Oleksandr Usyk, the unified heavyweight champion, has been helping Anthony Joshua prepare a gameplan for a potential all-British showdown against Tyson Fury.

Oleksandr Usyk, the unified heavyweight champion, believes Anthony Joshua can defeat Tyson Fury and has been assisting Joshua with his preparation for the potential all-British showdown, according to BBC Sport. Usyk, who holds the WBA, IBF, WBO, and IBO heavyweight titles, has been sharing his insights with Joshua as the British pair of heavyweight boxers potentially move toward a lucrative unification fight. The two British boxers have previously met in the ring, with Usyk defeating Joshua in September 2021 before Joshua won their rematch in December 2022. Usyk reportedly believes that Joshua has the tools to overcome Fury in what would be a highly anticipated all-British heavyweight clash. Joshua has been working on his strategy with the assistance of Usyk, who has intimate knowledge of both boxers' strengths and weaknesses from his previous encounters with each. The proposed fight between Joshua and Fury would be one of the biggest events in British boxing history.
