Heavyweight: Anthony Joshua Congratulates Usyk, Apologizes For His Unruly Act

Nigerian-born British boxer, Anthony Joshua, has congratulated Ukrainian, Oleksandr Usyk after losing to him in a heavyweight rematch held on Sunday, IGBERETV reports.

Joshua used the opportunity to apologize for his unruly behaviour after the game.

Taking to his Facebook page, Joshua wrote;

"I wish Usyk continued success in your quest for greatness. You are a class act champ.

Yesterday I had to mentally take myself into a dark place to compete for the championship belts! I had two fights, one with Usyk and one with my emotions and both got the better of me.

I’ll be the first to admit, I let my self down. I acted out of pure passion and emotion and when not controlled it ain’t great.

I love this sport so so much and I’ll be better from this point on.

Respect"

This sounds much better than Bleep the haters. This should have come on that day, winning includes how you act when you lose. Thank God For Mercedes, Honda, BMW Range Rover , Volvo , Man and Toyota.

Shoutout to everyone who was ever passed off by others who looked more marketable but, you ended up being the whole bank.

He made an incredible transformation from petty criminal to professional boxer that’s laudable.
