AJ loses world heavyweight title

Anthony Joshua’s second reign as world heavyweight champion has come to an abrupt end after an Oleksandr Usyk masterclass at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The Briton suffered only his second career defeat on Saturday night to follow his shock 2019 loss to Andy Ruiz Jr, leaving plans for a lucrative all-British unification showdown with Tyson Fury in tatters.

The unbeaten Usyk, meanwhile, becomes just the third man ever to hold world titles at cruiserweight and heavyweight level.
Joshua will be eager to quickly exercise his rematch clause this year, with Fury set to face Deontay Wilder for a third time in a fortnight.

Joshua tweets

Joshua tweeted a defiant message via his official account around 15 minutes ago.

He wrote: “Keep positive even if the world’s crumbling in front of you!

“London I love you & thank you each and every time!”

According to the group, Lalong should be punished for bringing the name of Pope and the Catholic Church to disrepute while giving his reasons for accepting to serve as Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council.
