Oleksandr Usyk beat Anthony Joshua with a unanimous points decision to become a two-weight world champion for the WBA, IBF and WBO world heavyweights titles on Saturday. It was upsetting to Joshua and fans to social media to share their opinions.
The Ukrainian showed good footwork and quick combinations to gain points. The judges’ scores were 117-112, 116-112, 115-113 in front of Joshua’s 66,227-strong home crowd at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.
This defeat is hard for Joshua, who has lost the titles for a second time in two years. This shock defeat ended his hopes of fighting English rival Tyson Fury for all four world heavyweight titles next year. Something that fans were quick to point out.
Oleksandr Usyk stuns Anthony Joshua:Funniest memes and reactions
Usyk, 34-year-old, harmed Joshua, 31, especially in the third and seventh rounds. He almost gets the knockout in a furious attack in the 12th round. Joshua couldn’t threaten Usyk, as the Ukrainian was quicker and more elusive.
Now Usyk, who won the titles in just his third fight at heavyweight after unifying all four world cruiserweight titles in 2018, could face WBC champion Fury or Deontay Wilder. Fury is going to defend his title in a third fight against the American. Here, check out the funniest memes and reactions.
