Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk: date, time, UK TV, tickets

Anthony Joshua's title fight with Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk has now been officially confirmed.

British boxing fans had been hoping this would be the summer Joshua would finally come head-to-head with Deontay Wilder.

That match-up has been put on ice, however, after Deontay Wilder's team triggered a clause exercising his right to a rematch that will take place this coming Saturday, July 24.

Joshua's opponent Usyk largely made his name at cruiserweight level. His only two fights as a heavyweight have ended in victories over American Chazz Witherspoon and Brit Derek Chisora.

How to watch Joshua vs Usyk?

Despite promoted Eddie Hearn's recently-signed deal with DAZN, all Joshua matches will remain on Sky.

The fight will take place live from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, September 25, on Sky Box Office. With the fight taking place in the UK, ring walk is expected for around 10pm. It will, as ever, depend on the length of time fights on the undercard take.

The price of the fight has not yet been confirmed but is likely to be £19.99

Where can I get tickets to Joshua vs Usyk?

Information on tickets is currently limited, with greater clarity expected upon full confirmation of the fight.

The originally scheduled fight gives us some clues, however, with general sale available through Ticketmaster.
