Anthony Joshua disagrees with Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury result

Oleksandr Usyk beat Tyson Fury in their highly anticipated rematch but arch rival Anthony Joshua has disagreed with the judges unanimous 116-112 scorecards.The Ukrainian boxing icon delivered another impressive display in Saudi Arabia on Sunday morning, December 22, catching Fury with several clean shots and outworking his opponent particularly in the latter rounds. However, Fury started the fight brightly and many believed that the 36-year-old had done enough to make it a win or at least a draw for the British heavyweight. But after the final bell, all three judges scored it 116-112 in favour of Usyk, who retains his WBA (Super), WBO and WBC heavyweight world titles.Joshua, who could now be in line for a mega fight against Fury next year, scored the fight for DAZN and his final tally was 115-114 in favour of Usyk. Speaking after the fight, Furys promoter, Frank Warren, hit out at the 116-112 scoring in favour of Usyk. How could Tyson only get four rounds in this fight? Its impossible, Warren said.Hes very disappointed, as I am. Meanwhile, Joshuas promoter, Eddie Hearn, felt Fury had done enough to win more rounds on the judges scorecards. I couldnt split them, I thought it was a draw, Hearn said.I thought there were so many close rounds.I really struggled to split them, it was more of a chess match tonight, I had it very close. I just didnt feel it was an 8-4 fight.I thought it was very, very close but consistency from the judges, I thought that was good to see.The post Anthony Joshua disagrees with Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury result appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
