Anthony Joshua has ventured to forecast with audacity who will prevail in the match between Alexander Usyk and Tyson Fury.
The two heavyweight champions will square up in the ring in Saudi Arabia on May 18 to resolve their differences.
Before the fight was postponed because of a cut that Fury sustained during training, they were meant to fight.
Usyk will fight for the belts of WBA, WBO, and IBF, while Fury will defend his WBC title.
Joshua has predicted who will win the fight in remarks given prior to the fight.

On May 18 the two heavyweight champions will take to the ring in Saudi Arabia
Fury will be keen to show the world how good he is after a poor performance against Francis Ngannou
‘I’ve fought Usyk so I can only speak on what I’ve experienced with him – phenomenal fighter, I would say he’s gonna do a really good job,’ he told TalkSport.
‘I’ve never fought Fury, so I can’t speak on what it’s like to face him. Only speaking on what I know, I have to say Usyk will be victorious.’
Joshua has lost to Usyk twice on points and was heavily criticised for his performance in the first fight.
The winner could end up facing former champion Joshua, who has also revealed his shortlist for the next fights.
It remains to be seen as to who will come out victorious, but with less than a month until fight night, AJ has given his prediction.
Joshua impressed in his last fight, stopping Francis Ngannou, who Fury previously struggled against.
Having watched his fellow Brit make far easier work of Ngannou than he did, Fury will want to make amends next month, but he has his work cut out against the undefeated Usyk.
Usyk holds wins over Joshua (twice), Daniel Dubois, Derek Chisora and Tony Bellew in his career, and will be hoping to beat a fifth British opponent to cement his place as the best heavyweight on the planet.
