It’s amazing that he can speak calmly and composed after taking a loss like that. I don’t like speaking calmly after a small embarrassing thing much less something televised. Not even an AJ fan. Just gotta show respect when it’s due
I do agree and respect that about him but for me personally that’s part of the problem with AJ. He fights very much like his personality...too chilled out and relaxed. I think he needs more anger and aggression when he fights because after all...that’s what fighting is about. With his measured and balanced attitude if he could get some controlled anger when he fights he would be far more dangerous in my opinion. But taking nothing away from the guy...he’s a champ no matter what your view is on him 👍
@@lukegill5558 That's so true. When I saw his fight, it pissed me off. You can see his getting battered but he never showed any anger in the latter rounds. Boxers always have that 1 or 2 crazy rounds where they try and go all out. He showed none of that. Exactly what I was thinking, if he jabbed alot of more with anger & aggression it could've turned out different. Even with Ruiz he did the same thing in the first match.
Patrick Howie I was NEVER a Joshua fan until this loss. I was going crazy when Ruiz knocked him out, being a big Ruiz fan and feeling Joshua overrated. Obviously the bet help. This has turned me into a Joshua fan, he took a ludicrously dangerous and risky fight, the public wouldn't have cared if he swerved one bit, and his humble and intelligent response to it made me warm to him. He took a tough loss in a competitive but relatively one sided loss to an all time great cruiserweight, I mean Usyk is up there with Holyfield in that division probably above Haye. I give total respect to how he handled this loss which the general public couldn't see happening. I hope he just FIGHTS Usyk in the rematch. Aggressive and utilizing his size.
I think Joshua needs a new trainer, somebody from the US with a shed-load of experience in the heavyweight division. McCracken has tried some kind of purist, Olympic approach, and Usyk, nine times out of ten, is going to win that one. Joshua has got to make more use of his size and the power of his right hand.
Mentality is half the battle, if you’ve been following Joshua as long as I have.. his loss to Ruiz changed his killer aggression in the ring to overthink if I press the gas to much I might get clipped. On the other hand, being to reserved can defeat you as well ..it’s all balance. Great fight from usyk nonetheless
@@alansmithee3236 I think your caps lock is stuck on mate, either that or you strangely feel the need to shout your point out. I think its a tad disrespectful to label AJ as just a bodybuilder too but then I guess you are probably one of those rabid Fury or Wilder fans who are incapable of any nuanced opinions.
I think Joshua’s always been a reluctant fighter and has had slow feet. He’s the wrong type of fighter for his body type. If Mike Tyson had his body, the world would be in trouble. AJ is a bit of a nice guy in my opinion. He’s not the baddest man on the planet. Joshua’s game needs to be more about timing, skill & finesse. That’s why he needs to lose weight and work on his quickness and feet.
He didn’t say that he won the 8 rounds, he said “going well”. Not getting knocked out or down, no shut eyes or cuts, against a killer like Usyk can be considered going well. Especially in HW. He’s just being real and doesn’t make any excuses, gotta respect that. Props to Oleksander, absolute machine tho!
None of them performed well, both are playing defensive game. Usky only try during the round 12. I know that anyone that made great attack will win the game is that is what happened
Exactly I have been saying this...just because Ruiz dropped him in the first fight he stopped his bulldog fight, AJ messed up by thinking he can outbox usyk who is very technical in that department, d only he could have won usyk was the bulldog tenacity fight to ko him completely.
He's been exposed as the hype job we all truely knew he was ...! Eddie has box full of them waiting in the wings ready to take Joshua's place ..! Joshua looks great on a poster or hitting a punch bag but that ain't boxing Alexander showed him what being a boxer is all about. ..! But poor old Joshua will listen to Eddie & his sychophantic entourage & believe it was just a case of going back to those never ending drawing boards...?
@@TheKimRo Say what you want about wilder about his poor boxing skills. he would still take risks and be awkward and throw big shots and brawl and he has a good chin. Joshua basically tried to box of his jab against the faster more intelligent and highly skilled boxer. he is not Lennox lewis and he can't beat Usyk fighting like that. joshua did not fight to his strengths which is his power strength and weight. he fought to Usyks strength's and got badly outboxed. he should of implemented the same tactics to what fury did in the wilder 2 rematch. which was to jab and grab and wrestle and use his weight to tire him out and brawl on the inside and brawl on the break and repeat etc etc. at least with wilder you know he's going to put the pressure on even if he's getting outboxed. he's always going to be awkward and throw big shots. he's not going to sit behind a jab and get schooled and do nothing.
I really luv how the champ handle his press conference very positive no excuses take the L get in the gym stay consistent learn and watch film of the 70's and 80's fighters "Respect Champ 💯"
I feel respect for Joshua - a great fighter with big heart. A smart person without any shade of disrespect, or arrogance toward his opponents who appreciates every experience and considers it as an opportunity for improving his drawbacks which is very wise.
@Nathan Aresti I agree, he never shows any respect or props to Usyk for being a sharper and better fighter. This is beyond disrespectful. Why cant he just say, He was a better fighter. The ego is off the charts.
AJ lacks aggression and doesn’t seem to have that killer instinct from the first bell it looked like his mind just simply wasn’t on the job it’s like he was there physically but not mentally just didn’t seem up for it to me
I agree with you. I needs to be vicious and selfish to win. He needed to hit and grab much like what Fury did to wilder. Frustrate Usyk. A.J looked for Usyk's head which is a harder target when he has an entire body to hit. Also i felt his foot work was just not good enough facing Usyk. What i wanted to see was an A.J who tirns counter clock along with Usyk. Neutralize Usyk's right arm with body shot and not let him land his left. I also felt that A.J gave up on his strategy when how energetic Usyk was.A.J lost at many levels
Id say it's solely psychological. His 'Mr sweet nice guy' image is what's hurting him and his game. He gives too much fuck how he appears to others and tries his ass off to accomplish that. But to be King of the jungle, you got to be the lion. His mentality is not of a man who thinks he's the best. He lacks confidence. He gives over pouring amount of respect to his opponents. And you're right, he doesn't have the aggression needed to be a killer. The only way he becomes that is when his opponent shows disrespect, which makes him mad. And this what he needs, to become fucking mad and stop that flowery sweet act bullshit. He should learn from Tyson Fury, that guy carries his ass like a real champ. People may say all they want that Fury is full of himself, cocky and bla bla bla, he gives zero fucks. But to be the champ, you need to feel like a champ and forget the rest.
