Starting Monday, Robert McCracken will return to daily training with Anthony Joshua (24-1, 21 KOs) as he prepares to fight Alexander Usik (18-0, 13 KOs). The Brit has had to make do without a coach for the past two weeks, who has been performing his duties with the national team at the Olympics.

Joshua has already started his first sparring sessions before the fight with the Ukrainian. The 31-year-old is currently gaining form at the expense of sparring partners Thomas Carty (1-0) and Shokran Parvani (16-1, 13 KOs), among others. These two boxers also helped Derek Chisora prepare for his bout with Usik.

The bout between Anthony Joshua and Alexander Usik will take place on September 25 in London. At stake will be the WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight belts.
