Oleksandr Usyk edged out Anthony Joshua to retain his world titles after an enthralling rematch in Saudi Arabia.
Joshua, with new trainer Robert Garcia in his corner, produced a much-improved performance 11 months on from his defeat by the former undisputed cruiserweight world champion. But Usyk again proved to be too good as he was given the nod on two of the three scorecards.
Usyk dominated Joshua over 12 rounds in London. On that occasion, Joshua claimed he wanted to out-box his unbeaten rival only for his gameplan to fall apart as he conceded the early rounds.
