Anthony Joshua, Usyk in tense stare-down ahead of heavyweight fight

Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk went face to face in an intense stare-down after unveiling musclebound physiques for their world heavyweight title fight.Their fascinating collision for the IBF, WBA, and WBO belts is on Saturday night at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

After a lengthy and frosty face-off, they each flexed their muscles and paid tribute to each other’s physiques – any suggestion that Joshua would come in lighter to cope with Usyk’s speed was refuted by his weight. Joshua told Sky Sports, “I don’t really watch my weight. I don’t know why there is a big thing about weight. Maybe because we are heavyweights so people look at us at our heaviest.

“I have been there – I was 18st 2lbs at one stage [for the Carlos Takam fight]. But I still managed to throw a lot of combos and go 10 rounds.
