We will find out how much Alexander gained in weight today – at 15:00 in Jeddah, the official weighing ceremony for Usyk and Joshua will begin. The Ukrainian himself, answering a question about his weight a week before the fight, was rather evasive: “I think that for a hundred”. But the fact is that Usyk weighed “for a hundred” in the first fight with Joshua, then showing a record weight in his career – 100.3 kg. And, by the way, outwardly, Usyk now does not look more than his version of the September 2021 sample. But there is no doubt about this – the Ukrainian is in excellent shape before the rematch.
“When we watched the video of Usyk from the training camp, we realized that he looked like a cyborg. He went through hell in a training camp. It didn’t kill him, but it made him stronger. I have never seen him more determined than now. It was an extremely difficult challenge for him, but he seems to have coped with it, ”said Alexander Krasyuk, general director of the promotional company K2, representing the interests of Usyk in this fight.
