AJ-Wlad - Wembley

[Master]

Amazes me with these "early stoppage" bods (some American journos saying it too). Lets ignore the fact Wlad didn't even complain about it but he couldn't pull his arms free from the ref let alone adequately protect himself from Joshua.

At the time I thought it was early, huge build up massive event , 20 quid each, 10 year reigning hw champ

He takes 3 punches the ref stops it

And you're right he didn't complain, but on a rewatch he wanted it stopped, sums up the big girls blouse 👚

What was the point complaining the ref is not going to change their mind.

I do not think the fight should have been stopped then but it would have more than likely been eventually stopped.

I think wlad wanted it stopped

He was looking at the ref constantly after the first knock down in the 11th

I'm not complaining about the stoppage, I'm complaining about wlad

It's been confirmed this broke the UK PPV buys record of 1.5 Million

'We can't tell you the number last night because it's too early but the record was 1.5million for Manny Pacquiao against Floyd Mayweather (in 2015). Last night beat that for sure.'

I thought it was a little early but would have ended soon after. With the knockdowns in that round Wlad would have needed a knockout to win going into the 12th. Would have been interesting to see what happened.
