How Anthony Joshua really feels about possible fight with Oleksandr Usyk

After stopping Tony Bellew in the eighth round on Saturday, undisputed cruiserweight Oleksandr Usyk (16-0, 12 KO) is now looking to the heavyweight division and relying on Anthony Joshua (22-22, 21 by KO) to help achieve this. “Becoming a heavyweight champion of the world is not what I’m dreaming of. It’s my goal. It’s what I’m planning to do,” says Usyk. Some have doubted Usyk will make the weight, however, promoter Eddie Hearn has confirmed Joshua’s interest. “I think he’s intrigued by Usyk. I think he’d like to fight Usyk, I think he would like to fight everybody who he views as a top-level fighter," Hearn revealed. "That could end up being a huge, huge fight, but I think Usyk in the post-fight interview was very sensible and said this division is not a joke.”

David Haye: “I had Bellew ahead of Usyk by one, but he unraveled “
