Is Anthony Joshua still a top-tier heavyweight?
Having avenged his maiden defeat against Andy Ruiz Jr. in 2019, it’s fair to see him doing the same against Usyk. However, Usyk is way different from Ruiz Jr. The Ukrainian legend didn’t let Joshua establish his dominance in a 12-round scrap.

‘The Cat’ outboxed Anthony Joshua for 36 minutes in London. Also, he didn’t suffer a single knockdown. Nevertheless, Joshua is still an A-lister and just needs one win to regain everything he had lost. That also includes the ticket to a potential clash between him and WBC champion Tyson Fury.
