  • True Fact: Klitschko let Joshua off the hook after the KD...

    Are we all trying to fool ourselves here? We're all acting as if we didn't see Joshua on queer street in the 6th round after Klitschko landed a guided missle directly on Joshua's face.

    Joshua was hurt and stumbling all over the ring in a drunken stupor. This was the opportunity for Klitschko to end the show and he did absolutely nothing to finish him off. On top of that, Klitschko lets Joshua recover in the following rounds which eventually leads to stoppage in the 11th.

    Joshua's stock would've taken a massive blow if he lost to the aging boxer and the only reason I think he won was because there was a deal happening behind the "boxing scene"...

    Years of experience meant he didn't want to rush in and punch himself out, Joshua punch himself out after knocking down Wlad in the 5th round, you saw how Wlad came back right? Wlad was probably looking at that too.

        Except he didn't. After Joshua got up - Wlad went after him and tried to land the left hook. Joshua Avoided it.

        Does Joshua get credit for avoiding the KO punch whilst hurt? Or does the punch you wanted to land take precedent?

          Lol nah he wanted the KO badly. Once again, look at the crushing left hooks he threw and missed.

          Wlad has been criticised for not finishing fights during his reign even to the point where he was accused of stalling the stoppage for more money or whatever.

          You can't expect him to turn into prime Tyson and unload combos to finish him that's just not his style. Guys like Pulev who has no head movement got finished by the left hook.

            He threw single punches. Did you see the barrage of punches Joshua threw that eventually ended the fight? Why couldn't Wlad do something similar. It would've been game over if he did.

              "He threw single punches."

              He was looking to land the left hook and he didn't.

                That's how i saw it too. Joshua was done and Klitschko let him rest for a few rounds.

                  Klitschko has never been a combination puncher, and he was tired himself.
