Frank Warren says that ANTHONY JOSHUA entered his clash with Oleksandr Uzyk with the wrong attitude.
In his Tottenham brawl with the southpaw, the Watford fighter saw his WBA, WBO, and IBF heavyweight titles taken from him.
Anthony Joshua lost a close points match to Oleksandr Uzyk
AJ, 32, opted for a smoother approach than using brute force to outbox the operator - a strategy that shocked Queensberry Promotions chief Warren.
Boxing Social was told by the veteran promoter: "I fancy Usyk in a rematch. I felt that Joshua's side got it wrong in their last fight.
"I don’t believe they got it right at any point.
"I think Usyk has his number. I believe Usyk has an exceptional trainer in Lomachenko. He's a bloody great trainer and I think they will be up for it in more ways than one.
"I will be curious to see if AJ changes his trainer, but regardless of that, he has a lot to work on, and not just his trainer.
"His attitude during that fight, I don’t think was very good. He was not doing what a big man should have done."
Joshua will seek revenge on the undefeated Ukrainian, and SunSport understands that the pair's rematch in May is being planned.
The former unified heavyweight champion is determined to do a lot of damage on his London 2012 gold medallist.
Last year, he told iFL TV: "For me that's war. That's murder. That's war. Let's go out and hurt that guy."
"Take his soul until he is ready to give up. That's boxing, that's what I know.
"You should hit people repeatedly, and keep applying pressure until they realize you aren’t going anywhere. You’re here to stay.
"With the gameplan, that's all that I have at the moment, that one track. Stay on track, take this guy places he doesn’t want to."
Rob McCracken, the Golden Boy of British Boxing, has been removed from his position as head coach in the high-stakes rematch. However, McCracken has not revealed the identity of his trainer.
DAZN was recently informed by Eddie Hearn, Promoter: "AJ will do it himself in due course when camp begins, there's already been training in America, there's also been training here in the UK.
"He's, now he has a clear idea of what his team will look for the training camp.
He seems buoyant. He's excited. He feels like he has done the research. He feels like he's done the research.
"In the next three to four weeks, it will be time for camp. I'm sure that we'll announce who's on the team.
"It's an important camp for his career, and one that he's excited about."
