Heavyweight boxer, Anthony Joshua has accepted that his decision to try and outbox Oleksandr Usyk was appalling.
The tactics he employed last September saw him easily outmatched and outclassed by Ukraine’s Usyk, who inherited the WBA, IBF and WBO belts.
Joshua however said he is now prepared to try and knock out ex-cruiserweight king Usyk in their rematch in August.
The two-time heavyweight champion will be trained by Robert Garcia and previous coach Angel Fernandez for the money-spinning sequel.
And Garcia has suggested that Joshua is capable of winning over the 12-round distance despite last year’s result.
