Good fight, not too much in it but right result. Better from Joshua who looked fit and rocked Usyk a few times but just not enough. Not reading much into the end of the fight scenes. Tired, emotional people can react badly at the end of an event.
Looking forward to a unification fight with Fury now.

Yeah 100%. He threw his toys out of the pram. Not a good look at all. Having competed at karate at a high level I've learned you ALWAYS respect both your opponent AND the decision of the judges, regardless of what you might think yourself. Respect is vital in martial arts and should be in boxing too. Win, lose, or draw. If you can't respect the decision, or your opponent, then you are not worthy. Simple.

Sorry to repeat, but if you know, then you know.

If you have competed for serious events in any physical discipline, then you know you HAVE to show respect for your opponent, regardless of your feelings for the outome.

I have lost bouts where I genuinely disagreed with desicisions, but I also have total respect for those more experienced than I am. That is why they are judges. So if I don't win, I don't win. Final. No tantrums.

And yes, I might not be AJ, but I have fought for England in the European Championships. So yes, I do know what ot is like.

i know about fighting and I also know about showing redpect for your opponent

AJ just embarrassed himself.

I didn’t respect Joshua before the fight but now he’s just a class a dick.

Totally lacking in any class.

He is finished. He can now go back to his mama house and count his pay check because this is hopefully the last time we see him.

P.S Fury will best Usyk.
 
Your lucky then because it wasn’t a proper knockout. He hit him on the back of the head.

But them two where proper cloggers. Lol

Smart bet all the same. Everyone was betting on Usyk KO, Joshua KO, Usyk UD, Hrgovic to KO zhang early etc, and none of them won.

I feel like a smug ****er.
