How was the card up for Joshua?
Couldn't believe he didn't go from that
Such a shot
It was crazy!!
Best Heavyweight fight in a long long time
Quality fight.
Looked like he was just playing for rounds after that. The younger recovered from it though and unleashed in the 11th. Jesus what a fight.
Haven't seen them, non-stop reply on my TV.
That's boxing, when it goes off it goes off.
An absolute classic.
Best heavyweight match I have seen since Lewis-Klitschko.
I rarely watch boxing, but this was quite exciting. How often does it happen that it swings like this?
If that had gone the distance I would have won 200 or 400 quid depending on who won. Bastards!
Wlad staying on his feet after that uppercut, Jesus Christ.
Fair play to Joshua. Came back from the knock down to win. Father time eventually caught up with Klitschko and he couldn't recover from Joshua's final onslaught. Klitschko destroys AJ in his prime.
Should just get Wlad to coach him
Joshua is a monster, what a come back,
one has to admire Klitschko as well, took some really heavy punches. What a bout that was.
Incredible

No interest in a rematch now, to be honest. The direction for both is pretty clear, surely? Make Joshua - Wilder happen.
I was too, and have been critical of him in the past, but it's hard not to be impressed with him today.
Bookies won tonight, no way they got much backing for a late Joshua KO.
Should just get Wlad to coach him
That would be amazing actually!
I don't watch Haye's fights. Absolutely can't stand the way he hypes them and how cocky he is for a fighter who was beaten by his little toe.
Joshua clearly spends less time running his mouth and more time putting the real work in.
He started going for it hence I commented that Klitchko's showing heart for the first time in his career, but then he suddenly decided to go for points.
Man, one of them lands a punch on my head and it fecking flies off, they're amazing. All the stamina, all the footwork, Wlad being 41, it's fecking amazing.
He is just ridiculous. He can go out with his head high and his bank balance even higher.
The world's his Oyster!
That was a proper heavyweight clash great to watch
Finally a massive fight living up to its billing.
2 judges had AJ up, one judge had him up by 4 if im remembering correctly!
Brilliant fight. Enjoyed that.
At this weight, almost never
Fury surely is the king now?
Fantastic fight!
Joshua was winning for two of the judges.
Wilder will set ludicrous demands & the fight won't happen. Fury is more likely, and honestly, would be the better fight if he can find that same level of motivation he had before the Wlad fight.
Real shame how trash the HW division actually is.
Super props to him! It was a masterclass performance from Wlad! I'm so happy and sad at the same time!
Age won the day. That just happens in sport.
This match has made Joshua unstoppable in a weak division. He had the power but today he learned how to endure power, how to not give up and how to box after the seventh run.
Cannot see anyone defeating him for a long time.

Holy feck. Wladimir has incredible chin.
