Anthony Joshua (24-1, 21 KOs) does not underestimate Oleksandr Usyk (18-0, 13 KOs), but he is sure that he will come out the winner in the fight with the Ukrainian.

“I have a habit of judging my opponents. Usyk is good, but in the end it is important whose hand goes up after the final bell. Usyk is good, but I am better. I have to prepare well and deal with him with confidence, because I have more serious things ahead,” AJ said in an interview with Sky Sports.

Joshua and Usyk cross gloves on September 25 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. The fight will become a mandatory defense of the WBO heavyweight belt for the Englishman. WBA and IBF titles will also be at stake.
