Eddie Hearn feared taking the microphone away from Anthony Joshua during his post-fight rant after losing to Oleksandr Usyk would spark a riot in the ring.
Joshua, 32, was outpointed by Usyk for the second time in 11 months last weekend. It was a valiant effort from 'AJ' and he did have more success against Usyk compared to their first meeting last September, but was ultimately outclassed by the Ukrainian as he was handed his second defeat on the bounce.
The Brit was furious after the loss and had to be held back after almost getting into an altercation with a member of Usyk's team. Joshua threw two of his world title belts on the ground and stormed off after the decision was announced, only to return to the ring moments later to deliver a bizarre speech.
