“He lost, and lost by knockout. Well, he lost the last two fights with Usyk by decisions of the judges, he showed spirit in the second. But he was knocked out by Ruiz, who agreed to the fight at the last minute. So I really think that Joshua has always been overrated, although he can bring in a lot of money, ”said the vlogger coach.
