Anthony Joshua will attempt to reclaim the lost world heavyweight titles when he locks horns with Oleksandr Usyk once again in Saudi Arabia. This is must-win territory for ‘AJ’, who paid dearly for a misguided approach during the first fight at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last September as he slumped to a dismal second professional loss. Rather than try to utilise his superior size, strength and power from the first bell, Joshua bizarrely instead tried to outbox and tactically outwit Usyk, a far quicker and massively skilled, awkward and nimble southpaw, who almost managed to secure a knockout.
