Oleksandr Usyk has pledged to assist Anthony Joshua in defeating Tyson Fury. Joshua, a former world champion who lost to Usyk twice, has joined Usyk's training camp, where they are working together and fostering a strong bond. Usyk, a two-weight and three-time undisputed world champion, has defeated Fury twice and is well-positioned to offer Joshua valuable advice on how to take down the former two-time heavyweight champion.
'I believe AJ will triumph over my friend Fury,' Usyk stated. Meanwhile, negotiations for a highly anticipated all-British heavyweight showdown between Joshua and Fury are progressing, according to Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn.
Usyk might even be in Joshua's corner for the fight, and his guidance is already making a significant impact on Joshua's training. Hearn noted that training with Usyk has been a game-changer for Joshua, who is now more confident and driven than ever. Usyk is set to face Rico Verhoeven on May 23 and is focused on that fight, but a potential matchup with the winner of Fabio Wardley and Daniel Dubois, as well as a trilogy with Fury, could be on the horizon.
