Anthony Joshua speaks on retiring if he loses again to Usyk

Date:

British boxer, Anthony Joshua has rubbished speculation that he will retire if he loses his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday.

According to Joshua, he will continue fighting even if he fails to retrieve his world heavyweight titles from the Ukrainian.

The 32-year-old said: “I respect people’s opinion. But I don’t want to retire.

“I’ve got one of the biggest fights of my life coming up and if you were thinking about retiring, it would put massive doubt in your mind.

“People will always ask the question but I still want to continue. I love it.

“If I was losing to some has-been, then yes. But it’s crazy to talk about retiring because I lost to one of the best fighters in the world. What sort of nonsense is that?”

Usyk defeated Joshua the first time with a clear unanimous decision win.
