“I Was Going To Jail, Got Bail”: Anthony Joshua In Big Meltdown After Rematch Loss To Oleksandr Usyk

 Nigerin-born former heavyweight champion, Anthony Joshua last night lost his rematch with Oleksand Usyk but that is not the only story: He had a meltdown, leaving completely dismayed with his antics.

After losing for the second tie on Saturday night in Saudi Arabia, Joshua after the match threw two heavy weight belts down before telling Usyk he won the fight not because he's strong but because he's skilled.

 

The British-born Nigerian, in an expletive-filled rant, discussed the fight, his career, the ongoing crisis in Ukraine, while also cheering up his nemesis, Usyk.

He began by referencing his youth and troubles with police as a teenager.

Pat of his rants read thus:

"If you knew my story you would understand the passion. I ain't no amateur boxer from five-years-old that was an elite prospect from youth,' said Joshua.

'I was going to jail, I got bail and I started training my arse off, I wanted to be able to fight.

'I'm stealing this Usyk I'm sorry, but it's because of the passion we put into this. This guy to beat me tonight, maybe I could have done better, but it shows the level of hard work I put in so please give him a round of applause as our heavyweight champion of the world

I'm not a 12 round fighter, look at me, I'm a new breed of heavyweights, Mike Tyson, Sonny Liston, Jack Dempsey, 'you don't throw combinations like Rocky Marciano', I'm 18 stone, I'm heavy, it's hard work. 

'This guy here is a phenomenal talent, we're going to cheer for him three times.'
