He gave some advice to the British boxer, which, in his opinion, can help defeat the Ukrainian.

" He needs to be focused enough to understand what's going on.. It is very important that he be able to break Usyk's rhythm."

Sometimes this will force Alexander to rebuild and destroy his base, which Joshua can use to his advantage.. He will go on the attack and make it harder for Usyk to predict his actions, which will make it harder for Alexander to counterattack.. I think that Anthony could have played more compactly, but the natural confrontation between the orthodox and the left-hander would lead to exchanges of striking hands..

Anthony could use this to his advantage if he knew what to expect.. However, Usyk works very well with a striking hand.. I think it's vital for Joshua to seize the initiative in these moments.. He needs to create opportunities and know when to attack,” Davison was quoted as saying by the Mirror..

Recall that on the night of September 26, 2021, Usyk defeated Joshua in London. by unanimous decision - 117-112, 116-112 and 115-113, and won the IBF, WBO, WBA and IBO heavyweight titles. After that, the Briton activated the option of revenge, prescribed in the contract for the first fight..

The 35-year-old Usyk has 19 wins (13 by knockout) in 19 fights. He spent three of them in the heavyweight division.. Before that, Alexander became the absolute world champion in the cruiserweight (weight category up to 90.7 kg), having won all four of the most prestigious belts there..

32-year-old Joshua has 24 wins (22 by KO) and two losses.. For the first time, AJ lost in June 2019 to Andy Ruiz, but in December of the same year he defeated the Mexican in a rematch and regained his titles.
