    No need to hate on Joshua because the judges gave him a gift. He has a massive upcurve and most are excited to see what he can do in the Ams and Pros...

    It wasn't his fault admittedly its just that decision has left a sour taste in my mouth. I can not stress how impressed I was with Savon, I haven't seen a heavyweight move like that since maybe Ali. I'm not comparing him to Ali don't get me wrong but that guy is insanely talented.

      Oh yeah most definitely! Savon looked like the real deal, interested to see him in the Am World Championships for sure. Hopefully a rematch with big Josh for Gold?

        I saw Joshua at the Olympics in the semi-finals (which he shouldn't have been there) and thought he was pretty impressive. The final was close but not a robbery..

          I never thought he was as good as everyone makes out, he didn't deserve the gold though I can't fault him for that cause he wasn't the one scoring the fight. Great he stayed in the amateurs he still has much to learn. But I can see him being britains next big thing in years to come

            He got KTFO by an Azerbaijan road sweeper a couple of months previously, so I wouldn't get too excited, it's more likely that Joshua had an off night.

              That ''Azerbaijan road sweeper'' is a massive puncher who also beat Anthony Joshua as well and won a gold at the worlds. He got an olympic bronze losing out to Camarelle by a single point.

              Joshua had no off-night, he got out-boxed and made to look ridiculously slow and plodding by a faster, slicker, flat-out better boxer and got a gift.

              With fair judging, Erislandy Savon beats him 9 times out of 10.
              He had such an off-night he made Erislandy look every bit as brilliant his uncle, Felix.

                One of his victors in the amateur ring is now a professional, Dillian Whyte.
                Dillain Whyte looks pretty good indeed (Till he got busted for PEDS) he is a very big HW with what seems a huge reach. Plus he's only 23-24 so has plenty of time left. He does seem to keep his hands down so hopefully once he steps up he will defend a little better. One thing I do like about Dillain is that he is good entertainment. He wants to hurt his opponent and puts everything into his punches.

                  The Azerbaijan who "beat" Joshua by one point

                  In Azerbaijan

                  That guy?

                  Come off it, you just sound like a hater, well... That's no surprise

                  Anyway don't worry boutiques Savon, you'll see him every 4 years at the Olympics, and one day when Joshua wins a world title, you can use that night against Savon to says joshuas no good

                    One thing he doesn't do is get stopped with ease by cammarale like a certain Mr David Price.

                      ivan Dycho was called by all boxing sources in Europe as the next Vitali. He was even called a 'Klit Clone' by posters. 6'9, super athletic. Joshua literally walked him down and broke him down mentally in the third round. If that had been a real fight instead of helmet boxing, Joshua would have tko6 Ivan. Easily. You could tell Ivan bleeds (it already started with blood from his nose) Joshua would have ended him.

                      Nobody cares about helmet combat. In real combat (12 round matches) Joshua would have knocked out Roberto and Ivan in the next 3-4 rounds. They were clearly gassing and out on their feet.
