Last year, Anthony Joshua succumbed to a tragic loss to the Ukrainian stalwart, Oleksandr Usyk. This fight was regarded as the toughest test for Joshua, as Usyk is one of the most tactical boxers at present. Nothing went right for Joshua in this fight and now he’s only kept his attention on the rematch.

The Briton is engrossed in his training session these days. Recently, Joshua posted a video on his social media wherein he could be seen polishing his punching abilities. But a catch over here was Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder’s fight going in the background.

For obvious reasons, Joshua’s workout video became a talk of the town and many fans began pouring in their reactions to the same.
