Usyk vs AJ: Predictions from boxing experts ahead of huge ... (Sky Sports)

The huge Oleksandr Usyk vs Anthony Joshua rematch is finally here. They clash tonight live on Sky Sports Box Office.

I think he's going to come out and go for it all guns blazing and go for it and he's going to do it! But I still think Usyk is too cute, too clever and he will come out on top. If Anthony Joshua can stick to the plan, I say Anthony Joshua stops Oleksandr Usyk in the mid rounds. I think Usyk will come out on top. I think the safer bet is Usyk. I want to see Joshua step up and fight Usyk back with stiff hard jabs and finishing with hooks. If AJ makes the proper adjustments, he could always score a knockout as well, but I just don't see him winning on points. He's got to be a bully. The obvious answer to who wins is Usyk wins because it was so one-sided, so conclusive in the first fight. Joshua made a lot of mistakes in the first fight with Usyk. He's got a great coach behind him who's took a lot of world champions into fights and it's interesting, I'm not sure how it's going to go. He was a little bit like a deer in the headlights, which is ridiculous because he's heavyweight champion.

Plus, how Joshua can win tonight's fight through aggression, not boxing techique.

On Saturday night, Joshua must be expected to make his hands tell on his foe and do what comes naturally as an enforcer in the ring. Yet should Joshua become reckless, he will be exposed, giving Usyk more opportunities to counter from the southpaw stance. He is taller and heavier than the Ukrainian but, given their respective styles, it is unlikely that Joshua will prevail on points. It also represents the chance to cast aside accusations that Joshua has become gun-shy since being defeated by Andy Ruiz in June 2019, when he was floored four times en route to a stoppage defeat in New York. Joshua, a physical behemoth, has the opportunity to dispel doubts about his mentality, hunger and ability at the elite level. Joshua: We all want AJ to win the fight obviously, as a Brit, and I do think he wins this fight. There is no need for him to think about the beauty of boxing, he should be the beast. But this is boxing at the end of the day and you just never know how it's going to end up. This has got to be a dogfight from the first bell. He's got the momentum now and how he was able to do it the last time around. I felt that he would out-jab him or keep him on the end of the jab and let the right hand go but he didn't. Win, and it could be the catalyst that his career needs.

The Manchester native responded in kind, mocking his rival for being a "wannabe rudeboy". Fury has spent the last few years trolling Joshua, including multiple Facetime calls with his rival, and a host of other tweets. Since that tweet, they went back and forth exchanging aggressive messages, with Fury at one point calling Joshua a "poor man's Frank Bruno". And the Manchester native, who at the time was heading into a deep depression and lengthy time out of the ring, was offended at the idea, telling Joshua: "Jealous of a weightlifter who is fighting for a paper title? Just months later, Joshua had claimed in an interview that Fury was "jealous" of him. The first recorded tweet from Fury to Joshua amid their years-long feud was a supportive one, as he watched while the future two-time heavyweight champion knocked out Kevin Johnson within two rounds.
