Anthony Joshua’s enigmatic post after Fury-Usyk fight

Saturday night in Riyadh was a boxing clash worthy of crowing an undisputed heavyweight world champion. Oleksandr Usyk was a worthy winner, although only securing a narrow split decision victory over Tyson Fury.

Despite being smaller than Fury, Usyk started strong, endured a tough middle phase, before rallying back, even forcing Fury into a standing count in the ninth round. This win makes Usyk the first boxer to simultaneously hold all four major heavyweight belts since Lennox Lewis in 2000.
