La pelea de Anthony Joshua vs. - La pelea entre Bader Al Samreen y Fuad Tarverdi será la siguiente de la velada.

Round 5: Va creciendo Usyk en la pelea, anticipándose a Joshua en los intercambios y llegando varias veces con su jab arriba. El chino tuvo un par de veces en aprietos a Hrgovic, candidato al triunfo en las apuestas. Round 9: Usyk fue una sombra de lo que mostró al inicio de la pelea y, muy estático, fue un blanco fácil para el avance de Joshua que parece comenzar a demolerlo con todos su golpes al cuerpo. El inglés empieza a tener marcas alrededor de su ojo derecho y no logra encontrar la distancia indicada para pelear. Round 10: Tremenda respuesta de Usyk, que tras su peor round salió con todo, con manos muy rápidas, y golpeó bien a un Joshua que hasta la mitad del asalto se guardó. Round 11: Usyk manejó el inicio del asalto desde el ataque y supo congelar la acción cuando Joshua buscó llevarlo contra las cuerdas.

Pero se recuperó extraordinariamente el ucraniano y ganó y puso en aprietos a Joshua en los últimos tres rounds. Mientras Joshua no presionaba, Usyk dominó con su jab y su buena precisión, llevándose la mayoría de asaltos. En revancha del combate que sostuvieron hace casi un año en Londres, Usyk volvió a ser superior en el aspecto técnico y estratégico, aunque es cierto que a Joshua se le vio más peligro y arriesgó más que en el anterior enfrentamiento.

The Ukrainian boxer defeated Anthony Joshua to retain his three heavyweight titles.

Although Joshua still suffered the defeat in Saturday's bout, he fared better than he did in the initial fight mainly due to guidance from his new trainer, Robert Garcia. Usyk’s win and return to the boxing ring comes after he joined the front lines for Ukraine’s military when the country was invaded by Russia. Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) entered the fight with the better odds (-188) to win against Joshua (+170), according to

There’s no shame in losing to Usyk, who has a legitimate case to be called the No. He allowed the fight to take place largely in the middle of the ring (like the first fight), allowed Usyk to largely dictate the pace (ditto) and wound up on the wrong end of a decision. Fury-Usyk isn’t as big as Fury-Joshua, but an undisputed heavyweight championship fight is a big deal anywhere, in the UK or abroad. After the fight, Usyk said he would fight Fury or he wouldn’t fight again. Usyk has three pieces of the heavyweight title. Joshua was more committed to the body—AJ and his team believed Usyk was vulnerable there—but beyond the ninth round he didn’t deliver a sustained attack.

Oleksandr Usyk wasted no time in calling out who he hopes will be his next opponent after retaining his IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight vs. Anthony Joshua.

"Because if AJ gets beat again off Usyk, then there's only gonna be one man to redeem this great fighting nation of the United Kingdom, and he goes by the name of Tyson Fury. "If it's half a (billion), then I won't say no, will I? The fighter recently vacated his Ring heavyweight title, suggesting he may indeed be calling it a career with a record of 32-0-1 with 23 knockouts. The man whom Usyk targeted, of course, is Tyson Fury, who has claimed to be retired after knocking out Dillian Whyte in the sixth round in an April 23 bout. "AJ's bubble's been burst, he's been beat twice. [Will Tyson Fury fight Oleksandr Usyk?

The Gypsy King teased a possible return while denouncing both fighters following their bout in Saudi Arabia on Saturday.

And if I’m not fighting Tyson Fury, I’m not fighting at all.” As fans and pundits continue to speculate on Fury’s in-ring future, Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) said Saturday that he believes the sport hasn’t seen the last of his fellow undefeated heavyweight champ. “I’m sure that Tyson Fury is not retired yet,” Usyk said. “To be honest with you guys, after watching that, the both of them was s----,” Fury exclaimed. “It was probably the [worst] heavyweight title fight I have ever seen. While some may consider Fury’s mic drop as nothing more than well-timed posturing, The Gypsy King’s short-lived comeback attempt earlier this month suggests he may not be truly ready to hang up his gloves.

