In the upcoming fight, 38-year-old Chisora \u200b\u200bdecided to bet on his compatriot. Derek believes that Joshua will take risks in the sixth or seventh round and be able to knock out Usyk.

" We don't worry too much about weighing. The bottom line is that we look at our opponent for the last time before entering the ring.. Looks like Joshua is in great shape. He did a good job, he trained well. We know that Alexander also prepared very well, so now the main thing is who wants to win more.

Joshua will win this fight by knockout. He will risk everything and stop Usyk in about 6-7 rounds,"

We add that Chisora \u200b\u200bhimself has a negative experience of confronting Usyk in the ring. In October 2020, Derek lost to Alexander by unanimous decision in a fight for the status of a mandatory contender for the WBO world title..

The second fight between Usyk and Joshua will take place on August 20 in the city of Jeddah in Saudi Arabia.. In June, the official announcement of revenge between the Ukrainian and the British took place.

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..

So in the rematch, all the titles that the Ukrainian took away from the Briton last year, as well as the belt of The Ring magazine, will be at stake..

The 35-year-old Usyk has 19 wins (13 by knockout) in 19 fights. He held 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..

Joshua, 32, has 24 wins (22 by knockout) 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.
