The epic duel is now expected to take place on February 17, 2024.
The last duel for the title of the absolute heavyweight champion of the world took place only in 1999, when Lennox Lewis won against Evander Holyfield and won the three main belts in boxing versions.
“I don’t know who will win, but I will support Usik and his team. “Fury has said a lot of bad things about me, so I choose to support Usika,” reveals Joshua.
“I will never support someone who does not respect me. If I did, it would be a very strange decision on my part. Therefore, I will sympathize with a person who shows me respect,” adds British boxer Joshua.
Joshua and Usyk met for the first time in the boxing ring on September 25, 2021 in London, Usyk celebrated the victory by points.
The Ukrainian hero won four belts – the World Boxing Association (WBA), the International Boxing Federation (IBF) and the World Boxing Organization (WBO), as well as the International Boxing Organization (IBO) belt. Tyson Fury currently holds the prestigious (World Boxing Council) WBC championship belt.
After the loss, the British boxer Joshua immediately announced that he wanted a rematch, but in the rematch between the two boxers, Usyk once again celebrated the victory.
Joshua and American Deontay Wilder will fight in Saudi Arabia at the end of December.
