Anthony Joshua beaten by Usyk: Brit broke down at emotional press-conference

Anthony Joshua broke down in emotional press conference following his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.

In last night’s rematch, Joshua was unable to reclaim the heavyweight throne against Usyk.

Usyk proved why he is the world’s best with a sensational performance over the Englishman.

With that being said, Joshua looked a lot sharper compared to the first fight. Throughout the fight, Joshua found some success every time he went to the body.

Unfortunately, it was not enough to earn himself the win. The official decision proved to be controversial as judge Glenn Feldman scored the fight in ‘AJ’s’ favour.

Following the fight, in the press conference, Joshua was unable to hold back the tears after his impressive performance ended in defeat.

“I don’t feel anything,” Joshua said before adding: “I’m upset deep down in my heart.”

The Englishman’s post-fight rant seemed to have confused a lot of the boxing fans as well.

“Usyk is one hell of a f***ing fighter, let’s give him a round of applause,” Joshua said. “Sorry guys, look, if you knew my story you’d understand the passion.

“I ain’t no amateur boxer from youth, I was looking at jail. I’m stealing this Usyk, I’m sorry but it’s because of the f***ing passion.