That's exactly it, a champion a world beater has a certain mentality. Ali had the minds state, Tyson had the mind state. AJ just looks all smiles, his minds set doesn't seem tenacious enough
@Nick Nolte That’s not an excuse it’s a fact, his eyes was closed due to Usyk’s accuracy but he never used it as an excuse, he gave all credit to Usyk and admitted Usyk was the better man
@@littlemalcolm5876 then why bring it up if it's not an excuse? Not only that it's bs, go look at the final rounds his eye was open, there's Inswels for a reason. The arrogance to say, after being dominated, that he would still fight Fury and Wilder without HIS belts is impressive lol. Acting as if people are dying to see him fight lol without belts he's irrelevant. Fury already said he has no interest in that fight anymore. Also acting as if he wants to fight the best, belts don't matter very convenient now that he doesn't have any. Didn't seem that way, seemed those belts were pretty important when he was ducking Wilder turning down 50 million..
What a awesome attitude aj has even though the media keep trying to knock him down he just keeps coming back with positive comments..proud of you aj learn and conquer brother
If media were trying that they'd of asked harder questions, like how r u not experienced yet aj,or did ur tank fail u aj,y did u try to out box a natural boxer aj lol
The british media always try to belittle any athlete who has lost or met their match ,and as for being overrated that is a opinion not a fact ,you cannot fault his dedication and commitment to be the champion that he has been and as for learning his trade he really has not been doing this very long and in my eyes you never stop learning ..a champion who thinks he knows everything,is no champion at all !!
I agree AJ has a great positive attitude, but the media here were very tame. The questions could have been much more difficult. They didn't even pull him up on his 'gravy train' comments.
Aj is, as he so often points out, still a student, learning his craft. Usyk is a master, practising his art. And the master teached the student a painful lesson last night. Congratulations to the new, great Champion. Respect to the old one. Great fight!
How long can he still play the student card? He's an Olympic Champion 9 years ago, been a professional since and was winning amateur world titles since 2010. He's had 26 fights and fought Klitscko, Parker, Povetkin, Whyte, Pulev....can't hide behind learning all the time.
No no after d 1st round d coach said jab jab then right hand when he is stable, go listen to it again, Usyk will never be stable and allows AJ to land d right hand, AJ wud have just obeyed his warrior instinct and knock out d guy, imo d coach ruin it for AJ, you could hear him keep talking about jab all through to round 10
@@beedebawng2556 At the presser, his coach said AJ should have pressed Usyk more, why the f**k didn't he tell him that during the fight? He prolly did and the boy didn't listen

@@thesupernaturals1070 that's a stupid comment... if you like boxing, and aren't just watching it bcos your countryman is fighting and your country are watching... why can't you go against the grain, how many people assumed an AJ win based on nothing other then look. If you like boxing, why is it suddenly a negative to support the better boxer? Your too tribal. This ain't the world Cup ffs... and why can't fans of a more technical boxer stand by their stance? Many people believe within the match up of Fury vs AJ, AJ would win, simply again down to look over the more technical fighter... now that AJ has lost to a more technical fighter, of course they will come out and emphasise this. The fact that you don't understand makes me think your only into boxing when your countryman watch and fight.
He tried to outbox him the fool. He should of just gone in hard with the right hand 5/6 times per round. You can’t out box Usyk he s to fast n nimble next time more right hand like his trainer said follow the jab with the right hand. It took him about 6/7 rounds to throw the right !!!! He s got more power than Usyk he should of been throwing them right hand bombs from round 1. !!!!
official scorecards after 8 was a SD Draw, 1 judge had AJ, 1 had it a Draw and the other had it Usyk.. then all 3 judges gave Usyk last 4 rounds so technically he wasn't wrong.
The eyes are part of fighting. Every fighter wants to blind the eyes of other fighter. He may be using it as an excuse. But really, it's just a factor to consider in fights
Not a coincidence that his performance dipped pretty steeply after the ninth. His eye was fully closed no wonder usyk was going to the win those last rounds very convincingly.
He and his team got the tactics badly wrong. he didn't fight to his strengths he fought to Usyks strengths. he was never going to outbox the faster superior intelligent boxer Joshua is not Lennox lewis who could keep guys at bay with his powerful jab and his superior footwork. Joshua cant do that and he will never learn enough to get to a level where he can beat Usyk fighting like that. Joshua can only beat Usyk fighting 2 style's and that's jab and grab and spoiling like Vlad. or he should copy the same tactic that fury implemented in the wilder 2 rematch. which was to jab grab wrestle and use his weight to tire him out and brawl on the inside and brawl on the break and use his power. Both Chisora and Joyce did well better against Usyk because they wasn't scared to take shot getting on the inside to brawl him up and put the pressure on. Joshua was a sitting duck last night trying to sit behind his jab and build of that. he basically fell straight into Usyk hands and fought a style which favoured Usyk like i said joshua is not Lennox lewis. he need to find a way to use his weight and his power in the rematch.
Don’t compare him to greats. He’s hyped and doesn’t have the skill when against a technician. He’s losing because he has no idea how to fight when put up against someone who has IQ.
Usyk does a lot of the subtle things that are hard to pick up watching on the TV. His footwork adjustments to land those left hooks are on another planet. He’s on the same boxing ability level as Lomachenko imo
Christ you talk as much gobbledegook as Joshua does ..! These are just cliché lines fed to him by Hearns..! He talks utter nonesence ..bottom line he got s Boxing lesson from a real boxer ..Well done Alexander Usyk...are the words Joshua should be saying. !
@@lucawulzer937 he will leave himself wide open to flurrys of punches from usyk he's not quick enough on his feet and he's very chinny when usyks combos land

@@drinkwater9891 lol AJ got destroyed… he tried to let his hands go. Usyk made him pay. For every 1 landed by AJ. Usyk landed 2 to 3 shots of his own. Except in the last 2 rounds. AJ went into survival mode.
