    Well, Slim absolutely blew this one out of the water.
    It turns out Eminem isn’t the only Slim who knows his tunes, as the USA fighter rocked out to A Million Miles by Vanessa Carlton.
    As soon as the crowd heard that little piano intro, they were excited to see what Slim had to bring to the stage.
    It got even better when we realised it was a mashup with September, by Earth, Wind and Fire.
    He lived up to his soundtrack with his performance too, as he got the knockout of the night against Faze Temper.
    “Making my way downtown, walking fast, faces pass and I’m homebound…”
    KSI is hungry.
    The British boxer, rapper, YouTuber, and entrepreneur claimed that his boxing career was far from over tonight.
    He named a list of potential next fights, and stated that we will see him fight again in January, but not against Jake Paul, who many were expecting.

    Fight farce
    Mexican Pineda is a professional in the boxing ranksย with two wins from seven bouts to his name.
    But he looked skinny, weak and spent his whole night complaining.
    In truth, the Mexican would have been better off paired up against KSI’s first opponent Swarmz, who he also embarrassed.
    Pineda, 23, was scared to throw a punch and seemed to hit the deckย every time KSI landed.
    The Mexican boxer also complained he was being hit in the back of the head on multiple occasions.
    Fight of the night.
    There were some brilliant fights on tonight, in what was an evening packed full of big punches, great music and tough brawls.
    Salt Papi knocked out Andy Warski within 30 seconds, which lead to Logan Paul recommending that the TikTok superstar fights his brother Jake for his next test.
    King Kenny vs Sensei was labelled a farce by many fans, as Sensei appeared to dominate the fight, before King Kenny was awarded the win via the judges decision.
    Deen the Great also put on a show in the second fight of the night, as he showed excellent boxing ability before face-planting a back flip in celebration.
    But ultimately, the fight of the night has to go to Deji vs Fousey.
    Deji went into the fight as a bit of an underdog, after the crowd saw how Fousey had shedded a lot of body fat in preparation for the big night.
    But with the crowd behind him, we saw a different side to Deji, one that was cool, calm and collected, with a deadly left hand that dominated Fousey throughout the fight.
    It was great to see Deji finally get a win, and therefore that, was the fight of the night.

    Knockout of the night.
    Knockout of the night from SunSport has to go to Slim, for the clean right-handed knockout on Faze Temper.
    There were some other greats in there, such as Deji on Fousey, but this right hook was something really special.

    KSI announces next fight date.
    Well, after he gave a list of potential next fights, including Andrew Tate and Tommy Fury, KSI also announced that his next fight will be in January.
    He explained his reasoning for not calling out Jake Paul just yet too, stating that there are many fights that need to happen before that one does.
    The Brit clearly feels that the Jake Paul fight will happen, but, it is about timing for him.
    KSI embraces his inner AJ
    He came out dressed in all white, and made his opponent wait just like AJ often does.
    Not only that, but he went on to use AJ’s quote in his post match interview…
    Man the first time was so nice, I HAD to do it twice”KSIvia DAZN
    KSI calls out FIVE fighters.
    KSI just called out Andrew Tate, the winner of Gib vs McBroom, Slim and Tommy Fury.
    Which would you like to see most?

    KSI goes two wins from two.
    And the Olatunji family go three from three, as KSI beat Swarmz and Pineda BOTH by knockout, and Deji beat Fousey by knockout too.

    Round three.
    BANG.
    Down Pineda goes again, and he is shaking his head, kneeling on the floor.
    A good uppercut from KSI sees Pineda down again, and THAT IS IT.

    Round three.
    How has Pineda made it to the third round here?

    Somehow, he is here.
    Total domination from KSI, who is going to go for the knockout for sure.
    Round two.
    KSI knocks Pineda down once more, but the Mexican is back up again.
    It looks like JJ wants the highlight moment, and Pineda wants to get out of here.
    Pineda is down AGAIN.
    KSI is doing PUSHUPS in the corner of the ring.
    Eubank JR enjoyed that one.
    Round two.
    KSI is on another level here to Pineda, the Mexican can’t even really get a shot back at the Brit here.
    Pineda looks scared in the ring out there.
    Round one.
    “KSI. KSI. KSI.” Rings out around the O2 Arena.
    KSI comes out all guns blazing, and knocks down Pineda early.
    Pineda is claiming that KSI is hitting him in the back of the head.
    Pineda looks like he has given up.
    This is embarrassing for Pineda, he is complaining more than he is fighting.
    Michael Buffer had a harder job in pronouncing Pineda’s name, than KSI had fighting Pineda”True GeordieVia DAZN
    Here comes KSI, again…
    For the second time tonight, looking as cool as ever, here comes KSI.
    He is making his opponent wait here, a tactic we have seen from Anthony Joshua in the past.
    He walks out to ‘Not Over Yet’, and has UK rap superstar Headie One rapping his verse in the ring.
    Luis Pineda comes out.
    He comes out with a Lucha libre mask on, and he is very tall, that is for sure.
    The legendary Canelo Alvarez will testament to just how brilliant Mexican fighters can be.
    The main event is here!
    Here we go.
    KSI against Luis Alcaraz Pineda.
    Michael Buffer is back.
    LET’S GET READY TO RUMBLE.
    He is THAT GUY.
    Isn’t he?
    Wow, so confident from the man who has conquered almost all avenues in his life.
    KSI spoke before the main event vs Pineda, as he expressed how proud he was of his brother, but also how great Slim was in the co-main event.
    Oh, and he had this to say on the main event:
    It’s time to end this, with another KO baby, Let’s go!”KSIBefore the main event
    Logan Paul hypes up the big one.
    Logan Paul did an interview with Ade Oladipo, and was questioned about his brothers potential fight with KSI who is up next.
    We all know it’s inevitable”Logan PaulOn KSI vs Jake Paul
    The big one up next!
    We have the main event up next.
    It is KSI vs Pineda!
    Can the Olatunji brothers make it 3/3 wins on the night?
    This one will no doubt be a tougher test for JJ than Swarmz was, but can he pull it off?
    Wow! Slim puts Temper down and out!
    Slim backed up everything he said in the pre-amble to this fight.
    There was a HUGE right hand from the hit man, who watched Temper bounce off the canvas.
    What a fight that was!
    Round two.
    Slim gets a big hit on Temper, and sticks his tongue out with eyes wide open.
    Really good from Slim so far.
    Big right hand, and the best punch of the night from Slim!
    SLIM THE HIT MAN WINS BY KNOCKOUT.
    Round one.
    Big right hand from Slim early in the first round.
    And it is getting wild with some big wide punches from both of these fighters.
    There is blood on the face of Faze Temper already.
    The first round comes to a close, and that absolutely flew by.
    Action packed. This is competitive.
    Faze Temper comes out the oppposite.
    It is very serious from Faze Temper.
    No Vanessa Carlton round here from the Brazilian.
    Brilliant from Slim.
    His ring walk song, is A Thousand Miles my Vanessa Carlton.
    Sing it with us…
    “MAKING MY WAY DOWNTOWN, WALKING FAST, FACES PASS AND I’M HOMEBOUND”
    This is certainly confident from Slim, and he is putting on quite a show.

    Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk 2 LIVE REACTION: AJ โ€˜let himself downโ€™, Tyson Fury ready for ยฃ125m Usyk DECEMBER fight

    ANTHONY JOSHUA says that he “let himself down” after his ring rant following the split-decision defeat by Oleksandr Usyk in their thrilling heavyweight rematch.An emotional AJ said said: “Iโ€™ll be the first to admit, I let myself down.
    “I acted out of pure passion and emotion and when not controlled it ainโ€™t great.
    “I love this sport so, so much and Iโ€™ll be better from this point on. Respect.”
    While Usyk could now fight Tyson Fury in a sensational ยฃ125m super-fight back in Saudi Arabia in December, with the Gypsy King ready to return for the unification.

    Former coach blames Joshua’s cornermen
    Paul Walmsley has blamed the cornermen for both of the Anthony Joshua’s world title losses to Oleksandr Usyk.
    Joshua’s former coach tweeted in the aftermath of Saturday’s bout: “Big Josh let down by woeful cornermen in both fights.”
    When asked by a fan what he would’ve done differently if he was in AJ’s corner on the night, Walmsley responded in depth: “Front foot pressure, staying in front of him as he moves.
    “Let his shots go as Usyk came in (Josh has the longer reach) therefore more chance of landing. Also easier to control ring space and put pressure on Usyk
    “Josh kept pushing away as Usyk came in giving him more space to move.”
    Rob McCraken was by Joshua’s side when Usyk beat him the first time at White Hart Lane.
    He was replaced by American mastermind Robert Garcia ahead of the second fight, but to no avail.
    Olek travels with lucky Liolia
    Oleksandr Usyk was spotted at the airport leaving Saudi Arabia after defeating Anthony Joshua for the second time.
    And Usyk’s heroics can be attributed to the lucky donkey that was given to him by his daughter Yelizaveta when they were separated due to the raging war between Ukraine and Russia.
    The Champ hasn’t let the teddy, in the form of Disney character Eeyore, whom he’s re-named Liolia – leave his sight ever since.
    Liolia was present during his victory over Joshua – and was right by his side again as he jetted out of the Middle Eastern region.
    The donkey’s head was seen poking out of Usyk’s Louis Vuitton rucksack while he collected his boarding pass from Turkish Airlines, in footage attained by Michael Benson.
    Usyk was all smiles despite sporting two black eyes from the enthralling spectacle on the weekend.

    Joshua-Usyk news
    Anthony Joshua has admitted he let himself down with his rant after losing to Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night.
    Speaking onย social media, he said: โ€œI wish @usykaa continued success in your quest for greatness. You are a class act champ.
    โ€œYesterday I had to mentally take myself into a dark place to compete for the championship belts!
    โ€œI had two fights, one with Usyk and one with my emotions and both got the better of me.
    He then went on to add: โ€œIโ€™ll be the first to admit, I let myself down.
    โ€œI acted out of pure passion and emotion and when not controlled it ainโ€™t great.
    โ€œI love this sport so, so much and Iโ€™ll be better from this point on. Respect.โ€
    Meanwhile, AJ’s promoter Eddie Hearn has revealed how he could be back in the ring later this year.
    He told talkSPORT: “Iโ€™d like to see him back out. Maybe even in late December.
    โ€œThereโ€™s massive fights for him. Dillian Whyte, Deontay Wilder.
    โ€œThereโ€™s so many fights for him in the top [ten]. Thereโ€™s even some Brits for him that are coming through in a couple of fights as well.โ€
    And finally,ย Tyson Fury has vowed to become the undisputed world heavyweight champ in a record ยฃ125million Saudi Arabia superfight with Oleksandr Usyk in December.
    Fury declared on Instagram: โ€œEngland has been relieved of its belts but there is a remedy.
    โ€œIf you want those belts back then send in the Gypsy barbarian.โ€

    Saudi showdown
    Tyson Fury has vowed to become the undisputed world heavyweight champ in a record ยฃ125million Saudi Arabia superfight with Oleksandr Usyk in December.
    Fury declared on Instagram: โ€œEngland has been relieved of its belts but there is a remedy.
    โ€œIf you want those belts back then send in the Gypsy barbarian.โ€
    And recalling his 2015 triumph over Usykโ€™s countryman Wladimir Klitschko, Fury added: โ€œSend me in and I will relieve the Ukrainian dosser of his belts like I did the last Ukrainian dosser.
    โ€œBut it’s not going to be cheap, if you want the best you have to pay.
    โ€œIt’s going to be very expensive, so get your f***ing cheque book out and I will relieve the Ukrainian dosser of the belts.โ€

