Oleksandr Usyk put on one of the masterclasses of modern heavyweight boxing when he defeated Anthony Joshua inside of Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, September 25th.
The build-up to the fight was based on Joshua’s ‘Road To Undisputed,’ with the Brit hoping to stride past the Ukrainian and continue on to another major money fight against Tyson Fury or Deontay Wilder.
After Usyk calmly outboxed the now-former heavyweight Champion, Joshua will likely be needing to avenge the loss before moving forward.
After an entrance that fans were comparing to Apollo Creed in Rocky IV, Joshua would never quite get into the fight as he would’ve liked to.
There were moments where the former Champion looked as though he could start growing into the contest, but the precision and consistency of Usyk’s strikes proved that he is one of the P4P greats in the sport right now.
