Hearn replied, “I expect him [Usyk] to try and walk AJ down. I think this fight will be over in six rounds. It’s going to be a war. I don’t think Usyk wants to be walked down by AJ, to box off the back foot against an aggressive Anthony Joshua. I expect him to be aggressive, and I think he’s going to get knocked out.”
