Oleksandr Usyk Vs Anthony Joshua 2 confirmed.

This is do or die for Anthony Joshua. Public opinion of him is at an all-time low, it seems like 9 out of 10 boxing fans that I speak to (hardcore and casual) don’t rate him anymore. Back to back losses, and his third overall, would be the end of AJ in big-time boxing, and likely boxing full-stop.

If he loses again, he may as well hang them up. He’s 33 this year, the Fury fight is not going to happen after 2 losses on the trot, the Wilder fight will never happen because Haymon and Hearn would never work together to make that fight, and no other opponent would be interesting to the general public.

Imo, Usyk stops Joshua this time, and this will be Joshua’s final fight.

 

Same result as before for me. Then the body builder calls it a day.

 

I highly doubt any undisputed title fight happens in Saudi Arabia without Joshua.

 

Usyk looks to be in fantastic shape. I'd be surprised if Joshua doesn't get stopped.

Towel coming in round 8 is my prediction.

 

I bet Joshua regrets ducking Fury and Wilder, losing to either of those guys wouldn't hurt his career but losing to a middleweight twice does

 

Usyk should win, I hope that Joshua will be more aggressive and that he will take more risks, which would make the fight more interesting and that is what we all want, may the better fighter and the beauty of boxing win...

 

Given everything that Usyk has been through mentally over the last 6 months, I can see AJ winning this. Think the long delay would have helpoed AJ.

 

Bro you may need to take a short time out on your vacation to watch it. I know you won’t want to miss it when AJ exacts revenge on Dr No Usyk in spectacular fashion. I wanted AJ to have Derrick James as his new trainer but happy with the experienced world champion trainer in Roberto Garcia. Also because the fight is I; Saudi I am fine for them training in the UK but future camps must be in the USA.

 

Assuming AJ loses, he'd be dropped down to the has-been category, like Parker and Arreola.
No need for Fury to fight AJ, and frankly no market for a huge payday, which is the only reason Fury "unretired".

Fury-Usyk, on the other hand, would be huuuge.

 

A REAL boxing fan would cancel his vacation and stay home. Sad.
The wife and kids will understand.

 

If it's on the zone than that's great I can be jn a bar or restaurant and still watch on my phone drunk af lol. I can't wait. Should be a great rematch.

 

Oh yes looking forward to it. I just feel sorry for the ESB EE club when their hero gets decimated as there will have to be be so much crow they eat. Better still I am waiting for their excuses. I just hope they can make them more inventive this time.

 

It surprises me that people like RJJ says that Joshua will win if he's aggressive and physical, since my feeling was that Usyk's counters was what mainly kept AJ confined in the first fight. He gave no indication of being able to do a Hagler-Hearns and just walk through Usyk's best to assert his own fight, but RJJ has of course a great eye for boxing so it's going to be interesting to see.

 

He already tried boxing him and failed.
Trying to be more physical puts him in harm’s way yes but alao increases his chances.
Boxing is a gamble as this will be.

 

Hearn is dumb to do it. Damaged goods fAkeJay better ask Roberto García to get that towel ready.
