The second and third ruled 115-113 and 116-112 respectively in favour of Usyk.

Joshua had boasted that he would defeat his opponent before the match.

He had said, “I wanted to overcome my opponent, whether it’s Usyk or anybody else, that was the mentality. I want to beat my opponent and crush him come Saturday,” Joshua said in his pre-match press conference.