    Stop Joshing
    Boxingย judge Glenn Feldman was confronted after he controversially scored Anthony Joshua as a winner against Oleksandr Usyk.
    Englandโ€™s Steve Gray wisely went 115-113ย Usyk, 35, and Ukraineโ€™s Victor Fesechko fairly called it 116-112 to his compatriot.
    But American Feldman stuck out having seen it 115-113 toย Joshua, 32, drawing criticism.
    In a rare moment, online outletย ID Boxingย managed to confront the experienced judge.
    Reporter Rob Tebbutt asked: “How did you score that fight for Anthony Joshua, Glenn?”
    Feldman responded: “Just the way I did.”
    Probed further, he then said: “I can’t, you’d have to talk to my supervisor.”
    Kell of a look
    Ebanie Bridges joked the outfit she wore to watch Anthony Joshua’s loss to Oleksandr Usyk was picked out by Kell Brook.
    Bantamweight world championย Bridges, 35,ย went to Boxpark Croydon with retired welterweight Brook, 36, for the huge heavyweight clash on Saturday night.
    On Sunday, Bridges then shared an image of herself with the ex-world champ and claimed he had selected her outfit for the evening.
    Speaking onย social media, she said: “He picked this outfitโ€ฆ #ThanksKell.”
    Prior toย AJ’s split decision defeat to Usyk, Bridges posted a picture of her andย Brook.
    And she added a flirty caption which read: “Imagine the kids ๐Ÿ‘€ #JustSaying”.

    Tale of the tape
    Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk could finally be set to clash following the Ukrainianโ€™s second win over Anthony Joshua last night.
    Usyk showed off his classย yet again to win in Saudi Arabia on a split decision.
    Taking hold of the microphoneย following AJโ€™s bizarre outburst, Usyk declared the only boxer in the world he isย willing to fight is Fury.
    The Gypsy King was keeping close tabs on last nightโ€™s brilliant action.
    And he responded by insisting he wouldย happily knock out another Ukrainian, having already dethroned the legendary Wladimir Klitschko.
    But how do Fury and Usyk stack up against each other?

    ‘Fair play to him’
    Conor McGregor leapt to Anthony Joshua’s defence over his “great speech” following defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.
    Following a repeat result in their Saudi Arabia rematch, Joshua, 32, raised eyebrows as heย produced a bizarre post-fight speech.
    Sky Sports pundit Carl Froch, 45, and even Joshua’s training partner Frazer Clarke, 31,ย slammed the incident.
    But UFC legend McGregor, 34, tweeted: “You are all going on ridiculous over this. That is a great speech right there.
    “Fair play to him he made it yet he is still in there keeping that cog going.
    “If they wanted the mic they couldโ€™ve tried get it back. Then he gives me a shout out. Great fight, thank you!”
    AJ did not mention McGregor at any point but hailed Usyk, 35, as the “champ champ” –ย a phrase the Irishman made famous.
    Joshua reflects on Usyk display
    Anthony Joshua has admitted he let himself down with his rant after losing to Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night.
    Speaking onย social media, he said: “I wish @usykaa continued success in your quest for greatness. You are a class act champ.
    “Yesterday I had to mentally take myself into a dark place to compete for the championship belts!
    “I had two fights, one with Usyk and one with my emotions and both got the better of me.
    He then went on to add: “Iโ€™ll be the first to admit, I let myself down.
    “I acted out of pure passion and emotion and when not controlled it ainโ€™t great.
    “I love this sport so, so much and Iโ€™ll be better from this point on. Respect.”
    Ring it in
    Tyson Fury has trolled Anthony Joshua for “talking absolute rubbish” in the ring after losing to Oleksandr Usyk.
    AJ was beaten on points for the second time in the space of a year to Ukrainian great Usyk.
    But following a repeat result in their rematch in Saudi Arabia, Joshua raised eyebrows as heย produced a bizarre post-fight speech.
    AJ spoke about his late start in boxing after avoiding jail, how he is heavier than legends of the pastย and Ukraine’s series of wars.
    Arch rival Fury, 34, took aim at Joshua, 32, by reposting a meme of himself on Instagram.
    The WBC champion is pictured on his way to the ring in his last fight, with the caption: “AJ running back to the ring to talk absolute rubbish.”

    Frazer Clarke apologise for AJ
    Anthony Joshua’s former team-mate Frazer Clarke apologised on his behalf for his lengthy rant in the wake of losing to Oleksandr Usyk.
    Speaking onย Sky Sports, he said: “As a gym friend and a friend in general, for anyone that is offended by what happened, I think I can just apologise on his behalf for the outburst.
    “He might be mad at me for saying this and the whole team might be mad at me for saying this, but I feel like he was left out to dry by the team. I feel like someone should have saved him.
    “It’s words but in the true reflection of boxing, that was Oleksandr Usyk’s time to celebrate that victory and he didn’t get to do it straight away.
    “I just don’t think that was right but once again, Anthony is a great person, he does a lot for a lot of people, he’s done a lot for me, but I feel like he had a bit of a bad one there and it was out of character.
    “There were no excuses, that was Oleksandr Usyk’s time. To the people around him, where were you? Someone should have jumped in there.
    “Someone should have stopped him and saved him from himself. It was only words, but it was the wrong time.”
    Punch stats โ€“ a look at the details
    In terms of individual rounds, Usyk outlanded Joshua in nine of the 12.
    AJ managed to land more punches in the first two rounds โ€“ but his only victory after that came in the ninth when his onslaught fell short of securing a stoppage win.
    Usyk ended with a total punches landed of 170 compared with Joshuaโ€™s 124.
    But Joshua actually did have a marginally higher percentage of punches landed โ€“ 25 per cent to Usykโ€™s 24.