Ruiz did not take his soul. The problem is Rob McCracken! He made AJ fight a boxing match with the worlds best “Boxer” at this time. If AJ had reverted to what he really is a “Fighter” he would have beaten Usyk. But! Congratulations to Usyk.On the night he was better than AJ.
The way the big man speaks shows who’s the Champ ! Impecable ! Progress and improvement ! Respect the rival but keep in mind you put the bread on his table ! Wish you all the best ! Bless you and your family!
Class act! His attitude and appreciation for the sport and the lessons learned from it with his head held high is the reason I champion this guy..just world class all around. How can u not cheer for him..Godblesschamp
AJ needs another trainer to come in along side Robert McCracken. I understand his loyalty to McCracken but he has to think about his own health too. Boxing is a DANGEROUS game.
Thank you very much for this point of view. Remember what Tyson Fury did to his former trainer when he knew he was not giving him the kind of training he needed to achieve victory. He did that in spite of their level of relationship. He just has to let go. Boxing is a sport and a business. AJ is the CEO of that organization and he should be able to call the short in the best interest of the business. his image, his fans, and his health. He should be able to do critical self-evaluation and analysis behind the scene in order to make crucial decisions at the right time. AJ, good coaches abound in the US. Please begin to shop for one now before it becomes late. Your health and career future matter here.
This man is way too civilized. Way too comfortable being in this position having to do this type of press conference. There's absolutely no edge to him.
He's a champion, when he win and when he loses. Hope you a great comeback champ. I'm not really into fighting sports though, as it's all about harming your adversary.
@@barrybergisch1 he used to have those qualities which is why he's here where he is now but after ruiz 1 he became a lot more hesitant, too hesitant for his own good, hopefully he fights like he used to next time
This guy could lose again in the rematch and I swear people will still rate him as the best heavyweight. I personally believe the boxing federation and promotors are messing up his focus, but that's just a personal opinion.
I think he will lose. Unless he stops trying to outbox him, need to use his power to his advantage and get back to how he fought before Klitschko, using power not technique
What makes AJ the best heavyweight?Last night he had a boxing lesson.That was a science,a boxing science.I am tired of Joshua's"wise" words.Alexander is better boxer than him and you had the proof last night.Sorry about my English.
@@easy94883 yeah well if he gasses out anyway then he can try with more weight, he needs more power cause he clipped Usyk a couple times but he didn't hurt him at this weight
Don't over train. Just get on your toes and use the jab from the outside. You let Usyk get in your wheelhouse when you didn't need to. Hats off to Usyk. He is a great boxer. He took AJs reach advantage away with foot work.
Hes saying the right thing, needs to look at what he needs to do better and the mistakes he made that Usyk utilized. Great fight, both are amazing! Rematch gonna be 🔥
AJ Wasn't on his defensive like when he fight the rematch with Ruiz. AJ was more on the offensive and he knew Usyk is much better condition in punching him more. Good to hear he is motivated to bounce back. There will be a lots of work out and adjustments need to be done compared with the rematch with Ruiz. Tyson fury vs Usyk would be a great boxing fight and can last 15 rounds. I can't Waite to know who will be the undisputed heavy weight champion.
He has nonchalant personality which is great. He needs to understand how powerful words are, before the fight he said that “if I lose” .... you can’t have that type of mindset in a fight
I appreciate AJ’s attitude and his admission that Usyk enabled him to earn a learning experience. Having said that I don’t see him out boxing Usyk. I also didn’t hear any comments on Usyk wobbling him seriously early on. There’s also the fact that in the last round he was lucky time ran out or he would’ve been doing his best impression of the Cruiserweight Usyk knocked out in London.🤣
he never wobbled AJ, truth is that AJ fights with fear and lack the spirit of fighting as well as endurance. he gave usyk more damage physically on the face but he has no plans. i accept usyk being a better fighter by body movement and leg work.
@@markcynic808 Clearly not the point i'm making pal. I'm talking the lack of aggression & overhype. He had zero defence when hurt. When hurt he would freeze like a deer in headlights, walk back in a straight line and not hold and use ring crafts to recover. He would end up being stopped whilst out on his feet which would have happened here if he wasn't saved by the bell.
Aj fought Usyk's fight and lost. He sould have implemented his own plan. He looked lost at times and never capitalised when he has Usyk hurt. In short he just wasn't good enough when it mattered.
@Punchers Chance Correct he only just scraped through that one. I just don't get why he didn't work on his own strengths it's pure madness. Specially in a fight of this magnitude. He had Usyk hurt a few times but backed off crazy.
“I’m a different kind of animal yeah, I’m not a sulker” He didn’t even tap gloves or show respect to Uysk when the winner was announced.. sore loser like a spoiled child that doesn’t get what they want
Yeah, we all noticed the disrespect Joshua gave to Uysk when the winner was announced. I was embarrassed to be a Brit when he did that to a worthy champion. Uysk will knock you right out next time Joshua as he knows now that you are a pushover. Bye chump.
He was very disappointed after the decision sitting on his stool trying to catch his breath and recover just before the decision I don’t think he acted like a sore loser at all.
Except bisping actually couldn't see. Aj talkin bullshit. If he couldn't see because his eye was shut it would be even worse now, instead it's magically better after the fight. Excuses, excuses. He will lose the rematch aswell
No shame in that loss, usyk showed he is by far the best (boxer) in that top division, but AJ needs to be honest to himself and admit he didn’t impose himself enough and use his given gift of size and strength. Obviously usyk won’t just let AJ walk over him but I can’t help but feel the corner team didn’t tell AJ he was falling behind on the cards and that he needed to throw caution to the wind. Well done usyk, look forward to the rematch.
This is how a real champ reacts to a loss...his analysis is great ...he's calm and composed in loss...kudos...it was a great fight....he'll surely be back....
you missed the part where he melt down, insult usyk then throw the belts off the ring and run off...then embarasse himself in self agrandising speach on the ring while everyone booed him
AJ looks like someone that knows he got completely schooled. He knows the uphill battle he's got ahead to raise his game. The comment he made about not worrying about weight is wrong to me. He needs more agility and faster feet, not big muscles. Bottomline I don't see a hunger that all top sportsmen have.
