Anthony Joshua "could retire" if he loses to Oleksandr Usyk in rematch

David Haye believes Anthony Joshua could retire from boxing if he loses his world heavyweight title rematch to Oleksandr Usyk.

Joshua looks to win back the belts he lost to Usyk last September when the pair meet in Saudi Arabia on August 20. The Brit has partnered up with new trainer Robert Garcia for the rematch, parting ways with longtime coach Robert McCracken after a disastrous gameplan in his first meeting against Usyk.

The fight provides Joshua with the opportunity to become one of the few three-time heavyweight champions in boxing history. It could also set up an undisputed clash with WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, who insists he is still retired from the sport.
