Anthony Joshua grabbed the mic after his resounding loss in the ring. What followed has been slammed as 'excruciating' and 'cringeworthy' from the former champ.
Moments before, he was seen throwing two of his belts out of the ring in a sour response to the judges' decision.Seconds after the final bell, both fighters showed respect for one another as they held up the flag of Usyk's Ukraine together.
"I ain't no f---ing amateur boxer from five years old that was an elite prospect from a youth. I was going to jail. I got bail and started training my ass off, because if I got sentenced, I wouldn't be able to fight. "I saw it with [Vasily] Lomachenko in your second fight with Orlando [Salido] there was unrest in Ukraine, there was civil war. Vitali Klitschko when he faced Danny Williams, civil unrest - under them circumstances, Usyk has managed to become champion. Champ champ! I just want to say: Bismillah."
