FESECKO: If Usyk was a competitor, he wouldn’t have won the 2nd challenge

Ukrainian judge Viktor FesechkoWorking in the fight between WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk (19-0, 13 KOs) and Briton Anthony Joshua (24-2, 22 KOs), he shared his impressions of the fight.

“9-10 laps were uncomfortable. If we take the first fight, then Alexander studied there very competently, and the second was a little worse. Of course Joshua is well prepared, rebuilt. Yes, the third round was intense. I think Sani’s corner worked correctly. They gave up on the tour. They gave Alexander to recuperate, to breathe. So I think the angle works well.

The size difference was huge. Joshua is very tall as a basketball player. He is also strong, hitting very hard, but less mobile. It attacks from any point. Alexander moves a lot and attacks from this position. So Joshua didn’t catch him, but of course there were some worrying moments. In the championship rounds, Alexander already acted confidently and proved himself.

It is difficult to say whether Usyk would have been given the victory if he had boxed in the status of a competitor. He is not even ready to answer this question. Even an Englishman in the war reacted here. If the American gave the victory to Joshua, the English gave it to Alexander, but very close. That’s why it’s hard to answer. It could have been in any direction,” Fesechko said.

Oleksandr Usyk defeated Anthony Joshua by split decision on August 20 and retained the belts.

Hearn surprises with statement about Jake Paul’s future after fight with Joshua

British organizer Eddie Hearn Reacts to speculation some boxing fans have that the fight will go ahead jake paul And Anthony Joshua it was fake.

“Even now people say, ‘Oh yeah, it was definitely a fixed battle.’ Today a guy commented on one of my posts: ‘Yes, it was definitely staged.’ I reply: ‘Do you realize you broke his jaw in two places?’

He may never be able to box again. Almost no one talks about this. People think it’s simple; They connect your jaw with wire, tighten a few screws, and move on. However, there were many fighters who broke their jaw and never entered the ring again.

And yes, “no, that moment might be real, but everything else…” – as if we were actors here. Everything was 100% real. There was no strategy, no agreement, no scenario.

Anthony wanted to get in as early and clean as possible. Unfortunately, the only time he actually hit cleanly was in the sixth inning. And unfortunately, this happened to Jake too.

We didn’t want this to happen to Jake. In the end, we wanted to win and end the war, but he accepted such dangers and took such risks on himself in the war. We hope he can recover,” Hearn said.

Joshua picks opponents for Jake Paul after brutal knockout

British heavyweight Anthony Joshua Who could be the next opponent of the American blogger jake paulIf he decides to continue his career.

“Jake’s got spirit. He’s got guts. He did everything he could, and my hat’s off to him because, first of all, not a lot of fighters would get in the ring with me, but Jake did. Secondly, even after he got knocked down, he kept trying to get back up. I trust him.”

So America, I believe you have a guy who could potentially come back again and his heart is still in it. He should dust himself off, come back, and maybe sell this arena in 2026. Maybe against Gervonta Davis or Ryan Garcia,” Anthony said.
