Since December last year, the measurement between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury has become what many boxing fans expect.
However, because Deontay Wilder asked Tyson Fury to have a third match with him through the judge, the competition of the heavyweight belt was welcomed and had to be canceled.
Because of this, the WBO Federation asked Anthony Joshua to compete with their number one candidate, Oleksandr Usyk, the boxer who once dominated the Cruiserweight weight class (heavy lower level).
In recent times, Joshua and his boss – Eddie Hearn – emphasized that they were not satisfied with this decision. However, it seems that the 31 -year -old puncher has reached a satisfactory agreement.
Joshua said in an interview: “I want to fight in August but change the opponent, a completely different style.
Now we have a stop that we have to do with USYK. At the end of September, I will confront the world's absolute cruiserweight champion. “
While the broken Joshua vs Fury's match has disappointed most of the boxing world, with USYK (18-0, 13 KOS), it is a great good news. Since winning all 4 major titles in the Cruiserweight in 2018, Usyk has made an effort to make its mark in the land of the giants.
