Anthony Joshua appears to have set up an attempt to break heavyweight rival Oleksandr Usyk's five-hour swimming record.
Usyk picked up a second consecutive victory over Joshua last month in Saudi Arabia after putting in another sensational display to outpoint his rival by split decision. The Ukrainian once again showed his superb endurance and ability to control the fight despite Joshua improving from their maiden clash and even coming close to stopping the second meeting.
Prior to the bout taking place, Usyk looked in incredible shape and it had been revealed to former opponent Derek Chisora that he had been swimming in incredible five-hour bursts and training three times a day to prepare for the second test with Joshua. Now Joshua appears to have accepted the challenge of beating Usyk's endurance posting on Snapchat, with the caption: "You know I love a challenge."