    Usyk on Tyson Fury’s claims
    Oleksandr Usyk has hit back after Tyson Fury claimed he could beat the Ukrainian and Anthony Joshua in the same night.
    Fury mocked his heavyweight rivals following Usyk’s rematch winย on points against AJ in Saudi Arabia.
    Fury said: “After watching that, the both of them were s***e. It was one of the worst heavyweight title fights I have ever seen.
    “It was bulls***. Come on! I’d beat annihilate both of them on the same night. F***ing s***e.
    “Get your f***ing chequebook out because the Gypsy King is here to stay, forever.”
    Usyk,ย who wants to face Fury in an undisputed decider, had a blunt response.
    He quipped: “That’s what he’s dreaming every day. I’m gonna beat his ass.”
    Syk feeling for AJ
    Anthony Joshua was left visibly fuming after defeat to Oleksandr Usyk – despite Vasiliy Lomachenko’s best efforts to console him.
    Lomachenko watched ringside in Saudi Arabia as his close friendย Usyk beat AJ for a second time.
    And the double Olympic and ex-unified champion then appeared to congratulate Joshua on his performance.
    But the beaten and distraught British star was having none of it.
    Joshua said: “F*** that s***, good boxing has to win. F*** that s***.”
    AJ was then seen irate in the corner as members of his team tried to calm him down.
    AJ won’t retire, says Hearn
    Hearn was quick to shut down any talk of retirementย following Anthony Joshua’s defeat to Usyk, one of the finest boxers in the business.
    He said: โ€œPeople talked in the build-up about him retiring.
    โ€œWhen you lose a split decision to the pound-for-pound number one, why would you contemplate retirement?
    “Itโ€™s about passion. Itโ€™s about if you still want it. You could see how much he wanted it by his post-fight interview.โ€
    ‘Massive fight’ with Whyte or Wilder next for AJ, says Hearn
    AJ could return in a massive fight by December following defeat to Oleksandr Usyk again.
    The British superstar, for the second time in the space of a year, wasย beaten on points by the pound-for-pound No1.
    It leaves AJ out of the heavyweight title pictureย but still in line to face some of the biggest names in the division.
    Promoter Eddie Hearn toldย talkSPORT: โ€œIโ€™d like to see him back out. Maybe even in late December.
    โ€œThereโ€™s massive fights for him. Dillian Whyte, Deontay Wilder.
    โ€œThereโ€™s so many fights for him in the top [ten]. Thereโ€™s even some Brits for him that are coming through in a couple of fights as well.โ€
    โ€˜A crack in the armourโ€™, says AJ
    AJ added: โ€œit comes at a cost, a big cost. Itโ€™ll never break me, but it takes real strength for it not to break me. And tonight, thereโ€™s a little crack in the armour when I took a loss.
    โ€œAnd I think you just saw me just upset. And with the speech, I was just speaking about where I come from. I was on the roads, really.
    โ€œAnd I made a transition to boxing that really changed my life and brought me closer to God and brought me closer to meeting so many people.
    โ€œAnd I just kind of laid it all on the line with my speech. But letโ€™s not forget the champย Oleksandr Usyk. He put on a phenomenal performance as well. So credit to him.
    โ€œI canโ€™t remember what I said in the ring because it was just so passionate. But I just want to say thank you to him for taking part in a great historical fight as well. It takes two to tango. I was just so upset.โ€
    More on AJ post-fight press conference
    Joshuaย said: โ€œWhen youโ€™re trying to do things from the heart and everyone is just not understanding. It was just from the heart. I was mad at myself. Not anyone else just myself.
    โ€œSo I thought, Iโ€™ve got to get out of here because Iโ€™m mad. Like anyone, when youโ€™re angry, you might do stupid things.
    โ€œI was mad and then I realised, โ€˜Oh s***, this is sport. Let me do the right thing and come back.โ€™
    โ€œI just spoke from my heart. Itโ€™s been so tough. You see AJ holding it together, yeah, and Iโ€™m a hustler so I try put things together. Try work hard and put things together and make sure my teamโ€™s good.
    AJ emotional in post-fight press conference
    Anthony Joshua broke down in tears in his post-match press conference as he discussed his meltdown following his loss to Oleksandr Usyk.
    Joshuaย suffered a second successive defeatย to Usyk via split decision at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Saudi Arabia last night.
    After the result was announced, AJย threw the Ukrainian starโ€™s beltsย out of the ring before appearing to storm off.
    The Brit then decided to return to the squared circle to hijack the mic and deliver a bizarre speech to the crowd.
    The 32-year-old got emotional in his press conference as he explained this was โ€œfrom the heartโ€ and came as a result of him being โ€œmadโ€ at himself.

