Post-fight, in a conversation with Eddie Hearn, Joshua initially stated, "Usyk was the clear winner." However, his view later softened to considering the match as potentially a draw, influenced by others' perspectives. Hearn himself provided a detailed analysis during an interview with BoxNation: "Most people think Usyk won the fight but I thought it was a fight of two halves."
The match has set the stage for significant future contests. Both fighters have shown interest in a rematch that might occur later this year. Moreover, complications with the IBF title could lead to Joshua fighting for the likely vacant title against Filip Hrgovic.
