Usyk and Joshua’s HUGE rematch is finally here

AJ tried to outbox the slick southpaw in their Tottenham tussle last September, and ended up suffering a lopsided points defeat.

But Joshua’s training partner and good pal Lawrence Okolie reckons he can become a three-time heavyweight champion if he sticks to the secret game plan he’s been honing for the last eight months.

The WBO cruiserweight champion told SunSport: “Some of those adjustments, which I don’t want to go too much into, are showing a bit in the little techniques that he’s been working on in training with me.

“I’m obviously an almost opposite style to Usyk, so it’s hard to deal with when he would try those techniques with me.

“But it [his most recent training with AJ] was good and I look forward to them clashing again and that’s it.”