Oleksandr Usyk has urged Tyson Fury to come out of retirement and fight him for the undisputed world heavyweight title.

He had the chance to fight him and chose not to. “I wanted to win for Great Britain because I know they want me to fight Tyson Fury,” Joshua said. You wanted to fight the elite. You never had the easy fights because you wanted to complete a résumé. “I saw in the eighth round, I saw in AJ’s eyes that he was feeling victorious already. “He’s too good and there’s no shame in it,” he said. Turning to Joshua, he said: “You’ve had to step up to carry the sport in our country. “It was one of the worst heavyweight title fights I have ever seen,” he said. In the later press conference, Usyk dedicated his victory to the people of Ukraine. “I am convinced he wants to fight me. His promoter, Frank Warren, said this month that Fury was showing signs of “itchy feet” and was keen to get back into the ring. I want to fight him.

Where do we go from here in the heavyweight division? All eyes shift once again to Tyson Fury.

The 34-year-old Englishman is able to switch stances seamlessly and his jab is one of the best in boxing. Fury bullied Wilder in his last two fights, leaning on him in the clinch and pushing him to the ropes, forcing his opponent to contend with all 270 pounds of him. Sure, Joshua is a big man at 6-feet-6, 245 pounds, but Fury is 6-foot-9, 270-plus pounds and possesses the sort of jab and footwork that separates him from his countryman, Joshua and most other fighters in the sport. Fury's promoter, Bob Arum, told ESPN's Mark Kriegel on Saturday that Usyk-Fury "won't be a hard fight to make," and that the purse split should be 50-50. But this fight makes far too much sense -- and dollars -- to fall by the wayside. Inside the ring, Usyk has proven to be just as courageous. He rallied with an even more dominant Round 10, and also displayed the punch resistance necessary to withstand the most dangerous shots. Usyk's use of angles, movement and an educated jab have made him a puzzle no opponent has been able to solve. "I will annihilate both of them on the same night," he said, referring to Usyk and Joshua. And if I'm not fighting Tyson Fury, I'm not fighting at all." While Joshua prepared for the rematch against Usyk, Fury defeated Dillian Whyte in April and immediately announced his retirement. That final strap, of course, is held by Tyson Fury, whose on-again, off-again retirement claims appear to be a rite of passage for top fighters.

The road to becoming the first undisputed world heavyweight champion since 2000 is clear once again. Oleksandr Usyk has the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO belts.

That would mean toiling away for now in the division’s second tier, with the likes of Dillian Whyte and Deontay Wilder potential opponents if he chooses to first see off some less dangerous fighters. Now he will actually really start to enjoy himself.” It’s going to be very expensive. “But it’s not going to be cheap. “If you want those belts back, then send in the Gypsy barbarian of England. “England has been relieved of its belts, yet again, as usual, but there is a remedy and a solution that I can suggest,” Fury said in the video published by boxing media company iFL TV.

Hopefully, he gets one of them — Usyk — to see if he can unify the heavyweight crown, and if he wins, Fury’s claim that he is the greatest gets a little more credance. But then Usyk won, and Fury changed his mind on the retirement thing yet again. Fury is also a ravenous boxing historian and knows an Usyk battle will give him the opportunity to unify the heavyweight championship. But talks of a Chisora fight fizzled and Fury once again vowed that he was retired. But, without a triumph over Usyk, can he even boast that he is the greatest of his generation? He keeps bull-horning that “The Gypsy King” is the greatest ever.

Now, Usyk and Fury could bring clarity — and a long-awaited, undisputed championship — to the heavyweight division.

In spring 2021, Saudi promoters offered $150 million for a megafight between Joshua, who held three heavyweight titles, and Tyson Fury, the undefeated World Boxing Council champion. Usyk abandoned training to join a Ukrainian army battalion, and told reporters last week that his fellow soldiers still called to update him from the front lines. And a separate video, played just before Usyk’s ring entrance, positioned everyone present as allies in the fight against Russia. Joshua, who stands at 6-foot-6 and weighed 244½ chiseled pounds on Friday, patiently employed the game plan laid out by his new trainer, Robert Garcia.
