Comments Thread For: Joshua Gets Off The Floor, Knocks Klitschko Out in Eleventh

[eco1]

Fact is Tyson did the job in much easier fashion. As the stats suggest barely got out of 1st gear and bamboozled Wlad all night making him second guess with feints. He completely shut down a younger Wlad fighting in his hometown. AJ sc****d through with everything in his favor

I love Fury, he is a character.
But if the Vlad that showed last night would have showed in that fight, I think Vlad would have won.

GREAT FIGHT!

Wlad fought well honestly, he just didn't commit when he should've. I hate to sound like that guy cause hindsight is 20/20 but I just feel the right hand was there even when Wlad was missing it, Joshua was too hurt to counter effectively. And who'd have thunk it, Joshua tied Wlad up more than the other way around??? if I'm not mistaken. Great fight. Fury's a good fighter, but this was the kind of fight the HW division needed and a lot of that credit goes to Wlad for not folding and not looking like the shot fighter many predicted he is.

What a fight. Respect to both men and I'm a huge fan of them both but I'm glad Joshua took it.

The Brits put on a great show for a great heavyweight fight

Joshua vs Klitschko was a battle of two warriors in front of 90,000 great british boxing fans. Congratulations to the UK for showing the world what a great fight can do for the sport of boxing. Two class acts fighting and rabid fans cheering them on. A perfect day for boxing in the UK. Could Wilder draw 90,000 USA fans in 10 fights?

Great great fight. Easily the best HW fight in my lifetime that I've seen. Props to Wlad for showing the grit and heart of a true champion, even in defeat.

UK is hot for boxing now. I hope AJ's emergence can help the sport over here in the US. Casuals just want to see big guys in exciting action fights. That's why they have been gravitating towards MMA in recent years, coinciding with the Klitschko Era.

AJ-Wilder, let's go!

Still hard for you to give Klit credit.

Dude fought a young lion with olympic predigree and almost beat him at 41 years but still btchin.

You're ridiculous trying to paint this fight as a shut out, it wasn't, you're being a sht poster as usual.

Why should I give a cheater credit? He's made a career of using illegal tactics. He should've been DQ'd against Povetkin in one of the most disgusting fights I've ever seen and his career was saved by holding/leaning his body on his opponents to neutralize and physically tire them out.

AJ was no lion, he's a cub. 18 pro fights, barely turned pro in his 20's, never been 12 rounds, he's green. It was pretty evident as the guy didn't even know how to pace himself and was punched out by round 5.

Exactly. Wilder should be made to fight klitschko for the privilege of fighting the new king. Klitschko destroys wilder with the form he showed there.[/QUOTE]

You do know he wouldn't fight Wilder the same, please tell me you do? Wlad was pressing the fight because he knows Joshua cant fight off his back foot and he's slow. Wilder still throws off his back foot and is more athletic.

Wilder is **** and always chooses the weakest opponents. Worst WBC champ ever.

[jonnyc420]

pretty much the same type or better fighters that make up joshuas whole resume before wlad.....

Yeah in more than double the fights. That clown wouldnt even dream of stepping in the ring with Klitschko in less than 20 fights. He is happy fighting bums and calling out big names

[Caught Square]

Look how salty Joseph Parker was when Joshua won

Say the guy with Andre Ward in his AVY...

Double standards, you're just hating on eastern euro fighters.

Just admit you hate the euro boy and stop with your bias nobody gives a sht about...

Josh is an Olympic champion, not a cub by miles...

Klit is 41 years old for 220 pounds, what do you expect from him?
Fight like a lil Loma?

Ho I said Loma, Language,another fighter you dislike in your agenda.
