The British boxer continues to look for the reasons for the defeat from the Ukrainian heavyweight in the championship fight.
Former world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua continues to look for reasons for his defeat in the fight against Alexander Usyk. The Briton once again shared his memories of that day.
Now he is sure that at that time he was not fully set up for a duel with a Ukrainian boxer. Joshua said he would change his mind before the fight if given the chance.
“Entering the ring, I will think that this person is trying to take away everything I have created, that this is not just another fight. I will also sincerely believe that I can win. I will not fight otherwise. I sincerely believe here but I have to keep believing that I can do it, keep my energy and spirit high, and believe, believe, believe.”
That’s the kind of faith when people think you’re a little crazy: “No, he’s not going to do that. I don’t believe he’s going to do it.” But that’s their faith,” Joshua told YouTube channel JD Official.
Remember that the rematch between Usyk and Joshua will take place on August 20 in Saudi Arabia. The match will take place at the Super Dome in Jeddah.
In the first match, which took place in September 2021, the Ukrainian defeated the Briton by unanimous decision, winning the championship belt.
It was previously known why Saudi Arabia became the venue for the rematch between Usyk and Joshua.
