Anthony Joshua advised to change his team after "shocking behaviour" in ring

Anthony Joshua has been advised to bring in a new team after his corner's "shocking behaviour" following his defeat by Oleksandr Usyk.

'AJ' was looking for revenge over Usyk in August but came up short at the second time of asking when he fell to split-decision defeat. Despite initially showing respect to Usyk following the loss, Joshua's actions came under intense scrutiny when he stormed out of the ring shortly after tossing his rival's belts to the ground in a frustrated outburst.

In an attempt to reconcile, Joshua re-entered the ring and grabbed the microphone but ended up launching into an X-rated rant while hitting out at his own critics. After the uncharacteristic display from Joshua many heaped blame on the heavyweight's team, including Frazer Clarke who suggested his team should have prevented his antics from escalating.
