Former absolute world champion in the first welterweight Josh Taylor commented on the talk that Anthony Joshua in his current form is able to take the upper hand over the holder of WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight belts Oleksandr Usyk.
"I think Usik will beat Joshua 10 times out of 10. The opposite outcome can only be if Anthony catches him with his strongest punch. I just think Usik's movement, his boxing IQ will beat Joshua 10 times out of 10.
I'm not being rude about him or disrespectful. It's just my opinion. I just think Joshua will suffer with him every time. Until he changes his tactics based on physicality. He needs to emphasize using his power - that's what might work. But I don't see it," said Taylor in an interview with YouTube channel Pro Boxing Fans.
Recall that Usik inflicted Joshua two defeats on points in 2021 and 2022.
