Joshua controlled the fight, but it was not the explosive performance many expected. The British heavyweight won by unanimous points decision, with two judges scoring it 117-111 and one at 118-111. This marks Joshua’s first win in over two years, following his consecutive losses to Oleksandr Usyk.

Despite some disappointment at the lack of a knockout, Joshua acknowledged that he needs to be his own biggest critic in order to improve. However, the Watford fighter was quick to call out fellow Briton and WBC champion, Tyson Fury, stating that “the ball is in his court” for their next match-up.
