The Americans left a warm wish for the famous athletes.
WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk will fight Anthony Joshua for the second time.
Former WBC heavyweight title holder American Deontay Wilder shared his expectations from the fight.
According to the athlete, he believes that the Ukrainian boxer will win.
“My heart easily said Usyk would win. Now he has momentum. But this is boxing and you can’t be sure of anything.”