    Joshua to return before end of year
    AJ has revealed he wants to return to the ring in November or December just hours after suffering a devastating second loss to Oleksandr Usyk.
    The Brit was more competitive in his rematch withย Usykย for the heavyweight titles.
    Joshua has answered those questions by vowing to return before the end of 2022.
    Speaking after the loss, he said: “I will become three-time world heavyweight champion.”
    AJ added: “About who I fight. Come one and come all I will fight anybody.”
    AJ lucky to be held back from my team, says Usyk
    Anthony Joshua was lucky not to get beaten up by Oleksandr Usyk’s team as “most of them” are “horrible street fighters”, says the heavyweight champion.
    The 32-year-old Britย lost his cool after being defeated by Usyk for a second time.
    And Joshua’s behaviour hasn’t gone down well with Usyk.
    The Ukrainian, 35, says he still respects AJ – but says he was “bullying some of my team-mates”.
    Usyk said: “I feel nothing but respect to AJ. I saw him a bit emotional and like bullying some of my team-mates.
    “That would be a bare-knuckle fight that I don’t recommend him to do because most of them are horrible street fighters.”
    More on Fury vs Usyk
    Fury does have 32 victories, but like Usyk he is also unbeaten, with the only blemish on his record a controversial draw against Deontay Wilder.
    As for knockouts, Fury is the KO king with 23 knockouts to Usykโ€™s 13.
    The Morecambe man also has a huge height advantage, standing at 6ft 9in to Usykโ€™s 6ft 3in.
    It means Fury has a reach advantage too, with his arms measuring in at 85in while Usyk has a 78in reach.
    The two men do have different stances, with Fury an orthodox fighter and Usyk boxing as a southpaw.
    And a battle between the pair would surely be one for the ages.
    Boxing fans will now wait with bated breath to see if Fury truly does come out of retirement.
    Punch stats โ€“ a look at the details
    In terms of individual rounds, Usyk outlanded Joshua in nine of the 12.
    AJ managed to land more punches in the first two rounds โ€“ but his only victory after that came in the ninth when his onslaught fell short of securing a stoppage win.
    Usyk ended with a total punches landed of 170 compared with Joshuaโ€™s 124.
    But Joshua actually did have a marginally higher percentage of punches landed โ€“ 25 per cent to Usykโ€™s 24.

    However, it was ultimately futile as Usyk had his hand raised despite the judges scorecards being closer than many expected.
    And the beating Usyk inflicted on Joshua in the final nine minutes will go down in history as one of the great heavyweight performances in the key, championship rounds.
    Won and lost in the final three rounds
    It was the championโ€™s remarkable final three rounds which saw him clinch the win.
    After a breathtaking ninth round saw Joshua rock Usyk and land 28 punches to the Ukrainianโ€™s nine, the former undisputed cruiserweight champion came out for the 10th and dismantled all hope of a British victory.
    Usyk landed 39 punches in the 10th round โ€“ the highest number any fighter has ever landed on Joshua over three minutes.
    And he then went on to land a further 23 in the 11th and 17 in the final round.
    That totals 79 punches landed in the final three rounds โ€“ a spell which ultimately took the fight away from Joshua โ€“ with AJ landing just 29 over the same period.
    Usyk lands title defence
    AJ suffered another defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night.
    Theย Brit, 32, wasย outboxed by the magical Ukrainianย asย Usykย claimed a split decision victory โ€“ 113-115, 115-113 and 116-112.

    Saudi showdown
    Tyson Fury has vowed to become the undisputed world heavyweight champ in a record ยฃ125million Saudi Arabia superfight with Oleksandr Usyk in December.
    Fury declared on Instagram: โ€œEngland has been relieved of its belts but there is a remedy.
    โ€œIf you want those belts back then send in the Gypsy barbarian.โ€
    And recalling his 2015 triumph over Usykโ€™s countryman Wladimir Klitschko, Fury added: โ€œSend me in and I will relieve the Ukrainian dosser of his belts like I did the last Ukrainian dosser.
    โ€œBut it’s not going to be cheap, if you want the best you have to pay.
    โ€œIt’s going to be very expensive, so get your f***ing cheque book out and I will relieve the Ukrainian dosser of the belts.โ€

    Stop Joshing
    Boxingย judge Glenn Feldman was confronted after he controversially scored Anthony Joshua as a winner against Oleksandr Usyk.
    Englandโ€™s Steve Gray wisely went 115-113ย Usyk, 35, and Ukraineโ€™s Victor Fesechko fairly called it 116-112 to his compatriot.
    But American Feldman stuck out having seen it 115-113 toย Joshua, 32, drawing criticism.
    In a rare moment, online outletย ID Boxingย managed to confront the experienced judge.
    Reporter Rob Tebbutt asked: “How did you score that fight for Anthony Joshua, Glenn?”
    Feldman responded: “Just the way I did.”
    Probed further, he then said: “I can’t, you’d have to talk to my supervisor.”
    Kell of a look
    Ebanie Bridges joked the outfit she wore to watch Anthony Joshua’s loss to Oleksandr Usyk was picked out by Kell Brook.
    Bantamweight world championย Bridges, 35,ย went to Boxpark Croydon with retired welterweight Brook, 36, for the huge heavyweight clash on Saturday night.
    On Sunday, Bridges then shared an image of herself with the ex-world champ and claimed he had selected her outfit for the evening.
    Speaking onย social media, she said: “He picked this outfitโ€ฆ #ThanksKell.”
    Prior toย AJ’s split decision defeat to Usyk, Bridges posted a picture of her andย Brook.
    And she added a flirty caption which read: “Imagine the kids ๐Ÿ‘€ #JustSaying”.

    Tale of the tape
    Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk could finally be set to clash following the Ukrainianโ€™s second win over Anthony Joshua last night.
    Usyk showed off his classย yet again to win in Saudi Arabia on a split decision.
    Taking hold of the microphoneย following AJโ€™s bizarre outburst, Usyk declared the only boxer in the world he isย willing to fight is Fury.
    The Gypsy King was keeping close tabs on last nightโ€™s brilliant action.
    And he responded by insisting he wouldย happily knock out another Ukrainian, having already dethroned the legendary Wladimir Klitschko.
    But how do Fury and Usyk stack up against each other?

