This exciting clash will feature a battle between two London 2012 Olympic gold medallists.

Joshua posted on Instagram: "The perfect Storm" along with a trailer for the fight.

The unbeaten Usyk, who is fleet-footed, won't be an easy task for AJ to overcome, believes that The Cat will be his second-biggest challenge.

According to him, "On paper, he is number two behind Wladimir Klitschko.

Although technically they are very different, on paper they are the same. He is an Olympic gold medallist and reigned for more than 10 years. He's number one.

"But Usyk is number 2 because of his success at the cruiserweight, and his so far at the heavyweight.

"One of his strengths, he's getting into the ring alongside me.

"I have to give him credit for this, it's going be difficult."

Many believe Joshua, the Knockout Artist, is too big for Usyk. Former heavyweight champion David Haye predicts that he will stop the fight with an elbow.

AJ however hasn't been thinking too much about the fight-ending sequence. He told Sky Sports last month that he watched [Evander] Holyfield (and [James] Quick Tillis] today, and he was saying how he was gonna bring war.

"And if Tyson wins, he'll fight Tyson and rematch him. He lost in the fifth round, according to me.

It doesn't matter what I say or who says it, it doesn't really matter if you are in the ring. It is something I respect, and everyone has the right.

"And that was what I was saying. One day, I'm going to be that guy at the sidelines.

"But for now, I wish Usyk great camp and I wish his team safe travels. The same goes for my team.

"The most important thing is that we keep boxing alive, and we get in there to put on a good fight. That's what we are here for.

"And that's exactly what I'm here for, at the end. He's also here to do the exact same.
