Ukraine's Oleksandr Usyk dethroned world heavyweight boxing champion Anthony Joshua in his own backyard with a unanimous points decision in front of a sell-out 67,000 crowd at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.

Giving away height, weight and reach to the champion, Usyk, 34, proved too elusive for the 31-year-old Joshua and landed the much cleaner shots, finishing with a flurry in round 12.
