I don\u2019t know why he was not moving around, like in the second fight with me.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe ran around and made sure he did not get hit, and if he did, he would grab and move around. So he had his strategy. But for this fight, it did not go his way.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was probably the wrong strategy. He probably underestimated him. Kind of like how I did with Chris Arreola (in May where Ruiz won via unanimous decision).<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I think Anthony Joshua is still there, still strong. I kind of felt he was scared and holding back a little bit. Maybe it was the lefty style of Usyk and how he moves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Joshua is expected to take on Usyk in a rematch next year in a bid to win his world heavyweight titles back for a second time.<\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, Joshua told his fans via his Instagram page, that he had watched his fight with Usyk and learnt his lessons.<\/p>\n<p>Anthony Joshua warned not to fight Usyk again<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
