According to the functionary, the Ukrainian athlete will win the second match.
“Usyk will win. Robert Garcia is a great coach, but which of the heavyweights has he trained? I think Usyk is better as a fighter. If I were to bet on this fight, I would bet on Alexander, ” said Arum in an interview with the YouTube channel ESNEWS.
It will be remembered that the rematch between Usyk and Joshua will take place on August 20 in Jeddah (Saudi Arabia) at the Super Dome arena. In the first match, which took place in September 2021, the Ukrainian defeated the Briton by unanimous decision, winning the championship belt.
Usyk and Joshua were previously rumored to be fighting for the vacant title of The Ring.