@@charliehmi76 The way he adapted to Ruiz in the second fight; he'll study Usyk in great detail and come back with the tactics to beat him in the rematch
Wilder does absolutely nothing. We all knew this was a tough fight and mad respect for AJ for taking it.

Joshua loses against Usyk in a rematch. Loses against Wilder and Fury. Loses against Ortiz. Loses to a hungry Andy (meaning hungry for a title and weight cutting). I don’t see this guy ever winning the WBC.
Joshua got out boxed, and had no answer. Usyk isn’t Ruiz, both are professionals but that’s all they’ve in common. Usyk put on a masterful performance. If Joshua doesn’t remedy the faints, the rematch will likely go down the same as tonight. What a great fight

RESPECT 😂😂😂😂 this guy doesn’t have the heart of a champion, he’s a B fighter at best.
Needs a new trainer . Gone too slow ,needs a uplift
None of them performed well, both are playing defensive game. Usky only try during the round 12. I know that anyone that made great attack will win the game is that is what happened
AJ needs to get back to the dog mentality he used to have. Drop that theatrical ring walk, stay focused and get straight to it
Exactly I have been saying this...just because Ruiz dropped him in the first fight he stopped his bulldog fight, AJ messed up by thinking he can outbox usyk who is very technical in that department, d only he could have won usyk was the bulldog tenacity fight to ko him completely.
One of the greatest ring walks though, felt like a ring walk with a side of fight and not the other way around lol
At least AJ doesn't makes excuses like wilder
100%
He's been exposed as the hype job we all truely knew he was ...! Eddie has box full of them waiting in the wings ready to take Joshua's place ..! Joshua looks great on a poster or hitting a punch bag but that ain't boxing Alexander showed him what being a boxer is all about. ..! But poor old Joshua will listen to Eddie & his sychophantic entourage & believe it was just a case of going back to those never ending drawing boards...?
That was a terrific fight. Already watched it twice. Usyk was brilliant!
Twice? You got too much time on ur hands.
Usyk wont be able to stand the sixth round with heavy punchers like Wilder
@@segundaniel9446 are u kidding?
@@TheKimRo Say what you want about wilder about his poor boxing skills. he would
still take risks and be awkward and throw big shots and brawl and he has a good chin.
Joshua basically tried to box of his jab against the faster more intelligent and highly
skilled boxer. he is not Lennox lewis and he can't beat Usyk fighting like that. joshua
did not fight to his strengths which is his power strength and weight. he fought to
Usyks strength's and got badly outboxed. he should of implemented the same tactics
to what fury did in the wilder 2 rematch. which was to jab and grab and wrestle and use
his weight to tire him out and brawl on the inside and brawl on the break and repeat etc
etc. at least with wilder you know he's going to put the pressure on even if he's getting
outboxed. he's always going to be awkward and throw big shots. he's not going to sit
behind a jab and get schooled and do nothing.
@@segundaniel9446 wilder?! 🤣🤣 ge wouldn't land a glove on usyk he's worse than Joshua!
I really luv how the champ handle his press conference very positive no excuses take the L get in the gym stay consistent learn and watch film of the 70's and 80's fighters
"Respect Champ 💯"
I feel respect for Joshua - a great fighter with big heart. A smart person without any shade of disrespect, or arrogance toward his opponents who appreciates every experience and considers it as an opportunity for improving his drawbacks which is very wise.
@Nathan Aresti I agree, he never shows any respect or props to Usyk for being a sharper and better fighter. This is beyond disrespectful. Why cant he just say, He was a better fighter. The ego is off the charts.
AJ lacks aggression and doesn’t seem to have that killer instinct from the first bell it looked like his mind just simply wasn’t on the job it’s like he was there physically but not mentally just didn’t seem up for it to me
He had the same mentality when he fought Ruiz
I agree with you. I needs to be vicious and selfish to win. He needed to hit and grab much like what Fury did to wilder. Frustrate Usyk. A.J looked for Usyk's head which is a harder target when he has an entire body to hit. Also i felt his foot work was just not good enough facing Usyk. What i wanted to see was an A.J who tirns counter clock along with Usyk. Neutralize Usyk's right arm with body shot and not let him land his left. I also felt that A.J gave up on his strategy when how energetic Usyk was.A.J lost at many levels
Id say it's solely psychological. His 'Mr sweet nice guy' image is what's hurting him and his game. He gives too much fuck how he appears to others and tries his ass off to accomplish that. But to be King of the jungle, you got to be the lion. His mentality is not of a man who thinks he's the best. He lacks confidence. He gives over pouring amount of respect to his opponents. And you're right, he doesn't have the aggression needed to be a killer. The only way he becomes that is when his opponent shows disrespect, which makes him mad. And this what he needs, to become fucking mad and stop that flowery sweet act bullshit. He should learn from Tyson Fury, that guy carries his ass like a real champ. People may say all they want that Fury is full of himself, cocky and bla bla bla, he gives zero fucks. But to be the champ, you need to feel like a champ and forget the rest.
That's exactly it, a champion a world beater has a certain mentality. Ali had the minds state, Tyson had the mind state. AJ just looks all smiles, his minds set doesn't seem tenacious enough
You get it right. He needs the tiger's heart and the lion's aggression.
What else you need from the man, he did what he had to do, he shows that he has no excuses and ready to fight any of them. Love his personality
@Nick Nolte That’s not an excuse it’s a fact, his eyes was closed due to Usyk’s accuracy but he never used it as an excuse, he gave all credit to Usyk and admitted Usyk was the better man
Joshua was too slow in releasing his punches. He needs to train more in releasing quick punches
@@littlemalcolm5876 then why bring it up if it's not an excuse? Not only that it's bs, go look at the final rounds his eye was open, there's Inswels for a reason. The arrogance to say, after being dominated, that he would still fight Fury and Wilder without HIS belts is impressive lol. Acting as if people are dying to see him fight lol without belts he's irrelevant. Fury already said he has no interest in that fight anymore. Also acting as if he wants to fight the best, belts don't matter very convenient now that he doesn't have any. Didn't seem that way, seemed those belts were pretty important when he was ducking Wilder turning down 50 million..
he is scared in the ring. mentally gone.
