Egis Klimas, manager of WBA, WBO and IBF heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk, commented on the victory of Anthony Joshua in the fight against Francis Ngannou.
"On the one hand, Joshua impressed me. On the other, it's boxing versus MMA. But Anthony seemed collected, he's in good spirits. He didn't fuss, he didn't show any emotion. I really, really liked that.
Does he seem to be a different fighter compared to his fights against Usik? We can't look back and say what he was thinking and how he was set up for those fights. Then twice the winner was Usik, but in the fight with Ngannou and in previous fights Joshua looked very good," said Klimas in an interview with YouTube channel iFL TV.
Recall that on March 8, Joshua knocked out Ngannou in the second round in the main event of the evening of boxing in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
