Usyk had been set to clash with AJ again in the spring, before Russia’s invasion of his homeland KO’d initial plans.
The 35-year-old returned to his country to fight on the front line, with Joshua’s future left up in the air.
Thankfully Usyk wasn’t hurt and he has confirmed he has now left Ukraine to start training for his title fight.
And details of the Usyk‘s rematch with Joshua are set to be finalised in the next TWO WEEKS.

Usyk’s promoter Alexander Krassyuk told Sky Sports: “Within the next two weeks we expect to finalise details.”
Krassyuk continued: “This location is under discussion at the moment.
“Late June is also the timing we are considering now.
“Many things will depend on how fast we manage to ink the papers.
“The good thing is that Usyk is already in Europe to start his preparation.”
Spencer Oliver has hailed “brave” Joshua for accepting the rematch without having a warm-up fight.
Oliver says the Brit is determined to right the wrongs of the last fight.
He told Pro Boxing Fans: “It’s a brave move by Anthony Joshua. I spoke to him about that anyways. He said it’s a fight he ,’needs to do’ for himself.
“And it’s a fight that he needs to get out there and go and right the wrongs.
“So you’ve got to respect him for that, for taking that decision to go back into that rematch with Oleksandr Usyk.”
