Oleksandr #Usyk Vs Anthony Joshua: How To Watch Or Stream Online, Kick Off Time—-Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua face off this weekend in one of the highest profile rematches in the last decade. Make no mistake, this is a huge deal. This fight will potentially be crucial in defining the legacy of Joshua, currently one of the biggest draws in boxing.
Joshua lost a fairly convincing decision to the smaller Ukrainian boxer back in September last year, struggling with the technical boxing and pure speed of Usyk, who has spent a significant portion of his boxing career fighting at cruiserweight.
Can Joshua make the adjustments necessary to change the clear outcome of the first fight? It’ll be a significant challenge, but Joshua has bounced back from defeat before. After losing to Andy Ruiz in 2019 he came back and won a convincing decision just six months later.