    ‘Fair play to him’
    Conor McGregor leapt to Anthony Joshua’s defence over his “great speech” following defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.
    Following a repeat result in their Saudi Arabia rematch, Joshua, 32, raised eyebrows as heย produced a bizarre post-fight speech.
    Sky Sports pundit Carl Froch, 45, and even Joshua’s training partner Frazer Clarke, 31,ย slammed the incident.
    But UFC legend McGregor, 34, tweeted: “You are all going on ridiculous over this. That is a great speech right there.
    “Fair play to him he made it yet he is still in there keeping that cog going.
    “If they wanted the mic they couldโ€™ve tried get it back. Then he gives me a shout out. Great fight, thank you!”
    AJ did not mention McGregor at any point but hailed Usyk, 35, as the “champ champ” –ย a phrase the Irishman made famous.
    Joshua reflects on Usyk display
    Anthony Joshua has admitted he let himself down with his rant after losing to Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night.
    Speaking onย social media, he said: “I wish @usykaa continued success in your quest for greatness. You are a class act champ.
    “Yesterday I had to mentally take myself into a dark place to compete for the championship belts!
    “I had two fights, one with Usyk and one with my emotions and both got the better of me.
    He then went on to add: “Iโ€™ll be the first to admit, I let myself down.
    “I acted out of pure passion and emotion and when not controlled it ainโ€™t great.
    “I love this sport so, so much and Iโ€™ll be better from this point on. Respect.”
    Ring it in
    Tyson Fury has trolled Anthony Joshua for “talking absolute rubbish” in the ring after losing to Oleksandr Usyk.
    AJ was beaten on points for the second time in the space of a year to Ukrainian great Usyk.
    But following a repeat result in their rematch in Saudi Arabia, Joshua raised eyebrows as heย produced a bizarre post-fight speech.
    AJ spoke about his late start in boxing after avoiding jail, how he is heavier than legends of the pastย and Ukraine’s series of wars.
    Arch rival Fury, 34, took aim at Joshua, 32, by reposting a meme of himself on Instagram.
    The WBC champion is pictured on his way to the ring in his last fight, with the caption: “AJ running back to the ring to talk absolute rubbish.”

    Frazer Clarke apologise for AJ
    Anthony Joshua’s former team-mate Frazer Clarke apologised on his behalf for his lengthy rant in the wake of losing to Oleksandr Usyk.
    Speaking onย Sky Sports, he said: “As a gym friend and a friend in general, for anyone that is offended by what happened, I think I can just apologise on his behalf for the outburst.
    “He might be mad at me for saying this and the whole team might be mad at me for saying this, but I feel like he was left out to dry by the team. I feel like someone should have saved him.
    “It’s words but in the true reflection of boxing, that was Oleksandr Usyk’s time to celebrate that victory and he didn’t get to do it straight away.
    “I just don’t think that was right but once again, Anthony is a great person, he does a lot for a lot of people, he’s done a lot for me, but I feel like he had a bit of a bad one there and it was out of character.
    “There were no excuses, that was Oleksandr Usyk’s time. To the people around him, where were you? Someone should have jumped in there.
    “Someone should have stopped him and saved him from himself. It was only words, but it was the wrong time.”
    Punch stats โ€“ a look at the details
    In terms of individual rounds, Usyk outlanded Joshua in nine of the 12.
    AJ managed to land more punches in the first two rounds โ€“ but his only victory after that came in the ninth when his onslaught fell short of securing a stoppage win.
    Usyk ended with a total punches landed of 170 compared with Joshuaโ€™s 124.
    But Joshua actually did have a marginally higher percentage of punches landed โ€“ 25 per cent to Usykโ€™s 24.

    Usyk on Tyson Fury’s claims
    Oleksandr Usyk has hit back after Tyson Fury claimed he could beat the Ukrainian and Anthony Joshua in the same night.
    Fury mocked his heavyweight rivals following Usyk’s rematch winย on points against AJ in Saudi Arabia.
    Fury said: “After watching that, the both of them were s***e. It was one of the worst heavyweight title fights I have ever seen.
    “It was bulls***. Come on! I’d beat annihilate both of them on the same night. F***ing s***e.
    “Get your f***ing chequebook out because the Gypsy King is here to stay, forever.”
    Usyk,ย who wants to face Fury in an undisputed decider, had a blunt response.
    He quipped: “That’s what he’s dreaming every day. I’m gonna beat his ass.”
    Syk feeling for AJ
    Anthony Joshua was left visibly fuming after defeat to Oleksandr Usyk – despite Vasiliy Lomachenko’s best efforts to console him.
    Lomachenko watched ringside in Saudi Arabia as his close friendย Usyk beat AJ for a second time.
    And the double Olympic and ex-unified champion then appeared to congratulate Joshua on his performance.
    But the beaten and distraught British star was having none of it.
    Joshua said: “F*** that s***, good boxing has to win. F*** that s***.”
    AJ was then seen irate in the corner as members of his team tried to calm him down.
    AJ won’t retire, says Hearn
    Hearn was quick to shut down any talk of retirementย following Anthony Joshua’s defeat to Usyk, one of the finest boxers in the business.
    He said: โ€œPeople talked in the build-up about him retiring.
    โ€œWhen you lose a split decision to the pound-for-pound number one, why would you contemplate retirement?
    “Itโ€™s about passion. Itโ€™s about if you still want it. You could see how much he wanted it by his post-fight interview.โ€
    ‘Massive fight’ with Whyte or Wilder next for AJ, says Hearn
    AJ could return in a massive fight by December following defeat to Oleksandr Usyk again.
    The British superstar, for the second time in the space of a year, wasย beaten on points by the pound-for-pound No1.
    It leaves AJ out of the heavyweight title pictureย but still in line to face some of the biggest names in the division.
    Promoter Eddie Hearn toldย talkSPORT: โ€œIโ€™d like to see him back out. Maybe even in late December.
    โ€œThereโ€™s massive fights for him. Dillian Whyte, Deontay Wilder.
    โ€œThereโ€™s so many fights for him in the top [ten]. Thereโ€™s even some Brits for him that are coming through in a couple of fights as well.โ€
    โ€˜A crack in the armourโ€™, says AJ
    AJ added: โ€œit comes at a cost, a big cost. Itโ€™ll never break me, but it takes real strength for it not to break me. And tonight, thereโ€™s a little crack in the armour when I took a loss.
    โ€œAnd I think you just saw me just upset. And with the speech, I was just speaking about where I come from. I was on the roads, really.
    โ€œAnd I made a transition to boxing that really changed my life and brought me closer to God and brought me closer to meeting so many people.
    โ€œAnd I just kind of laid it all on the line with my speech. But letโ€™s not forget the champย Oleksandr Usyk. He put on a phenomenal performance as well. So credit to him.
    โ€œI canโ€™t remember what I said in the ring because it was just so passionate. But I just want to say thank you to him for taking part in a great historical fight as well. It takes two to tango. I was just so upset.โ€
    More on AJ post-fight press conference
    Joshuaย said: โ€œWhen youโ€™re trying to do things from the heart and everyone is just not understanding. It was just from the heart. I was mad at myself. Not anyone else just myself.
    โ€œSo I thought, Iโ€™ve got to get out of here because Iโ€™m mad. Like anyone, when youโ€™re angry, you might do stupid things.
    โ€œI was mad and then I realised, โ€˜Oh s***, this is sport. Let me do the right thing and come back.โ€™
    โ€œI just spoke from my heart. Itโ€™s been so tough. You see AJ holding it together, yeah, and Iโ€™m a hustler so I try put things together. Try work hard and put things together and make sure my teamโ€™s good.
    AJ emotional in post-fight press conference
    Anthony Joshua broke down in tears in his post-match press conference as he discussed his meltdown following his loss to Oleksandr Usyk.
    Joshuaย suffered a second successive defeatย to Usyk via split decision at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Saudi Arabia last night.

