Anthony Joshua has been dumping his sparring partners on the canvas ahead of his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk.
That's according to his camp manager David 'KD' Ghansa, who insists Joshua has gone through 13 sparring partners in camp for his heavyweight world title challenge. He has been training mostly in silence, making rare appearances in public ahead of the huge unified title bout with Usyk in Saudi Arabia, which takes place on Saturday night.
Joshua immediately pushed for a rematch with Usyk after losing his belts to the Ukrainian last September, and has finally been granted his contractually obligated fight. The bout was delayed for almost a year due to first issues surrounding the war in Ukraine, but the pair are now just days away from a second fight.
