After the triumph, the Brit also put on a show of his own. He put on a “Pokémon” cartoon cap and threw a “Pokeball” towards Cyborg, alluding to the worldwide craze Pokémon Go app (watch the video below).
“Much respect to Cyborg. He gave me a hard time, he's a tough guy. But for Pokémon Go lovers, I just captured a Cyborg for myself,” said Page.
