Grade Joshua's performance

[Dariusz]

B+. A classy big puncher would have finished Pulev in 3rd round.

[Dr. Z]

B for me. He's still too cautious. Pulev won 2-3 rounds, but if he was younger and had more energy this could have been a much closer fight.

C+

Wasn't exciting but effective! Patient with that Jab, showed better head movement

[JakeTheBoxer]

C. Good enough for finish Pulev, but Ruiz would take Joshua out again in that kind of fight.

[Guest]

It's a small thing, but I note that the 39-year-old Pulev has quickly become "40" in NSB.

[Earl-Hickey]

B+

He did almost everything he needed to do without it being amazing

[deathofaclown]

6/10

Still looked like a big stiff robot but good finish

[Robbie Barrett]

Joshua needs to go the distance with the Wallin's of the world to really get respect.

[GM Jay]

5/10

I mean, did he do what he was expected to do against a 40 year old euro level that Wlad blasted out in two rounds over five years ago?

Back to blasting black fighters I see

This guy is a racist little b1tch every week, it's just a different black fighters turn

[alexguiness]

C plus for a great finish.

The people who gave him an A must be children allowed to stay up and watch the fight daddy ordered on PPV.
