What weight is Oleksandr Usyk for Anthony Joshua rematch?

Oleksandr Usyk has weighed in at 221½lbs for his rematch with Anthony Joshua - just half a pound more than he did for the first fight between the pair.

Joshua has weighed in at 244½lbs - which is 4½lbs heavier than he was for his defeat to the Ukranian last September.

The Englishman is aiming to reclaim the WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight belts he lost to his rival on a passive night at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium almost a year ago.
