Anthony Joshua Apologies To His Promoters…I Had A Marathon, Violating The Sex Ban Before Oleksandr Usyk Fight

Anthony Joshua should avoid a sex ban before his fight with Oleksandr Usyk, British boxing legend David Haye believes.

Haye, 40, famously imposed a six-week ban on bedroom antics before his fights, which included brilliant wins over Enzo Maccarinelli and Nikolai Valuev.

He said it gave him a psychological edge over his opponents because he didn’t believe they had made the same sacrifice.

But Haye says Joshua, 31, should avoid doing the same if he isn’t used to it before his crunch Usyk bout.

Haye told Daily Star Sport: “I had a six-week no ejaculation rule. It was something I’ve always stuck with.

In the ring it’s all mind games, it’s all looking at the psychological advantage.
