"I deserved the criticism directed at me. We are elite fighters. If I put myself in the coach's shoes, and my fighter went six rounds with Jake Paul... I would send him back to the gym right away, tease him a bit, and immediately get back to work.
I would have thought: ‘How do you let this guy win six rounds against you? Are you out of your mind?’ But I can't go back in time. We must give Jake credit, he did well. I warned him of what would happen, but it took six rounds," Joshua is quoted by talkSPORT.
It should be reminded that Joshua knocked out Paul on December 20 in the main event of a boxing show in Miami.
