Also according to the above source, it will need more than two or three weeks to solve the copyright issues of the match broadcast. Currently, Dazn is an international copyright unit, but Sky is said to have reached an agreement with Joshua about broadcasting the match in the UK.

Even so, on the side of Oleksandr Usyk, Ukrainian boxers still assert that they have not been discussed anything about postponing the upcoming match.

Meanwhile, with Anthony Joshua, the postponement of the radio will benefit the British puncher. At that time, Joshua will have more time to work with new coach Robert Garcia – who has just been chosen to replace Rob McCracken.

After a defeat at Wembley's home field last September, Anthony Joshua was eager to admire Oleksandr Usyk. With about 10 days of delay, the British puncher will have a more thorough preparation for the rematch on Saudi Arabia.
