      Much, much better from AJ, great fight, but only one winner.

      Usyk is immense.

        AJ free stylin. But accepting the result and complimenting Usyk.

          Usyk is a special, special fighter

          Watching Usyk continually pivot away from Joshua was a joy to behold. Heavyweights shouldn't be able to move like that.

            I'm gonna assume that's Joshua retirement speech?

              Yeah, I'm not an expert (like you boxing bores ).

              But I thought Joshua was excellent tonight, however, Usyk is just incredible. I'm not sure Joshua could have put in a better performance. He knows it as well. But the result wasnt ever in doubt. Usyk just does not stop moving.

              Would be well up for seeing Usyk v Fury.

              Usyk is an amazing talent, and then, the well that he is drinking from, one where he is literally fighting a war, nobody can compete with that.

                Usyk v Fury has to happen.

                I agree with what was said there, I actually think that is the best I have ever seen Joshia fight. How does he find motivation from here? I think he has regained respect tonight, he went toe to toe, he asked some questions and he lost. No shame in that.

                As for Usyk, he basically said unless Fury will fight him he is done.

                  Absolutely bizarre behaviour from him tbh.

                  Usyk was brilliant, yet again, fights a bit like an amateur in style with the movement and just looking to score all the time.

                  Like to see Fury against him, think he’d use his size far better than Joshua

                    He was ****ed at the end. He almost had Usyk, but just when it looked possible Usyk came out stronger than ever.

                    TBH - I quite liked seeing the real AJ. He is normally so inexpressive. Swearing like a trooper.

                    It came from the fact that he knows he gave it everything, followed his plan perfectly, fought really well, and still did not come close to winning. He was done at the end, and his team should have managed him better in those moments. He just needed to wait until after Usyk had enjoyed his moment of victory.

                    Usyk seemed pretty bemused.

                        That was embarrassing stuff from Joshua at the end, outclassed in the ring and made a cunt of himself after the fight.

                          yeah it looked that way but imo i think his emotions took over and i kind of feeling for him... He's been built up by the British media over hyped, To the point where he's on par with Frank Bruno and that isn't a standard to be measured by!

                            Yeah, he lost control of his emotions last night. Was weird but you got to see probably for the first time how much this means to him.