What a awesome attitude aj has even though the media keep trying to knock him down he just keeps coming back with positive comments..proud of you aj learn and conquer brother
If media were trying that they'd of asked harder questions, like how r u not experienced yet aj,or did ur tank fail u aj,y did u try to out box a natural boxer aj lol
Lol overrated mate
The british media always try to belittle any athlete who has lost or met their match ,and as for being overrated that is a opinion not a fact ,you cannot fault his dedication and commitment to be the champion that he has been and as for learning his trade he really has not been doing this very long and in my eyes you never stop learning ..a champion who thinks he knows everything,is no champion at all !!
I agree AJ has a great positive attitude, but the media here were very tame.
The questions could have been much more difficult.
They didn't even pull him up on his 'gravy train' comments.
Aj hasn’t had the dog in him since Ruiz knocked him out
You stole this quote from dyllian white🤔🤫
For me AJ lost the dog after the Klitschko fight! Up until that point he hadn't been touched really and from that moment the change bega imo
That could be true but he lost his balls after the Takam bout. He also knows he didn’t deserve the gold so it’s all bs.
Man, this boxer has a stable and strong mind! respect Joshua! amazing
I gave Usyk 0% chance to be honest .. I take back all my words. Much respect to him! Never doubt him again
Much respect to you for your honesty.
Yeah man i was honestly shocked when I saw the odds. Of course I had joshua as the favourite but usyk was absolutely underestimated
I knew Usyk would win easily, I should have bet on Usyk winning as the odds were against him, I heard of multiple people making 2 grand on the fight.
@@holliswilliams8426 i just put 10€ on it for fun made 50€. I'm pissed that i didn't bet the house on him hahahaha
I still give usyk 0% chance against wilder fury or even ortiz
Aj is, as he so often points out, still a student, learning his craft. Usyk is a master, practising his art. And the master teached the student a painful lesson last night. Congratulations to the new, great Champion. Respect to the old one. Great fight!
It ain’t that sophisticated. Two men fought, and one got his ass kicked.
Aj looked scared for most of the fight
Then AJ shouldn’t act like he’s the master 🤷🏻♂️ got humbled
Student? Aj is like 31 years old
How long can he still play the student card? He's an Olympic Champion 9 years ago, been a professional since and was winning amateur world titles since 2010. He's had 26 fights and fought Klitscko, Parker, Povetkin, Whyte, Pulev....can't hide behind learning all the time.
Why do I feel like AJ didn't listen to his coach? You don't try to outbox the boxer, that's what the coach seemed to say
Pride. He seems stuck on trying to emulate what past boxers have done. That was the worst strategy.
Stop it already overrated mate!!!
Why do I feel like you're making shit up in your head? 😊
No no after d 1st round d coach said jab jab then right hand when he is stable, go listen to it again, Usyk will never be stable and allows AJ to land d right hand, AJ wud have just obeyed his warrior instinct and knock out d guy, imo d coach ruin it for AJ, you could hear him keep talking about jab all through to round 10
@@beedebawng2556 At the presser, his coach said AJ should have pressed Usyk more, why the f**k didn't he tell him that during the fight? He prolly did and the boy didn't listen
I love it when reporter asks his trainer what’s the next game plan or strategy and he says there is none.. 🤦🏼♂️
And that was the wrong answer coming from the trainer. AJ definitely needs new trainer and manager.
That was the same attitude during the fight.....clueless I thought.
One of the most one dimensional heavyweight champions of all time combined with a total lack of fire in his belly.
Spot on!!!!
FINALLY someone, other than myself, SPEAKS THE DAMN TRUTH 🎯
There is nothing else to say
Mike Tyson was pretty one dimensional as well apart from the speed. Honestly, he lost multiple times.
@@holliswilliams8426 holy shit, he had speed, movement, skills and a huge punch. if joshua could move like tyson he would never have been picked off like he was. he is so stiff! tyson had amazing side to side movement.
You have to admit that usyk is a freak of a fighter…….. a master of boxing 🥊
You say that now that he won.. I bet that you were betting on Joshua until you saw AJ getting outboxed
Pre Ruiz fight joshua would of destroyed usyk.
Don’t cry, usyk had an amazing performance. To say it wasn’t impressive is a joke.
Thats where AJ whent wrong, when he tried to out box Usyk he played into his game. Usyk won love it and Im Ukrainian AJ is GREAT!
I’m English but I wanted Usyk to win. I like AJ they’re both nice guys but Usyk is the better fighter and deserved to win.
@@Soul_of_Mischief who tf roots against their own countryman? Lol. Not saying you're a fury fan but it''s actually sad the amount of Fury fans gloating over this like this wasn't a loss for the UK in general.
@@thesupernaturals1070 that's a stupid comment... if you like boxing, and aren't just watching it bcos your countryman is fighting and your country are watching... why can't you go against the grain, how many people assumed an AJ win based on nothing other then look. If you like boxing, why is it suddenly a negative to support the better boxer? Your too tribal. This ain't the world Cup ffs... and why can't fans of a more technical boxer stand by their stance? Many people believe within the match up of Fury vs AJ, AJ would win, simply again down to look over the more technical fighter... now that AJ has lost to a more technical fighter, of course they will come out and emphasise this. The fact that you don't understand makes me think your only into boxing when your countryman watch and fight.
AJ ain’t great. He’s average
@@SnortingIcons not average he is one of the best in the world
He tried to outbox him the fool. He should of just gone in hard with the right hand 5/6 times per round. You can’t out box Usyk he s to fast n nimble next time more right hand like his trainer said follow the jab with the right hand. It took him about 6/7 rounds to throw the right !!!! He s got more power than Usyk he should of been throwing them right hand bombs from round 1. !!!!
😂😂😂😂😂
It wasn't him not wanting to throw, Usyk never allowed his lumbering frame to set and throw.
