Anthony Joshua judge told he should never work again after "disgraceful" score

A judge in Anthony Joshua's recent defeat by Oleksandr Usyk has been told by veteran promoter Frank Warren he should "never work again" after scoring a "disgraceful" 115-113 card in favour of the Brit.

It appeared to most watching the bout either in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia or at home on pay-per-view that Usyk had clearly taken the fight when his 12-round bout with Joshua went the distance on Saturday night. But judge Glenn Feldman disagreed with the general sentiment and ended up leaving the bout as a split decision with a very controversial scorecard in favour of Joshua.

Warren is aghast with the result and has called for Feldman to stop judging in the sport. There have been a number of controversial calls recently and luckily for Usyk, the score didn't end up leaving him without the belts after a bout where there were no more rematch clauses.
