Already talking about training again. They want to look at the eye socket, he says it’s fine.

“That was always the danger of the fight you overthink the fight, you try and be too technical, you don’t use your attributes and you don’t make your mark early enough in the fight.“ AJ’s desire is still there. “The fighter in AJ is already talking about, ‘I’ll win the rematch, I’ll win the rematch.’

“It was a tough defeat. Usyk was the deserved winner and he’s got to make changes in the rematch.“ He will want to go straight back into that rematch, he will be the underdog in the rematch this time after that tonight, but that’s what he does.

“He chose tonight to take on a pound-for-pound great. It didn’t work out, but he should get credit for that.
He was beaten by the better man and congratulations to Oleksandr Usyk.”