    Speaking after the loss, he said: “I will become three-time world heavyweight champion.”
    AJ added: “About who I fight. Come one and come all I will fight anybody.”
    AJ lucky to be held back from my team, says Usyk
    Anthony Joshua was lucky not to get beaten up by Oleksandr Usyk’s team as “most of them” are “horrible street fighters”, says the heavyweight champion.
    The 32-year-old Britย lost his cool after being defeated by Usyk for a second time.
    And Joshua’s behaviour hasn’t gone down well with Usyk.
    The Ukrainian, 35, says he still respects AJ – but says he was “bullying some of my team-mates”.
    Usyk said: “I feel nothing but respect to AJ. I saw him a bit emotional and like bullying some of my team-mates.
    “That would be a bare-knuckle fight that I don’t recommend him to do because most of them are horrible street fighters.”

    Usyk lands title defence
    AJ suffered another defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night.

    Tyson Fury hinted he WILL return to the ring to fight Oleksandr Usyk… the day after his own retirement party.
    The Gypsy King watched with family and friends at another bash in Menorca as the Ukrainian defended his heavyweight titles against Anthony Joshua in aย split decision thriller.
    Fury – who turned 34 last week – had the day before posted snaps from a party at his Morecambe home,ย complete with birthday balloons and “Happy Retirement” signs.

    Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk 2 LIVE RESULT: Fury OUT of retirement after AJ loses to Ukrainian โ€“ latest reaction

    ANTHONY JOSHUA lost in his heavyweight title rematch with Oleksandr Usyk last night in Saudi Arabia. AJ was defeated by split decision, largely giving a better performance than he did in the first fight, but the Ukrainian was much too skilled for the Watford man.
    After the fight, Joshua threw down the title belts after the result was read out, and sparked concussion fears with a rambling speech in the ring.
    And the night got even more emotional for Joshua, who broke down in tears at the post-fight news conference in Jeddah.
    Usyk, meanwhile, called out Tyson Fury, who in turn has responded by telling those in charge of making the fight to get their chequebooks out.

    He did, however, repeatedly praise Usyk for his display in their rematch in his x-rated post-fight interview.
    Joshuaโ€™s behaviour left many stunned, including training partner Frazer Clarke.
    The Olympian said: โ€œMaybe he was concussed. I would have taken a dog to take that microphone off him.โ€™
    โ€œI apologise for the team, someone from the team should have saved him. Anthonyโ€™s a good person, it was out of character.

    AJ added: โ€œit comes at a cost, a big cost. It’ll never break me, but it takes real strength for it not to break me. And tonight, there’s a little crack in the armour when I took a loss.
    โ€œAnd I think you just saw me just upset. And with the speech, I was just speaking about where I come from. I was on the roads, really.
    โ€œAnd I made a transition to boxing that really changed my life and brought me closer to God and brought me closer to meeting so many people.
    โ€œAnd I just kind of laid it all on the line with my speech. But let’s not forget the champย Oleksandr Usyk. He put on a phenomenal performance as well. So credit to him.
    โ€œI can’t remember what I said in the ring because it was just so passionate. But I just want to say thank you to him for taking part in a great historical fight as well. It takes two to tango. I was just so upset.”
    More on AJ post-fight press conference
    Joshuaย said: โ€œWhen you’re trying to do things from the heart and everyone is just not understanding. It was just from the heart. I was mad at myself. Not anyone else just myself.
    โ€œSo I thought, I’ve got to get out of here because I’m mad. Like anyone, when you’re angry, you might do stupid things.
    “I was mad and then I realised, ‘Oh s***, this is sport. Let me do the right thing and come back.’
    โ€œI just spoke from my heart. It’s been so tough. You see AJ holding it together, yeah, and I’m a hustler so I try put things together. Try work hard and put things together and make sure my team’s good.
    AJ emotional in post-fight press conference
    Anthony Joshua broke down in tears in his post-match press conference as he discussed his meltdown following his loss to Oleksandr Usyk.
    Joshuaย suffered a second successive defeatย to Usyk via split decision at the King Abdullah Sports City Stadium in Saudi Arabia last night.
    After the result was announced, AJย threw the Ukrainian star’s beltsย out of the ring before appearing to storm off.
    The Brit then decided to return to the squared circle to hijack the mic and deliver a bizarre speech to the crowd.
    The 32-year-old got emotional in his press conference as he explained this was “from the heart” and came as a result of him being “mad” at himself.

