Slick southpaw Usyk is expected to test AJ, but David Haye, an ex-heavyweight champion, believes Josh will defeat The Cat before halftime.
SecondsOut was informed by the former WBA titleholder: "AJ knocks Usyk off very conclusively.
"Left to right, jab, right cross that puts Usyk out or down, then it's over. 100% within six rounds.
"If it goes beyond six rounds, it is because AJ wants it more than six rounds. Because of what I saw in the Pulev fight, yes.
Joshua, 31, hasn’t been inside the ring since December 9, when he defeated Kubrat Pulev, a Bulgarian bruiser.
Haye was impressed by AJ's patience at the SSE Wembley Arena that night and believes he will use it against Usyk.
He said, "That Pulev fight taught me where AJ stands right now patience-wise. And he's at his prime."
Andrew Golota looked the same as Lennox Lewis before their fight, having had several tough fights with Riddick bowe.
Lennox said, "No, there are levels to this board game." Bing, beep, bing.
"That's exactly the thing AJ is going [against Usyk].
"He's going out there, he's going to say, 'You are a tricky southpaw, Olympic champion, good luck.
"Undisputed champion cruiserweight."
Joshua wants to share the ring, but he doesn't intend to fight him.
Sky Sports quoted him as saying, "Movement is not being stationary to be hit." It is vital to move.
"Concentration is when you want [punch], then you lock in and then you make a move. Your brain must work properly.
"It can be mentally exhausting, so I am working to sharpen my mind in order to concentrate for the 12 rounds.
"I also practice the ability to [punch] four or more times. Take your time, concentrate, and pin him down.
It's a battle for the brain. It's important to know what is in front of your face and how you can deal with it.
You can be aggressive, corner [him], or throw everything at him. You can also be patient, clever and knock him out.
