Tyson Fury's ex-coach offers tactical advice to Anthony Joshua for Oleksandr Usyk rematch

Tyson Fury's former coach Ben Davison has outlined the changes Anthony Joshua must make in order to beat Oleksandr Usyk in their rematch.

Joshua was comfortably beaten in his first fight with Usyk, and has since exercised his rematch clause and switched trainers from Rob McCracken to Robert Garcia. He has already come back from defeat once in his career and reclaimed heavyweight gold, but it remains to be seen if he will be able to exact revenge on the Ukrainian after a comprehensive loss last September.

And ahead of their slated August 20 fight date, Davison has weighed in on what Joshua needs to do to become a three-time heavyweight champion. Davison is no stranger to elite world level boxing, having trained undisputed title holders Devin Haney and Josh Taylor, as well as bringing Fury back from 400lb to facing Deontay Wilder in 2018.
