"I didn't feel the punch because that's what knockout is about, I don't fear pain," he said in his post-fight in a video on Sky Sports Boxing X handle. He, however, praised Joshua for winning via knockout, a feat which he said Tyson Fury could not achieve. "He (Joshua) was quite special, he stopped me, he did what Tyson Fury couldn't do. It wasn't my day, he was way better than me, so it's part of the game." Meanwhile, Joshua has said he has set his cite on a possible fight with the winner between Fury and Oleksandr Usyk.
