The rematch between the WBA (Super), IBF and WBO world heavyweight champion Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk and Briton Anthony Joshua will take place on August 20 in Saudi Arabia, according to the press service of the Matchroom Boxing promotion company.
The fight will take place in the city of Jeddah.
Last September, Usyk won three world titles by defeating Joshua in a 12-round unanimous decision fight. The contract for the fight included a rematch option, which Joshua’s team took advantage of.
