Undefeated British heavyweight Joe Joyce spoke again about the rematch.
Joe Joyce continues to assess Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua’s chances of a rematch. According to the undefeated British heavyweight, at the beginning the advantage was on the side of the Ukrainian, because he had already won and knew how to do it.
Joshua’s only chance is a powerful punch that can knock an opponent down. However, according to Joyce, you have to wait until the start of the match to understand what tactics the athletes have chosen.
“We need to see what they will be like tonight. When the gong rings and the first round begins, you can evaluate how the fight will go. But Usyk has already defeated Joshua, so he just has to do it. Plus, he’s confident after this win, so it’s up to Joshua if he can move forward to try to take back his titles.
Usyk has everything to beat Joshua again. However, Anthony has a puncher’s chance, he has a heavy punch. But if he can’t deliver strong punches, Usyk will win again,” said Joyce in an interview with YouTube channel talkSPORT Boxing.
It can be remembered 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.
Earlier, Alexander Usyk showed how he is preparing for a rematch against Anthony Joshua.
