He said, “I think he’s a useless old dosser, Anthony Joshua. he got kicked to the gold medal in London. He robbed the Cuban blind in the first fight. So he shouldn’t even got the medal.”

“And then as soon as he stepped up a level, he got chinned. He tried to go over to America, where the real fights happen. And he absolutely obliterated by a fat kid on two weeks’ notice. So do I think he’s a great fighter? Hell no, I don’t think he’s a great fighter.”
