Anthony Joshua's coach believes the star was looking to find an excuse for his defeat by Oleksandr Usyk when he launched into his post-fight rant.
'AJ' travelled to Saudi Arabia knowing he faced an uphill battle to earn his redemption against Usyk, and despite showing significant improvement, he lost on a split decision. After the fight Joshua was very frustrated with the outcome and embarked on a tirade of anger-fuelled outbursts including storming out of the ring.
He then grabbed hold of the microphone and launched an X-rated rant where he defended his defeat by explaining his journey to become a professional boxer while hitting out at his critics. And his coach Robert Garcia believes Joshua shouldn't have behaved in that manner but did the right thing by apologising and moving on from the situation.
