You can see the footage below.

Moments after the abuse was aimed towards Hearn, he pointed at the fan and asked "what did you say?" before commenting that the person involved shied away when confronted.

Here's how social media reacted to the incident.

Eddie Hearn has since claimed Joshua "will want" an immediate rematch with Usyk as he looks set to trigger the rematch clause.

"It's going to be really difficult because Usyk's confidence will be sky high, but when you get to the level of Anthony Joshua, as we saw after the Ruiz defeat, there's no 10-round comeback fights and warm-ups," Hearn told Sky Sports.

"It's straight back into the fire and he will want to go straight back into that rematch. He will be an underdog in the rematch this time after that tonight, but that's what he does."

Hearn continued, saying: "It was a tough fight, a gruelling fight. He's not quite talking the way you would expect him to talk at the moment. Devastated. He's already talking about training again.

"They want to look at the eye socket. He says it's fine, but a devastating defeat.

"Obviously congratulations to Oleksandr Usyk. What a fighter. He put in a great performance tonight and the better man won."

Shortly after his loss against the impressive Usyk on Saturday evening, Joshua broke his silence with a social media post.

"Keep positive even if the world's crumbling in front of you," he wrote. "London I love you & thank you each and every time!"
