“Don Charles believes that Anthony did not cope with the pressure of the fans”, — write: sport.ua
“My duty and focus is on us, but I know Anthony Joshua very well. When I looked into the ring, I saw a man who looked like he was in a trance. He looked as if he was under hypnosis, as if he had been hypnotized. I’m experienced, I can pick up on things like that.
I thought, “Got it,” because I didn’t recognize the person I know. He was under hypnosis. It was said that Daniel would have stage fright, but it was Joshua who looked like a man in a state of shock.
I felt that Joshua was receptive to what was going to happen to him. He seemed to be in a completely different space. The reason was that there were 96,000 people there. That’s a lot of pressure, and he didn’t need it. He didn’t look ready for it, he looked haunted.”
We will remind, on the night of September 21 to 22, 2024, a fight between British heavyweight boxers Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois took place. In the 5th round, Dubois knocked out his opponent, having knocked him down three times before.
