Showing professionalism and respect, defending WBA/IBF/and WBO heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (24-1, 22 KOs) and former cruiserweight champion Oleksandr Usyk (18-0, 13 KOs) took to the scales Friday afternoon in London. The two champions clash tomorrow night at O2 Arena in an intriguing matchup.

 

Joshua, last seen dispatching Kubrat Pulev nine months ago, tipped the scales at 240 IBS.

 

Usyk weighed in at 221, the highest of his professional career.

 

Joshua, favored at close to 4-1, is expected to use his edge in power against boxer-puncher Usyk. If he chooses to box and Usyk survives the early rounds, an upset could happen.

 

WBO cruiserweight titleholder Lawrence Okolie (199 pounds) put his title and undefeated records on the line against tough Dilan Prasovic (15-0, 12 KOs).

 

Once beaten Callum Smith (175 pounds) makes his debut in the light heavyweight division against Leni Castillo (21-3-1, 16 KOs).

 

Catch all the action on DAZN beginning at 11am PCT.