Agreed
He played it safe, should have been like mike tyson..get in there, knock em down
that would have allowed uysk to knock him out faster,face it AJ is weak minded and a glass jaw
Can't believe the man said first 8 rounds were going well 🤦♂️🤣
I know rigth I think he was blinded from round 1 but only realised it at round 8 rofl
5-3 after 8...
official scorecards after 8 was a SD Draw, 1 judge had AJ, 1 had it a Draw and the other had it Usyk.. then all 3 judges gave Usyk last 4 rounds so technically he wasn't wrong.
He didn't win, but he's a winner. Pure class.
I was a fan, but it wasn’t the eye: just say it is what it is. Uysk was winner by far. Great fight
The eyes are part of fighting. Every fighter wants to blind the eyes of other fighter. He may be using it as an excuse. But really, it's just a factor to consider in fights
Not a coincidence that his performance dipped pretty steeply after the ninth. His eye was fully closed no wonder usyk was going to the win those last rounds very convincingly.
@@user-lr4nd3hn7n shhhhh
Had 4 n 10 even. 1-3 Usyk,5-6 Joshua,7 Usyk, 8-9 Joshua, 11-12 Usyk. 116-114 Usyk. Great,FIGHT. Highly executed aggresive chest match.
Yeah it was clear Usyk outboxed AJ since round 1
Both fighters are respectful and the better man won tonight it was entertaining
The better looking man lost
You have your ups and down to be a great look at holyfield he lost and won look at mike tyson , don't lose faith in Joshua
Facts!
Well said
He and his team got the tactics badly wrong. he didn't fight to his strengths he fought
to Usyks strengths. he was never going to outbox the faster superior intelligent boxer
Joshua is not Lennox lewis who could keep guys at bay with his powerful jab and his
superior footwork. Joshua cant do that and he will never learn enough to get to a level
where he can beat Usyk fighting like that. Joshua can only beat Usyk fighting 2 style's
and that's jab and grab and spoiling like Vlad. or he should copy the same tactic that
fury implemented in the wilder 2 rematch. which was to jab grab wrestle and use his
weight to tire him out and brawl on the inside and brawl on the break and use his power.
Both Chisora and Joyce did well better against Usyk because they wasn't scared to
take shot getting on the inside to brawl him up and put the pressure on. Joshua was
a sitting duck last night trying to sit behind his jab and build of that. he basically fell
straight into Usyk hands and fought a style which favoured Usyk like i said joshua is
not Lennox lewis. he need to find a way to use his weight and his power in the rematch.
I’ve lost faith
Don’t compare him to greats. He’s hyped and doesn’t have the skill when against a technician. He’s losing because he has no idea how to fight when put up against someone who has IQ.
Usyk does a lot of the subtle things that are hard to pick up watching on the TV. His footwork adjustments to land those left hooks are on another planet. He’s on the same boxing ability level as Lomachenko imo
And that garbled bag of bollox, puts you on the same cuckoo cloud as AJ.
Usyk moves like a fkng squirrel.
@@markcynic808 hahah
How smart is Joshua for a boxer..one of the most reflective athletes I’ve ever heard speak about in my 55 years.. he’s a winner
AJ hss a phenomenal character. His ability to absorb adversity and use it as fuel to learn and progress.
I don't think he learned something... after passed fights
He keeps losing though.
He’s phenomenal at talking complete rubbish the man is delusional
Christ you talk as much gobbledegook as Joshua does ..! These are just cliché lines fed to him by Hearns..! He talks utter nonesence ..bottom line he got s Boxing lesson from a real boxer ..Well done Alexander Usyk...are the words Joshua should be saying. !
@@johnaldred6864 exactly that brother , couldn’t have said it better myself
If his game plan was more of the same after the 9th he was still losing, one judge scored it 113 115 what a joke it was never that close

Usyk is overrated, and will lose the belts in a few months..

@@drinkwater9891 lol AJ got destroyed… he tried to let his hands go. Usyk made him pay. For every 1 landed by AJ. Usyk landed 2 to 3 shots of his own. Except in the last 2 rounds. AJ went into survival mode.

RUIZ TOOK HIS SOUL. HES TOO SCARED TO TRADE NOW. WORRIED THAT HIS GLASS CHIN WILL GET SHATTERED AGAIN
EXPOSED AGAIN
Ruiz did not take his soul. The problem is Rob McCracken! He made AJ fight a boxing match with the worlds best “Boxer” at this time. If AJ had reverted to what he really is a “Fighter” he would have beaten Usyk. But! Congratulations to Usyk.On the night he was better than AJ.

Great attitude. Appreciate the no-bullshit (compared to Fury and Wilder).
AJ needs another trainer to come in along side Robert McCracken. I understand his loyalty to McCracken but he has to think about his own health too. Boxing is a DANGEROUS game.
Thank you very much for this point of view. Remember what Tyson Fury did to his former trainer when he knew he was not giving him the kind of training he needed to achieve victory. He did that in spite of their level of relationship. He just has to let go. Boxing is a sport and a business. AJ is the CEO of that organization and he should be able to call the short in the best interest of the business. his image, his fans, and his health. He should be able to do critical self-evaluation and analysis behind the scene in order to make crucial decisions at the right time. AJ, good coaches abound in the US. Please begin to shop for one now before it becomes late. Your health and career future matter here.

@@elijahdiablo7310 Yes. But AJ's been prescendented of doing so already. Rematch is gonna be even more lit.
AJ Wasn't on his defensive like when he fight the rematch with Ruiz. AJ was more on the offensive and he knew Usyk is much better condition in punching him more. Good to hear he is motivated to bounce back. There will be a lots of work out and adjustments need to be done compared with the rematch with Ruiz. Tyson fury vs Usyk would be a great boxing fight and can last 15 rounds. I can't Waite to know who will be the undisputed heavy weight champion.
24 rounds Usyk v. Fury, just working eachother out until the 23rd

Much respect to AJ. A humble man in defeat and victory. Let's go champ!
People tend to be humble after an ass whooping.
