Usyk Trains Joshua to Overcome Fury: 'AJ is Capable of Winning'
Oleksandr Usyk is committed to helping Anthony Joshua secure a victory against Tyson Fury. Joshua, a former world champion who lost to Usyk twice, has joined Usyk's training camp, and the two have formed a strong bond. 'We support each other, work together, and have a great time,' Usyk said in an interview with Sky Sports. As a two-weight, three-time undisputed world champion, Usyk is well-equipped to advise Joshua on how to defeat Fury, having beaten him twice himself. 'I believe AJ can do it and beat my friend Tyson Fury,' Usyk stated. Joshua's promoter, Eddie Hearn, revealed that negotiations for a fight between Joshua and Fury are progressing, with the potential for Usyk to be in Joshua's corner. Hearn expressed confidence in Joshua's abilities, citing the positive impact of training with Usyk. 'Being around the best fighter in the sport is incredible, and Joshua loves it,' Hearn said. Usyk is currently preparing for his own fight against Rico Verhoeven on May 23, but he is focused on helping Joshua achieve victory against Fury.
