THE COUNTDOWN is nearly complete…Anthony Joshua rematches Oleksandr Usyk TONIGHT.
AJ was outclassed and outpointed last time around as he lost his WBA, IBF and WBO world titles to Usyk at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Joshua came in 4lbs heavier than he did for their first fight, with Usyk around the same weight as last time, at 15st 11lbs.
The challenger Joshua said: “I’ll be honest, all of this stuff doesn’t matter, it’s just about the fight. Real talk.
“All of this stuff, weight, face-off, none of it matters to me. Just looking forward to the fight.”
Usyk – the former 14st 4lbs undisputed cruiserweight champion of the world – stayed bang-on his 221lbs – 15st 11lbs – mark from the first unanimous points win.
