An announcement around the date and venue for Anthony Joshua’s rematch with Oleksandr Usyk could come in the next fortnight, according to the Ukrainian’s promoter Alexander Krassyuk.
Joshua lost the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO heavyweight titles to Usyk in September, when the unbeaten southpaw outpointed the Briton in north London. “AJ” soon triggered a rematch clause to set up a second fight with Usyk, though a failed step-aside deal and Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have both been hurdles in the journey to a rematch between the pair.
