ANTHONY JOSHUA looked colossal as he gave fans a glimpse into his training camp to fight Oleksandr Usyk.
AJ rematches Usyk on August 20 in Saudi Arabia having been initially beaten in September.
Anthony Joshua gave fans a glimpse into his training camp to fight Oleksandr Usyk
Joshua has been preparing for the fight of his life under new head trainers Angel Fernandez and Robert Garcia.
And it appears to be tiring work as the former unified heavyweight champion was pictured receiving a massage.
Joshua, 32, captioned the post: “A moment of calm.”
He has relocated to Loughborough after leaving long-time cornerman Rob McCracken.
And after ripping up his training team, Joshua wants to get back to slicing up the faces of his opponents, starting with Usyk, 35.
He said: “I saw he’s got a slice scar on his eye, from me.
“I was thinking back, I have cut up a few people’s faces in my career; Paul Butlin, Usyk, I split Kubrat Pulev’s lip.
“I just grazed Andy Ruiz, he doesn’t count ‘cos I mean properly smashing faces in. I like that stuff.
“One of my strengths was my power but I always wanted to go down that path of being a clean boxer, ‘hit and not get hit’, especially if I want to have a long and successful career.
“You need to have good defence but I moved away from the ferocious side of boxing where I knew I could hit and stun people.
“And I do miss the days of slicing people’s faces open and hurting them, for sure.
“So I am looking forward to getting back to that.”
