The former world champion spoke about the problem that helped identify the Ukrainian resistance.
Anthony Joshua lost to Oleksandr Usyk because he was in poor physical shape. The former world super heavyweight boxing champion does the thinking himself.
According to the Briton, he was not sufficiently prepared for the first confrontation with the Ukrainian. But after that I drew conclusions and fixed the problem.
“Losing the rematch with Usyk gave me the opportunity to pay attention to my weaknesses. I knew I had a problem with my physical form. In the fight with Usyk, he took the last three rounds out of 12, and we solved the this problem. After that, I “I went 12 rounds without getting tired. I didn’t champion anymore, I didn’t feel pressure anymore, so I could get rid of my shortcomings,” Joshua mentioned in Men’s Health.
Let us remind you that Joshua and Usyk had two fights. In September 2021, the Ukrainian won by unanimous decision, and in August 2022 – by a split decision.
Previously, Zhilei’s manager accused Joshua of not wanting to fight with his client.
