It was a great fight... but I kind of feel the consensus is that way because it was a bigger/more important fight, not a better fight. The consequence of which being 2 fold.... 1) More people saw it and 2) It sticks in the mind more, because of the size of the event and because they had a dog in the fight. Also... Degale Vs Jack was in January... people have short memories.... but yeah... like I say, I was at Wembley for AJ Vs Klit... so I'm not knocking it.... it was a tremendous event, backed up by a great HW fight... a fantastic night.... I watched Degale Vs Jack on the tele... and I just couldn't believe the heart shown in that fight. Jack had such a size advantage and Degale was taking a beating... but he just kept going... it was one of the best fights I've seen in years.
Joshua vs Klitschko. First big fight in a while that lived up to the hype and then some. I watched it in a bar full of casuals and it was the best atmosphere I've ever seen in a pub for a sporting event, and that's including the big football games
I would go with that.
Beer all over the place in the 11th.
Full on 'oooh Anthoony Jooooshua' chants after the fight. Was immense.
