Joshua just marmalised him with a right cross (?).

All square after 6 for me.

Boom.

very good finish from aj

cdav · « **Reply #58004 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:45:41 pm »

All over, Joshua finishes him with a few heavy blows

Joshua still looks vunerable at times but when given the chance he has the power to finish a lot off

Sky just love AJ don't they

Flush right hand, game over!

Slow start but fireworks at the end.

sminp · « **Reply #58008 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:46:53 pm »

What a finish! I was worried after rounds 1 and 2 but credit to him he made a good comeback and a brilliant knockout

Djozer · « **Reply #58009 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:46:53 pm »

Good battle, that. Fair play Joshua.

This commentary is terrible, keep it in your pants ffs. Top performance from AJ

WhereAngelsPlay · « **Reply #58011 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:47:21 pm »

Corner man was stopping it anyway.

Cannot wait for him to take on Wilder

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #58012 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:47:22 pm »

Few times Joshua has took a few hits early and come back well so fair play!

Hopefully Fury or Wilder can do something. Still make AJ favourite any way.

One of the best fighters this country has produced in god knows how long, it's not surprising really. Plus, he's not a total wanker outside the ring.

The slow motion replays of those shots look vicious.

You mean Troy, "Uruk Hai" Deeney?

El Lobo · « **Reply #58022 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:49:47 pm »

I’d love to see him connect on Fury like that

LovelyCushionedHeader · « **Reply #58023 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:49:52 pm »

Not a boxing expert but I thought the ref was a bit mental letting that carry on after the knockout. The guy nearly threw himself out of the ring trying to stand up.

RedSince86 · « **Reply #58024 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:50:01 pm »

That first right hook was brutal.

Credit to Povetkin getting up from that.

He has nothing to worry about from those 2 clowns Wilder and Fury.

Na, getting up off the canvas to knock out Klitschko all day.

Red-Soldier · « **Reply #58026 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:50:45 pm »

He's the best of the bunch at HW, that's for sure.

I'd love to see him fight Wilder though.

Aye. Reckon Fury would get his weird gorilla arms in the way somehow though. He's good at that.

lorenzo · « **Reply #58028 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:51:00 pm »

I think more i watch Aj, that Wilder will take Aj and in the rematch Aj will win.

Clayton Bigsby · « **Reply #58029 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:51:07 pm »

It'sa good win but needs a 50/50 ish type fight now. Has to fight Wilder/Fury winner in April though he wants Whyte 2

Fury is awkward. Could win on points. Wilder has the knockout punch

But yeah you'd still make AJ favourite

rocco · « **Reply #58031 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:51:39 pm »

Fair play Joshua but Povetkin 39 and no Tyson

Yeah, he could have stopped it there, but he was on his feet, so standing count had to be given.

Its just the nature of the division though isnt it. It's like half the people he fights aren't that good and the other half are old. That's not his fault obviously it's just the division right now. He's a better boxer than Wilder but I hope if Wilder catches him good (which can be done as we've seen in AJ fights) then it's goodnight and Fury is still gonna be out of shape if that fight ever comes around.

I still struggle to realistically see anyone beating him.

sminp · « **Reply #58036 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:54:48 pm »

Some of those punches Povetkin just ate look more and more horrendous every time I see them.

Lee-87 · « **Reply #58037 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:55:08 pm »

Might not be popular opinion but i'm not a fan of Joshua in the slightest. I'm more convinced now than ever that Wilder KO's him, Wilder is nothing special as a boxer but Joshua has too many flaws and openings not to get in some serious trouble against heavy hitters, a bit like Wlad before Manny Steward got a hold of him.

Red-Soldier · « **Reply #58038 on:** September 22, 2018, 10:55:57 pm »

Wilder has got the biggest chance of them all against AJ. He can win with one punch.

Fury is shot I think. He's awkward in his prime, but he's past it I think.

Fair points, just think they go way over the top like he's the reincarnation of Joe Louis
