As he prepares for Anthony Joshua's rematch, Oleksandr Usyk displays frightening reflexes and a remarkable coin trick.

OLEKSANDRUSYK impressed his fans with a coin trick. He showed that he is in for a penny, and Anthony Joshua may be in for an entire POUND.

As he flicked four coins from his elbow, the Ukrainian stared at the money and then caught them all one by one.

This is the kind of blurring reflexes that explains why Usyk is favored by bookies to keep the world heavyweight titles he won from AJ on points last September at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Joshua will be hoping for change in Saudi Arabia, where they meet again on Saturday.

The Brit must show the other side of his form 11 months ago and put pressure on the smaller fighter.

Usyk was the main stage when he fought then, and he did it again Tuesday night as a pre-fight treat for fans at the Jeddah Super Dome.

AJ may be most afraid of his rat-tat tat-tat method in which he holds four coins from his left arm in one hand.

Joshua's sparring partner Marko Miun believes that he has seen the Watford man transform at an intensive training camp.

Milun said to BoyleSports Boxing Odds that AJ is technically flawless, but he needs good tactics. A good fight will be won by using the right tactics.

"AJ is the greatest technical boxer. He does everything perfectly; jabs and hooks, uppercuts – AJ looks flawless. If they give him good tactics, he will win easily.

"This time, the whole camp is different. It's different. It was only 15 rounds. We sparred, me and AJ. It was very explosive.

Croat Milun said: "I told AJ that you have to bully Usyk. You can't box him." Everyone knows this.

"Maybe Usyk will anticipate that - he seems heavier this time. But not as heavy as AJ.

"He lost only four rounds last year." It's not that much. He can catch him in 12 rounds of pressure, and he can beat Usyk."
