Oleksandr Usyk has revealed his new, unorthodox hairstyle ahead of his rematch with Anthony Joshua.
Now it has been confirmed that Usyk has left Ukraine in order to fight Joshua in the rematch and defend his heavyweight belts, we can begin to grow excited about seeing the two in the ring for a second time.
For Usyk, even being the former undisputed cruiserweight champion of the world, there can be no denying that the night he defends his titles will be the biggest night of his life and career so far.

To reaffirm himself as one of the finest fighters in the most-watched division in the sport would be quite the accomplishment – and that’s without factoring in that he’d be doing it by beating Anthony Joshua, one of the best of his generation.
You’d think that Usyk would want photos from the fight that he could treasure for life, but he’s jeopardised that by giving himself one of the worst haircuts you’re ever likely to see in your life.
We can only hope and pray that he doesn’t stick with this…
