The Briton recognized the victory of our champion
Former world champion Anthony Joshua (24-3, 22 KOs) commented on his defeat Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs).
“Usyk, a fucking fighter, let’s applaud him. It’s just emotions. If you knew my story, you would understand my passion. I’m not some fucking five-year-old amateur boxer who was an elite prospect in his youth. I was going to jail. I got bail and started training because if I got convicted I wouldn’t be able to fight. Damn the passion we put into it all.”
“This guy beat me tonight. Maybe I could have done better, but it shows the level of hard work he must have put in. So please applaud him as our world heavyweight champion. Usyk is a phenomenal talent, three cheers in his honor.
Immediately after the victory over Joshua Usyk, he challenged WBC champion Tyson Fury to a fight.
Following the results of all twelve rounds, Usyk defeated Joshua by a split decision: 115-113, 116-112 and 113-115.
The Ukrainian won the twentieth victory in the professional ring. For Joshua, the second loss to Usyk was the third in his career.
Recall that the first fight between Usyk and Joshua took place in the fall of 2021. Then the Ukrainian defeated the Briton by unanimous decision and became the WBA/WBO/IBF/IBO heavyweight champion for the first time.
