Eddie Hearn has revealed Anthony Joshua is raring to go ahead of his all-important sequel with Oleksandr Usyk next weekend.
Joshua will face arguably the biggest task of his career when he bids for revenge against Usyk at the Jeddah Super Dome in Saudi Arabia next Saturday. 'AJ' lost his titles in devastating fashion last September, when he was comfortably outpointed by the tricky Ukrainian in the UK.
Much has been made of Joshua's tactical approach to the maiden clash, with many suggesting he was unable to access his usual aggressive style. However, Hearn believes the Watford native is in a good place mentally after speaking to the heavyweight. "I spoke to Anthony last night actually," Hearn said in an exclusive chat with Mirror Fighting at Friday's press conference to announce Chris Eubank Jr vs Conor Benn.
