The best part was when Usyk pulled the Ukrainian flag off him before he went into his selfish rant, and that's all it was a selfish "this is meant to be about me" moment. Too many yes men around him telling him he's amazing, I dare bet Whyte retires him in the next fight
I thought it was a shame. Takes away from the fact that Joshua improved in there tonight and genuinely made good adjustments from the first fight targeting the body well. I’m sure he will regret it in the morning when he sees the negative feedback. I’m sure Usyk would have had something to say about his country’s plight and it was his moment to do so if that was his intention. To give AJ the benefit of the doubt, there’s no way anyone is thinking clearly after 12 rounds getting punched in the head and totally physically and mentally exhausted.
That AJ lad is a weirdo. I could never listen to him talk. Very strange dude but he went full David Brent on steroids tonight. Absolutely hilarious. Hearn must've been crying on the inside listening to that madness. Usyk didn't know where to look God bless em. AJ's always been a weirdo. Grabbing the mic after fights talking absolute nonsense. It just doesn't look as bad when you win. A creep.
Joshua’s outburst was cringeworthy I was embarrassed for him and it will badly tarnish his image. There is no shame In losing to such a talented fighter as Usyk . In my opinion whist Joshua clearly lost he showed a big improvement from previous fight but there are those special guys who have innate qualities which means you are never going to reach their level , life isn’t fair. Usyk flows and Joshua overthinks , thought is the enemy of flow.No matter what success AJ had in the fight Usyk come back with something.
He continues it backstage Wants to square up to an old man, luckily his team were there to keep him moving This content is protected AJ would be an absolute nightmare left to his own devices
He did something similar after the Ruiz defeat but a lot more low-key. Grabbed the mic when ruiz was getting interviewed.
I think he's concussed, guna say it now, no excuse for the way he was waffling shite but he's doing the jaw thing and seen him moving his neck ala Ruiz 2
Frazer Clarke was spot on - Someone from his team should’ve reigned him in and stopped that He’s just put in many months of work to come up short, emotions were high and he’s taken shots to the head… don’t let him go off on one with the Mic
