Fans began to wonder if Usyk weighed as much.
Check out the following...
How much weight does Oleksandr Usyk have?
There are many conflicting reports about Oleksandr Usyk’s weight before the iconic clash in Saudi Arabia.
According to reports, the Ukrainian machine weighs in at 100kg. This converts into about 220 pounds.
Amir Khan, a British star, claims that Joshua's southpaw boxer has gained 15kg since their last encounter.
This would mean Usyk's weight would rise to 254lbs, a stone more than what AJ weighed last September in their first clash.
What did Amir Khan have to say about Oleksandr Uzyk's weight?
When talkSPORT asked Amir Khan about Usyk's weight gain, Khan confirmed it.
The former champion replied, "Yes, it's true.
"I believe I must have revealed that secret to someone, and then it went into the media.
He looked great. He appeared a lot larger and thicker. He was much larger than most people who gain weight but are still quite soft. He felt strong and put on the weight well.
"He claims he has gained 15 kilos since his last fight. Is that going to slow him? I don't believe so. He shadow boxed, I saw him on pads, and he looked great. His footwork is amazing.
