"I'm not a 12 round fighter? Look at me, I'm a new breed of heavyweight,” Joshua said. - All heavyweights, Mike Tyson, Sonny Liston, Jack Dempsey, say: "He does not throw combinations like Rocky Marciano" because I do not weigh 14 stone (90 kg). That's why. I weigh 18 stone (110 kg). I am heavy."
At the post-fight press conference, Joshua justified his behavior by saying that he was "very upset" because he put a lot of effort into the preparation and the fight itself.
