Anthony Joshua: Uppercut From Hell

It was a instinctive shot thrown at speed. His natural relex led him to throw it I don’t really think he put power behind it, of course his normal punches have natural power behind them but he didn’t throw the uppercut with all his power.

that referee was a sparring partner for marvin hagler, hardly a *****. that was a good stoppage. fights are stopped when a fighter cant intelligently defend himself. you say he got up twice, obviously if he didnt get up there would be no choice but to stop it, but in order to get up twice you have to go down twice also. each time he was hurt badly, in fact he was hurt before the first knockdown too. stunned between them.. if you keep getting hurt and dropped the ref should stop the fight as soon as you are not intelligently defending yourself. wlad was on the ropes, not clinching or punching back, just laying on the ropes. it was just a matter of time before he got clocked again. this is factual because he kept getting clocked over and over and now he was doing far less to defend himself. great stoppage. EXACTLY what I thought. great stoppage

I think one of the photos there is photoshopped - one with the elongated neck. Anyway, Wlad is in good spirits :boxing: https://scontent-lht6-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/18278811_10154484077765205_6010870111031150527_o.jpg?oh=a17ccb5e6233dc19e7f6b0f3e34b865e&oe=5987129A Leaving London with a feeling everyone's won Saturday night the sport, the fans and even I on respect. Cheers & I'll be back! Thats photoshopped too. He's actually in front of an all you can eat buffet.

I think the huge cheers he got from the Wembley crowd cheered him up, he probably wasn't expecting that on Joshua's turf. I was so glad that happened, he deserved it and despite being a Ukrainian based in Germany he's been quite a big character in British boxing over the last six or so years Ever since the David Haye fight he's been known about. Of course beating Haye probably didn't hurt his popularity :lol1:

Imagine if khan got hit on chin with power

This. I'm no fan of premature stoppages either but you just have to look at Geroge Groves last opponent to know wht can happen when one guy gets beat up on. I also like fights to go on until the guy gets stopped completely but sometimes it's just unnecessary. At Wlad's age there's no point in risking his life. His legs looked gone after the first knockdown, the second knockdown he wasn't walking straight when he got up and Joshua looked fresh so it was a matter of time until Wlad caught another big shot

you could see Joshua moments away from another Uppercut he was lining up about to throw it and would have landed bc Wlad was leaning back would never seen it coming and it would be the end ina brutal k.o...i usually dont like short stoppages but he already was down and hurt prior.

Shame on vitality on not teaching wlad defend uppercuts

Come on your ruining it for me ......i had a whole story planned had he bought into it.:boxing: :rofl: that uppercut was so f**king vicious that I was actually thinking that ridiculous photoshop could have been legit...lmao I mean sh*t, Wlad is a BIG dude, and big ass dudes like that got big ass necks...so I was like http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/000/273/064/379.jpg

o ,slow mo replay actually shows the neck stretches that far ......Wlad does have a very long neck and that shyte got stretched out ,any further and one can envision it comes off like a bad B movie (ever see that scene from Killer Klowns from outer Space) where the clown puts on boxing gloves and decapitates the motorcycle bully ? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/content/dam/boxing/2017/04/29/TELEMMGLPICT000127274268-large_trans_NvBQzQNjv4BqS8LvVGaCov9_zEWH2d7j7f7uG-EXu1vQjA186ek-eCk.jpeg Here's the real picture man, was still incredible. May be the best uppercut I've seen since...Bailey/Mike Jones? That was a monstrous punch as well haha

Yeah it's photoshopped, still was an incredible uppercut. May be the best uppercut I've seen since...Bailey/Mike Jones?

I know that uppercut was A++, but was this photoshopped?? Sheesh, man. F**king brutal. Yeah it's photoshopped, still was an incredible uppercut.

Nobody has really mentioned the fact that Joshua pulled his head down before he landed the punch... should the punch be thought of as illegal?

It was nice to see someone make Klitschko pay the price for clinching.

oh please...Wlad got up twice and wasn't even stunned when the fight was stopped...a pu$$y referee for a pu$$y generation...if this was the 70s/80s/90s fight wouldn't have never been stopped Shut up ....your man lost so deal with it sore loser lol

bruh imagine khan getting rocked by that the frontrow would of had pieces of jaw. Play Naseem Hamed's somersault entrance into the ring in reverse. That's what would happen to Khan.
