Anthony Joshua's "woeful" coaches blamed for Oleksandr Usyk defeat (Mirror.co.uk)

Joshua partnered with a new lead trainer for his rematch with Usyk and the Brit has been told he his coaches let him down for a second time after the loss.

A big part of Joshua's decision to partner with Garcia was because he wanted a good relationship between his new trainer and Fernandez. One of Joshua's former Olympic coaches, Paul Walmsley, thinks 'AJ' was let down for a second time by his corner staff against Usyk. Joshua, 32, was outpointed by Usyk for the second time in 11 months as he lost a split decision to the heavyweight champion in Saudi Arabia on Saturday night.

Anthony Joshua apologises, reveals reasons for outburst - P.M. News (P.M. News)

British boxer Anthony Joshua has apologized for his post-match antics and losing his cool after his defeat against Oleksandr Usyk on Sunday.

“I’m sure that Tyson Fury is not retired yet, I’m convinced he wants to fight me, I want to fight him and if I’m not fighting Tyson Fury I’m not fighting. “It was one of the worst heavyweight title fights I have ever seen. Fury, who has surprisingly announced his comeback from retirement after the fight, said he is open to an undisputed clash if the money is right. Usyk, on his part, has said he is ready to fight Fury and has called him out for an undisputed heavyweight clash, saying he would annihilate him. Joshua wanted to win not just for himself, as he said during the press briefing, but also for Great Britain. “I appreciate everyone watching at home, I’m a fighter, I’m not a normal person. I just want to fight everyone. “Yesterday I had to mentally take myself into a dark place to compete for the championship belts! I got bail and started training my ass off, because if I got sentenced, I wouldn’t be able to fight.” Joshua recalled his struggles at an early age and revealed he avoided jail to be able to continue his boxing career. “I’ll be the first to admit, I let myself down. “I wish @usykaa continued success in your quest for greatness.

Anthony Joshua tasted defeat for the third time in his professional boxing career on Saturday night after he was beaten via split decision by Oleksandr Usyk ...

During Saturday's bout, Fury even claimed he would beat both Joshua and Usyk in the same night if given the chance. Joshua also remains one of few elite heavyweights Chisora has not faced in his career. Joshua has fought 27 times in the last nine years, having turned professional in 2013, one year after winning Olympic gold. Joshua could be handed the chance to reclaim his titles in the future if Fury fights and beats Usyk in the neat future. The Gypsy King has been vocal on social media in his attempts to secure a comeback fight against Chisora and has even claimed the 38-year-old demanded £3million to fight him. With that in mind, here is a run down of six options that Joshua now has following his loss to Usyk, including retirement and a bout against fellow former champion Deontay Wilder.

Dillian Whyte earned his big shot against Tyson Fury in a world title fight this year, but was taught a humbling lesson in the ring.
