Rico Verhoeven shared his thoughts on the technical knockout that was inflicted on him by Oleksandr Usyk. The Dutchman has announced his intention to appeal as he believes the fight was stopped after the gong and he is confident that he could have won on the scorecards, insisting that the result should be reviewed or the fight should be declared a no contest. “I specifically reconsidered stopping the fight after I read the comments. They really stopped the fight after the gong. I knew there were still 10 seconds before the gong. I understood that I just needed to work out this time on my feet. Raise your hands and block the blows. I think that's what I did. That's why the referee's decision shocked me." " Admit a mistake, count cards or declare the fight invalid. After all, such a stop makes no sense. Why stop after the gong After the bell I should have had some time to breathe,” Rico told Boxing News.
