DILLIAN WHYTE believes Anthony Joshua only has one way to beat Oleksandr Usyk this weekend.
British heavyweight ace AJ fights the Ukrainian champion in Saudi Arabia on Saturday in a bid to win back his world titles.
Failure to do so could see Joshua fall off the map in his bid for world domination.
But victory opens the door for several money-spinning fights, including Tyson Fury and Whyte.
The latter has already fought Joshua, losing to his compatriot in 2015.
But Whyte is eager for a rematch, and he has now given AJ tips on how to beat Usyk and make it happen.

”I do expect him to bounce back, he’s a British fighter like me and I only support our own, so I do hope he gets the job done. It’s good for me if he wins as well.
“I can understand that [rediscovering his aggressive side], because I’m of the same mindset as well.
“In my last fight [against Tyson Fury] I wasn’t as aggressive as I normally am, I’ve said the same thing to myself, I need to rediscover that aggression.
“I think it’s the right mindset he needs going into the fight, it’s the only way he wins the fight.
“When we fought, we fought twice, both fights we had there was a lot of aggression between me and him in the fight, that’s the difference between fighting me and fighting Usyk, that aggression wasn’t there.
“He was sort of trying to outbox someone who has been boxing for 25/30 years.

“I believe if he revisits that aggression he had for me, he does a much better job and probably beats Usyk and knocks him out this time.
“Me and him are similar in a lot of ways, we come forward and throw a lot of punches, are aggressive and enforce ourselves on our opponents, I think they’ll be trying to get him back to that.”