I appreciate AJ’s attitude and his admission that Usyk enabled him to earn a learning experience. Having said that I don’t see him out boxing Usyk. I also didn’t hear any comments on Usyk wobbling him seriously early on. There’s also the fact that in the last round he was lucky time ran out or he would’ve been doing his best impression of the Cruiserweight Usyk knocked out in London.🤣
They still rate AJ as a great lol
he never wobbled AJ, truth is that AJ fights with fear and lack the spirit of fighting as well as endurance. he gave usyk more damage physically on the face but he has no plans. i accept usyk being a better fighter by body movement and leg work.
One word overrated like,I have been saying all the time ..
Calm down James! What are you saying Usyk isn’t a good fighter???
All I got was pure denial from AJ, blaming his eye 😂 instead of admitting he got out boxed.
AJ lacks killer instinct, he's all smiles and too nice. I like the guy but I feel he's the 2020's Frank Bruno of boxing.
I don't recall Bruno losing to a cruiserweight.
@@markcynic808 Clearly not the point i'm making pal. I'm talking the lack of aggression & overhype. He had zero defence when hurt.

Aj fought Usyk's fight and lost. He sould have implemented his own plan. He looked lost at times and never capitalised when he has Usyk hurt. In short he just wasn't good enough when it mattered.
Bang on
@Punchers Chance Correct he only just scraped through that one. I just don't get why he didn't work on his own strengths it's pure madness. Specially in a fight of this magnitude. He had Usyk hurt a few times but backed off crazy.
“I’m a different kind of animal yeah, I’m not a sulker”
He didn’t even tap gloves or show respect to Uysk when the winner was announced.. sore loser like a spoiled child that doesn’t get what they want
Yeah, we all noticed the disrespect Joshua gave to Uysk when the winner was announced.
I was embarrassed to be a Brit when he did that to a worthy champion.
Uysk will knock you right out next time Joshua as he knows now that you are a pushover.
Bye chump.
He was very disappointed after the decision sitting on his stool trying to catch his breath and recover just before the decision I don’t think he acted like a sore loser at all.
Now we all know what Michael bisping went through !! And win the belt !!
Except bisping actually couldn't see. Aj talkin bullshit. If he couldn't see because his eye was shut it would be even worse now, instead it's magically better after the fight. Excuses, excuses. He will lose the rematch aswell

No shame in that loss, usyk showed he is by far the best (boxer) in that top division, but AJ needs to be honest to himself and admit he didn’t impose himself enough and use his given gift of size and strength.
Obviously usyk won’t just let AJ walk over him but I can’t help but feel the corner team didn’t tell AJ he was falling behind on the cards and that he needed to throw caution to the wind.
Well done usyk, look forward to the rematch.
So true, his corner team know8he was losing should have told him to go full force. Wither he still ends up losing or comes out with a knockout win
Yes men in his corner embarrassed that they gave him that strategy.
@Mr shelby don’t mention fury along with these true fighters uysk would play with fury
@@boxingexpert9919 hahahahaha.
Aj did not come with his own skills he is fighting the skills of Usyk instead of his own skills
This is how a real champ reacts to a loss...his analysis is great ...he's calm and composed in loss...kudos...it was a great fight....he'll surely be back....
you missed the part where he melt down, insult usyk then throw the belts off the ring and run off...then embarasse himself in self agrandising speach on the ring while everyone booed him
AJ looks like someone that knows he got completely schooled. He knows the uphill battle he's got ahead to raise his game.
The comment he made about not worrying about weight is wrong to me. He needs more agility and faster feet, not big muscles.
Bottomline I don't see a hunger that all top sportsmen have.
If that's his natural weight than it's okay. I think AJ needed to pressure early and go for the KO. He can't try to box a master boxer.
He got schooled...and...paid!
AJ doesnt know how to fight , AJ gets exposed, you cant win a fight with a jab you need to throw combinations too. Time for new Trainer .
Super cool that he chewed up all those treats into the mic!
What?
To bad, he couldn’t chew “AND THE NEW” Champ up like that.
He would've got knock out if they hadn't ring the bell 5s earlier
Dude stfu with that it was maybe 2 seconds early
Nah usyk just let the bell ring, no point for him to finish him like tbat when he already has the victory. He knew it and acted like a real champ.
i thought i was the only one who thought the bell was rang early
That round took exactly 3 min
6 second discrepancy.... Joshuas head was on a platter
AJ reminds me of that knight who gets his arm chopped off and say's 'just a flesh wound' lol
Eddie hardly says a word in this clip, rare footage indeed 😅
What is there to say? The bubble has burst
@@charliehmi76 He'll win the rematch. Id bet my last dollar on it.✌
What Bubble? AJ doesn't need myths to sell himself.
@@ketchup5344 Based on?
@@charliehmi76 The way he adapted to Ruiz in the second fight; he'll study Usyk in great detail and come back with the tactics to beat him in the rematch
Confused on Anthony’s Gameplan lol like did you really think you were gonna outbox usyk lol
Ego will get you. He also wanted to out bang Ruiz.
@@lediopolisx4710 he should’ve been the aggressor it seemed like he was fighting usyks fight
@@general7980 I think Usyks work rate was just too high for AJ to press him
@@general7980 usyk was moving backwards most of the fight. Countering aj. Aj was the aggressor he got beat by the better man
He was surprised by how sharp his opponent was. like Andy did in the first fight.
AJ is probably a nice lad. Usyk beats him worse in a rematch. Fury embarrasses him. Wilder tucks him in.
Wilder does absolutely nothing. We all knew this was a tough fight and mad respect for AJ for taking it. If I was AJ I would have the rematch try out power him (not fight usyk fight) and if he loses again sail off into the sunset with all the millions he has earned. Screw all the other guys they should of took their chance when they had it. A lot to f people have lost out on massive pay days yet AJ has it all weather his the best or not. AJ is the only winner in this generation of fighters.
Usyk would bully Wilder. Massively.
@@truckerd8167 🤣🤣 that awesome monologue = 0 likes. Again. Wilder tucks him in. AJ isn’t bad but doesn’t know how to move his head well enough for 12...