    Punch stats – a look at the details
    In terms of individual rounds, Usyk outlanded Joshua in nine of the 12.
    AJ managed to land more punches in the first two rounds – but his only victory after that came in the ninth when his onslaught fell short of securing a stoppage win.
    Usyk ended with a total punches landed of 170 compared with Joshua’s 124.
    But Joshua actually did have a marginally higher percentage of punches landed – 25 per cent to Usyk’s 24.

    However, it was ultimately futile as Usyk had his hand raised despite the judges scorecards being closer than many expected.
    And the beating Usyk inflicted on Joshua in the final nine minutes will go down in history as one of the great heavyweight performances in the key, championship rounds.
    Won and lost in the final three rounds
    It was the champion’s remarkable final three rounds which saw him clinch the win.
    After a breathtaking ninth round saw Joshua rock Usyk and land 28 punches to the Ukrainian’s nine, the former undisputed cruiserweight champion came out for the 10th and dismantled all hope of a British victory.
    Usyk landed 39 punches in the 10th round – the highest number any fighter has ever landed on Joshua over three minutes.
    And he then went on to land a further 23 in the 11th and 17 in the final round.
    That totals 79 punches landed in the final three rounds – a spell which ultimately took the fight away from Joshua – with AJ landing just 29 over the same period.
    Usyk lands first defence of titles
    AJ suffered another defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night.
    Theย Brit, 32, wasย outboxed by the magical Ukrainianย asย Usykย claimed a split decision victory – 113-115, 115-113 and 116-112.

    Tears of joy
    Oleksandr Usyk was overcome with emotion after registering his first defence of his heavyweight titles.

    Hearn pays tribute to AJ
    Eddie Hearn has paid tribute to Anthony Joshua following his loss to Oleksandr Usyk.

    Furious AJ
    This was the moment Anthony Joshua lost his rag after his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia.
    He said of his actions in the post-fight interview: โ€œWhen youโ€™re trying to do things from the heart and everyone is just not understanding.
    “It was just from the heart. I was mad at myself. Not anyone else just myself.
    โ€œSo I thought, Iโ€™ve got to get out of here because Iโ€™m mad. Like anyone, when youโ€™re angry, you might do stupid things.
    โ€œI was mad and then I realised, โ€˜Oh shit, this is sport. Let me do the right thing and come back.โ€™

    Tyson Fury speaks
    Retired WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has had his say on Oleksandr Usyk’s victory over Anthony Joshua.

    AJ fumes
    Anthony Joshua raged after being told to “keep it professional” as he made his way back to his locker room.
    He said: “Who the f**k are you talking to?”

    Usyk addresses AJ’s rant
    Uysk has had his say on Anthony Joshua’s stunning post-fight rant.
    He said: “I didn’t feel much at this time when he was a bit frustrated. Just common emotions. It’s all good. We just need to communicate a little bit.
    “The good things that he said about me is something that I accept. But I don’t accept it deep to my heart because I want to stay a humble person.
    “I don’t want my pride inside me to go bigger. That’s something like that. I don’t believe in good words.”
    He added: “I have nothing but respect for Anthony Joshua. I saw him a little bit emotional and I saw him pulling some of my team-mates and that looked like a bare-knuckle fight.
    “And I do recommend him to do that because most of them are horrible street fighters.
    “I have 20 bouts and 20 wins at the moment. Some of my guys have 20 fights and 25 wins by the way of knockout.”

    Scorecards revealed
    The judge’s scorecards for Joshua’s second successive defeat to Usyk have been revealed

    Anthony Joshua addresses his post-fight rant
    AJ admits his astonishing post-fight rant was the result of all the pressure on his shoulders.
    He said: “When you’re trying to do things from the heart and everyone is just not understanding. It was just from the heart. I was mad at myself. Not anyone else just myself.
    “So I thought, I’ve got to get out of here because I’m mad. Like anyone, when you’re angry, you might do stupid things.
    “I was mad and then I realised, ‘Oh shit, this is sport. Let me do the right thing and come back.’
    I just spoke from my heart. It’s been so tough. You see AJ holding it together, yeah, and I’m a hustler so I try put things together. Try work hard and put things together and make sure my team’s good.
    “But it comes at a cost, a big cost. It’ll never break me, but it takes real strength for it not to break me. And tonight, there’s a little crack in the armour when I took a loss.
    “And I think you just saw me just upset. And with the speech, I was just speaking about where I come from. I was on the roads, really. And I made a transition to boxing that really changed my life and brought me closer to God and brought me closer to meeting so many people.
    “And I just kind of laid it all on the line with my speech. But let’s not forget the champ Oleksandr Usyk. He put on a phenomenal performance as well. So credit to him.
    “I can’t remember what I said in the ring because it was just so passionate, but I just want to say thank you to him for taking part in a great historical fight as well. It takes two to tango. I was just so upset.”

    Usyk speaks
    “I saw in round eight that he was feeling victorious already.
    “And I kept telling myself, ‘Keep calm, do not stop. You cannot stop. Do not stop.’
    “Some big things were at stake. Thank God the belts are coming back to Ukraine and the victory is with us and Ukraine won.”

    Concussion fear
    Training partner Frazer Clarke reckons Anthony Joshua’s bizarre post-fight rant could’ve been the result of a concussion.
    He said: “Maybe he was concussed. I would have taken a dog to take that microphone off him.โ€™
    “I apologise for the team, someone from the team should have saved him.
    “Anthonyโ€™s a good person, it was out of character. Someone should have jumped in and stopped him. It was only words at the wrong time”
    Lennox Lewis weighs in
    Lennox Lewis has urged Anthony Joshua to come again – with plenty of big fights still out there.
    He tweeted: “Great fight by Usyk. Congrats on the win. Definitely earned it. Good showing by AJ too..donโ€™t fret.
    “There are still big fights out there we want to see.”
