple. Sometimes, if everything is done simply, you can achieve a lot.”

The second fight between Usyk and Joshua will take place on August 20 in Saudi Arabia. Last autumn, the Ukrainian defeated the Briton by unanimous decision and became the world heavyweight champion for the first time.