How long can aj and Hearn keep saying he’s learning? He’s been the heavyweight champion for ages now
He s becoming like Frank Bruno loved by the public. But just to nice. Hearn acts like they are best mates. When more losses start happening Hearn will drop him like a bad habit.
You know what I'm really really like his sportsmanship he doesn't backpedal he lost and who says he's learning from his loss a real champion
In the rematch Usyk will first outbox him, then knocks him out.
AJ will revenge his loss in the rematch with a knockout...
Man all that ducking wilder and fury most likely cost all of yall $200mill each honestly. No way in hell wilder should be fighting fury 3 damn times before once fighting you. Come on bro
Facts bro
His trainer will be fired to preserve the brand. It also executes the nostalgic feeling they always try to create in sports like when Lennox did it.
Does AJ have a rematch clause in this one? Does Usyk have to give the rematch?
His trainer “should” be sacked. No doubt. He had AJ fighting like he did against Ruiz. AJ should have reverted to his former self.
@@inmyopinion651 yeah, there's a rematch clause and AJ is saying he wants the fight. Only see the same result meself.
AJ's not a boxer, he's a well managed athlete.
The hype train already back.. congratulations to usyk real talented boxer...
'hype train' LOL
“The gameplan is praying”. Good luck with that bud
Big gap in class. Hard to see AJ improving enough narrow that gap. More likely that AJ has to take risks and gets worn down and KO’d.
He can't but he has to run into him with power
Take toke the small hit to catch him big usyk master the movement has he don't have power Dchisor pave the way
People who say he got “completely” out boxed etc, you’re capping and you know it, his loss clearly fed your little agenda of being an edgy self acclaimed boxing fanatic.
He got out boxed but it wasn’t a world of difference, he’s a different appointment who created different problems. AJ adapted best he could in the ring but it wasn’t enough and the better fighter on the night won. You’re always a student when it comes to this sport and learning and adapting is what it’s all about.
hurt fanboy 😂
@@Shikhara_India Not a fan boy, I was a fan of Usyk’s performance, but ay easy to just say that without actually responding, kinda falls exactly into the type of person I was describing above 😂😂😂😂😂
(Just looked at your previous comments on this video.. confirmed it 😂)
@@Ghostzy01 i have too many followers like you...not a problem...🙃 not
crediting the better person and giving excuses for the one who lost decisively is exactly who you are...if that makes you think you are an expert so be it 😉
@@Shikhara_India Man has displayed his reading disability to the highest level
@@Ghostzy01 if that makes you happy casual🙋🏻♂️
Much respect Usyk, AJ though, still a big Fan, even in defeat so coordinated and calm. The comeback gonna be a TKO!!!
Wow I can't believed that he said he's still learning this game, are you for real.😇😇😇
The last time Joshua lost but stayed calm an went away an came back from a different angle an avenged the defeat to ruiz so Joshua mayb one of those fighters who only comes good wen he's been slapped about I'm not saying he would win a rematch wiv usyk but he's proved in the past he's at his best wen his pride has been knocked
Ruiz was over weighed tho
He won the rematch cause Ruiz was more interested in eating good after the second fight. He lost all the fire
Joshua loses against Usyk in a rematch. Loses against Wilder and Fury. Loses against Ortiz. Loses to a hungry Andy (meaning hungry for a title and weight cutting).
I don’t see this guy ever winning the WBC.
Usyk is not Ruiz. Ruiz was a fat overwhelmed champ. Joshua is an overrated fighter. He was outclassed and will be again in a rematch
Joshua got out boxed, and had no answer. Usyk isn’t Ruiz, both are professionals but that’s all they’ve in common. Usyk put on a masterful performance. If
Joshua doesn’t remedy the faints, the rematch will likely go down the same as tonight. What a great fight
This is a wat life lessons told to us not to give up and get back after defeat..reinvent more.risk more..time is always waiting for a man to improve eat the humble pie with joy..and get back on track
As the bell rang for the first, if AJ had felt the same way about Usyk as he so obviously did about McCracken here... 🤔
I salute both fighters and AJ... this was a blip. Hard to stomach initially BUT you will return from it 👍 Love and respect, pal 👊
This man's vry humble...love him because he loves people too
this guy man... proper Wolly
Truly humble lad
After listening to AJ the only thing I got out of it is a man coming to terms with being okay with losing. He's done wilder and fury spark him out
Damn, cant really argue with that. I do agree that there’s a middle ground between AJ and Wilders attitude to losing.
@@severusfloki5778 people forget that after wilder lost he went into hiding for about a year nobody heard of him he needed time to recover mentally he wasn’t ready to run it back so quick
Yes agree A.J you got a lesson in boxing tonight and what was your circus entrance about "you have been watching too many Rocky films as I've always believed Wilder is the best for me he should have finished Fury first fight and complacency second fight but in two weeks time Wilder will K.O Fury your see 🥊🥊🥊🥊
@@Vadeem3 that's okay. That's good. People also don't remember when Roy Jones got knocked out by tarver he didn't go into hiding and came back a couple months later and got washed by journyman glen johnson. A man he woulda toyed with in a previous time. Wilder is actually doing it right. Take time off and away. Reset yourself. We got a good fight ahead of us. All us fans win
@@severusfloki5778 wilder made stupid excuses wether they are true or not. But he believed them. That's all that matters. Joshua is okay with getting beat by a smaller man. He's okay with losing. Wilder is not. He want to kill fury for what he believes. It's mental as much as it's physical. And let's face it. Joshua doesn't have that part of it.
AJ takes a loss like a boss, doesn’t complain much just gets back in the gym and gets to work again.
🤔🤣😅🤣😂🤣😂🤣🙄
That’s because he’s got nothing to complain about.. he got that ass whooped in 4k
@@danielwakeman1333 8900
What he dont do is give credit to usyk. He got smoked
This was a great fight. AJ adjusted thru the first half and Usyk finished stronger. I don’t know why everyone is knocking him. Give respect where due. True champions
His eye never closed. They arent closed in this video. Eyes dont heal in 30 minutes. They swell up even more. He could see, but couldnt see Usyks punches cause he so damn CRAFTY
