Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk: Rage on the Red Sea
Joshua and Usyk first met each other inside the ring in September 2021. The match was one of the biggest upsets of boxing as Joshua lost his WBA, IBF, WBO, and IBO titles to Usyk. However, the two are now set to return to the ring for a rematch.
Moreover, the bout was scheduled for May, but the Ukrainian boxer opted to fight for his nation amid the conflict between Ukraine and Russia. Usyk was able to resume his preparation for his fight with AJ, though, thanks to permission from Ukraine’s minister of sports. Finally, the two will be squaring off on August 20 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
