Former world cruiserweight champion Johnny Nelson has said he thinks Anthony Joshua may ‘walk away’ from boxing if he is beaten by Oleksandr Usyk again this weekend.
Joshua was on the wrong end of a unanimous decision against Usyk last September, losing to the unbeaten Ukrainian at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in north London. The result saw “AJ” lose the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO heavyweight titles to the former undisputed cruiserweight champion, who will defend them against the Briton in Saudi Arabia on Saturday.
