Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk 2: Fight date, UK start time and undercard

Anthony Joshua will attempt to win back his three heavyweight world titles for a second time when he takes on Oleksandr Usyk in their eagerly-anticipated rematch this summer.

Joshua was comprehensively outpointed by Usyk in London last September as he lost his titles for the second time in three fights. Negotiations over a rematch rumbled on for months with Usyk opting to remain in Ukraine to take up arms against the Russian invasion.

But terms were finally agreed as Joshua plots his revenge in Saudi Arabia, armed with a new training team headed up by renowned coach Robert Garcia. Usyk, meanwhile, will be confident of repeating his performance almost 12 months on with the potential carrot of an undisputed clash with Tyson Fury in the future.
